The movie marks the directorial debut of Gordon Willis, the Academy Award-winning cinematographer of " The Godfather ," who makes this movie look very good, but fails to make it a good-looking movie about things we come to care about. The problem's at the script level. "Windows," in its present form, consists only of what happens on the basic ...

Discover how to edit videos with the free Microsoft Video Editor
Open up the Photos app - at the end of the ribbon you'll see the Video Editor option. Click this, then select 'New video project'. Give your video a name and press OK.
There are three panels on the main screen - Project Library, Viewer, and Storyboard (that's your timeline).
With your videos and photos stored in the Project Library, it's a simple case of dragging those clips onto the timeline. From here, it's wildly easy to rearrange clips just by dragging and dropping them into position.
If your clip needs trimming, highlight it and select Trim from the Storyboard tools. Use the handles on the left and right to set a start and stop point for the video. This is useful if you just need to shave an awkward opening or ending from the video. When you're finished tweaking, click Done.
To add titles or captions to your video, click 'Add title card'. This places a new card at the start of your storyboard - though you can drag and drop this deeper into your video if you need it.
Highlight this thumbnail, then press Text to alter the style and words. There are loads of templated fonts and background cards to fit different tones. You're free to edit the duration of title cards in the same way you trim videos - by setting the trim handles to the start and end points.
If the video clip is at least two seconds long, the text will be animated when it appears. Select a style from the list on the right (unfortunately these aren’t customizable), then choose a position. When you’ve finished, click Done.
To see the Motion option, first make sure a photo or video is highlighted. This adds some interesting panning and zooming effects that are particularly effective for still images. Select a frame from the Storyboard, then click the icon and choose a style.
To give your video a totally new look, select Themes 0 it's located in the three-dot menu in the top-right corner. Each theme will add different music to your video, with appropriately styled titles. The app will automatically adjust how long photos are shown to sync with the music.
There are also Instagram-style filters to add a touch of style to your video. Click a video clip or photo, then select the Filters icon and choose an option. All the presets have a vintage look, and sadly aren’t customizable, but there’s quite a wide selection. Make your choice, then click Done to confirm.
You have two options for getting music into your video. In the top-right there is the 'Background music' option, and next to it 'Custom audio'.
If you opt for the video editor's built-in background music, you gain access to a handful of stock audio files. Pick one, preview it, and tick the box 'Sync your video to the music's beat' to keep everything in rhythm. If you need some suitable tunes, we've rounded up some of the best music samples & SFX libraries out there for stock audio.
Custom audio, on the other hand, is simply a space for uploading your own recordings. So, if you've created narration for your video, here is where you'll add that to your video. Click 'Add the audio file', navigate File Explorer to find your music, then click OK. Tracks will be added to your clip, where you'll trim and move the clip to the appropriate part of the video. Select Done to finish.
If the sound in any of your video clips is too loud and drowns out the music, right-click the clip and select ‘Volume’ to turn it down or mute it.
When you’re done, select 'Finish video' and pick a resolution option – Low, Medium, or High. Your choice will determine the picture quality, but you can’t manually set the resolution or frame rate. The video will then be rendered (which might take a while depending on your hardware), encoded in MP4 format and saved in your Pictures folder.
Once that’s done, you're free to share your file so everyone can watch your latest masterpiece.

Apr 30, 2024 · Windows movie maker is part of the windows 10/11 operating system. There is nothing to dislike about the Windows Movie Maker. One can easily edit raw videos. Only thing if they could open all the options in the free version provides only 60 seconds of video editing, wish they would have given more minutes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
