Hey guys, I was just curious in what you guys would think is the best software for someone who has no experience with video editing but is very creative as well.

I've fooled around with Adobe Premiere once and was just completely confused at first. I'm looking to make little trailers and demos of my martial arts school so I'd be looking for fading effects, text, music syncing, the usual fun stuff associated with action type video.

Thanks for the help!
