Movie Makeing Tips
Windows MovieMaker 2011  makes it easy for just about anyone to make movies on their computer. Just build your storyboard, edit your clips, add music, and you’ll have your first movie ready to go! 

TIPS
  • Save often
  • Save all components to the same location or production folder
  • Create production folders and save all of our files to a CD or to the desktop.
  • Use a storyboard template to plan your production.
  • To create a narration for your production use short narratives by saving the sound files in sequential order into a sound file folder.
  • If you want both narration and music consider placing your narration in your project – saving it as a movie.  Then opening a new project and import your movie – now you can add a second layer of sound.
