Windows Movie Maker is one of my favorite tools for creating videos and presentations. The following tutorial gives a good indication of what it’s like to edit with MovieMaker.
I have gradually become better at editing photos and video clips to create montages appropriate for end of year slideshows or videos of a Bride and Groom growing up. The program makes it easy to import videos and pictures, add music and special effects. When I made a wedding slideshow this past summer, the most time consuming part of the whole process was scanning in print photos from many years ago. Once the photos were digital files, I was able to click and drag them to create the effect that I was looking for.

ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this tutorial! I have MovieMaker, and I have hardly explored it because it appears like another "hard to use" software program that is pre-installed when you purchase a new PC. I think I would be able to share a link to this video with students and expect them to understand how to effectively use the program.
