Adobe Premiere/Final Cut Pro are the industry standard - both are really powerful and don't have too steep of a learning curve, and I'm sure you could just YouTube anything you don't know how to do. I'd recommend these over any free software because they're more stable and user-friendly, and have lots of built-in features that you won't get with barebones free apps.
As for screen-capture software, I've heard Total Screen Recorder is good and has an uncrippled free version. I think the only downside of using the free version of Fraps or Bandicam is the watermark and a limit on how long you can record for.
