For now, what I recommend is, use what you know. If you don't want to use the programs you know, because you feel that they are too limited in their functions, then a more advanced editing program that you don't know. All in all, editing programs are vehicles. They get you from point A to point B. Some get you there faster than others. How fast you get to point B really depends on how well you know how to drive the vehicle. Someone who knows Windows Movie Maker like the back of their hand versus someone who knows Premiere Pro CS3 only slightly...the Windows Movie Maker user will complete their project faster, although Premiere Pro CS3 is a faster vehicle. -- just an example.

The lighting didn't come out exactly as I had planned. The cheap construction lights that I got for $15 each didn't do that well for a fill light. That's the reason why the left side of the talent's faces is very dark. Next time I'll probably get myself a second light to add to the key effect, or maybe just a brighter light source. The best option will probably be a mirror...using it to reflect sunlight coming in as a fill light. onto the other side of the face. You can see this example on "Being a camcorder pro" article.
