How to Create a Video in Windows Live Movie Maker

Editing Photos and Videos

1. Gather your photos and videos. It is better if you choose pictures and videos on a certain topic you want your movie to be about. It may take some time for the videos (if any) to load.

2. Edit your pictures and videos. Go to the "Edit" bar at the top (Video Tools).

   1. Change the sequence of your contents and rotate the clips if not straight. Additional contents can also be added by clicking the smaller upper icon. The option which appeared when the workspace was empty will not be shown.
   2. Trim your video. Remove the unwanted parts of your movie by trimming them.
      1. There's a trimming tool with which you can trim your video. An alternative to this is to play your video and pause at your unwanted part. Select the "splitting tool" and split your video into two parts. Again trim your unwanted part so that the main part remains and delete the unwanted split.
   3. Select duration of each picture and adjust the speed of your video if you want. The default duration of each picture is 7.00 seconds usually, but with too many photos and videos your video might become too long and bit boring. In this case you can increase the speed of one or all clips.
