If you have a Mac and a video camera, there is a nifty tool called iDive (“the iPhoto of video”). Good program if you want to organize your shots, it integrates into Final Cut Pro or iMovie, lets you keep compressed versions of the footage. And it gets good to very good ratings across the range.

When you are filming interviews, it helps a great deal in editing to have the interview written down on paper. For the Mac there is a lovely tool called Transcriva. It takes up the feel of iChat and uses the same approach for transcription. It also notes down the times - a great timesaver. $19.99 well spent.
