This video editing software comes with more than 1,500 transitions, effects and other material. You can choose themes to go along with your movie. Pinnacle Studio also comes with three audio tracks where you can place audio files.

The help and support for this software is not as effective as the support for other products we reviewed. Some options cost money, and it takes a while to receive a response with the free email tech support.

Pinnacle Studio has more effects and transitions than other applications we reviewed; however, it only has a few tracks where you can place video, audio and effects. This may not be a problem if you want to create simple projects only. If you want to add many clips that overlap one another, this software may not be up to the task.
