    Windows Move Maker is super basic and simple and would work well for making a still image video.

    If you want something more advanced but still easy to use then Sony Vegas is my top pick, it can easily do what Premiere can but I find it easier to use and better laid out.

    I have never used final cut so cant speak for that.

    You could also do that in Flash animation. Either way, you have plenty of options ahead of you but you need to sit down and actually play with the software (whether it is Flash animation, Final Cut, etc.) to see which one is easier to use for you.

    P.S. Posting the same thread in multiple sections of a forum is considered cross-posting. You might have good intentions but that doesn't stop it from violating most, if not all forums rules.
