Video editing software
You probably have Windows Movie Maker already installed if you’re running Windows Vista or Windows XP, or if you’re using the school laptops.
Movie Maker is simple to use, and delivers near-professional results. Incorporate video, photos, webcam captures, music, narration and more. For help using Movie Maker, try this link.
Microsoft Photo Story is like Movie Maker, but it works only with digital photos. Fantastic for school projects, Photo Story lets you add motion to your still images, plus you can drop in music and narration. And it’s free. Download it here.
If you have a Mac, you surely have iMovie.
If you have none of these programs, no money to spend, and you want to make movies, try the Open Source Alternative.
