It may seem daunting, but editing video has gotten much easier. Just look at the millions of homemade videos on websites, such as YouTube and MySpace.

My personal favorite is
Microsoft Photostory that converts your still pictures into a nice animated movie with pan, zoom and titles as you see on the National Discovery channel.
