I was wondering whether anyone could recommend a good digital editing software
package that allows me to use CGI.
I like making films and I just wanted to use it for designing and placing
moving images that aren't in the shot in my movie. I have Pinnacle Studio
10 Plus at the moment and I was wondering whether there are any add-ons for
it or if I would be better off with software produced by a different company.
Thank You

Most editing programs have some form of "picture-in-picture" facility - so
that you can fake a tv image in your scene or have a window look out on an
alien planet. Many also have a "blue screen", "Green screen" or "chroma key"
system which lets you insert images filmed against a plain-coloured background
into your movie.
But if you mean real CGI you need something to create the images ... a drawing
and animation package of some kind. You can use Adobe After Effects which
is expensive, Bryce or similar modelling programs. With those you can draw
your dragon against a plain-coloured background and set it loose, then chroma-key
it over your shots of the local town.
