Hello I am looking to break into movie making. I have always dabbled and am going to a for film major in school and wanted to get my feet wet. Basically I am looking for someone to point me in the right direction because I don't know what tools to use. I have the footage and the ideas, I just need to make it reel.

What do I need to use to start at a menu, play a clip based on selection, show a different menu, play a clip based on selection? This is going to be based off of a vacation and wanted to make the video for a family member that couldn't go and to learn some new skills.

Thanks for all the help I can't wait to get working on this. I've always wanted to produce a movie.
