			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Yeah, really easy with compositing modes like screen, multiply, etc. I actually did muzzle flashes for a couple short films by a guy called Adam Woodworth, Bourbon and Untied were the names of the films. Hitfilm Express is also a free software but one I haven't spent much time on, I think it's pretty decent, but I don't really know my way around it.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Keep an eye out for Vegas on Humble Bundle. The last couple times the new versions of the software have come out, they've given the previous version away for $20. No saying if they'll do it again, but worth watching out for. I can't say enough great things about Vegas, I've used it since the early 2000s (back when it was a Sonic Foundry product!) and aside from being great at editing and a good entry level compositor, it's an amazing audio DAW as well, since audio engineering was Sonic Foundry's forte.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[GIMP is basically a free Photoshop. You can do some effects work/rig removal in it, but going frame by frame is frankly tedious and time consuming. It's a fantastic tool to have, but it can't replace a good editing program; they serve different needs. 

I put a link to Vegas in my above post if you want to click that. The most basic version is $45 right now from the company. (Amazon may be cheaper) While it is a wonderful editor, the cheaper versions can't do rig removal so you'll need to pair it with GIMP to get everything you need.]]></content>

I can get software for either Windows or Mac, but windows is preferred. also, if possible, i'd like the editing software to be ably to add muzzle flashes, etc., and do rig removal. thanks again!]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Under $150 is a tricky number. Not many good ones for money under that number, but there’s a list of pretty good free programs. If your willing to go a little over, I use stopmotion pro for $185 and it’s been excellent. Simple yet powerful interface.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Yep, check out the Free Software List above for some great suggestions. 

However, before we can make more specific suggestions, we need to know a bit more. Are you using a webcam or a DSLR? Webcams can take advantage of free capture software like [url=https://www.charlielee.uk/boats-animator/]Boats Animator[/url], while DSLRs cannot. 

As for editing, if you are using Windows, [url=https://www.vegascreativesoftware.com/us/sem/vegas-movie-studio/]Vegas Movie Studio[/url] is a great choice. I've used an older version and it was perfect for my needs. But if you are using Mac, I don't know.]]></content>
