How to Make a Movie On Windows Movie Maker
Windows Movie Maker is a great video editing program, which allows its user to edit different video clips, added with pictures, to create a movie clip. So, if you have a number of videos that you want to convert into one file, in the form of a movie, then nothing can be better than to use Windows Movie Maker, as it is really easy to use and even a novice computer user can operate it. You can add different effects to your videos, such as manipulating colours and speed of the videos, fading the end of a specific scene to black and many others.
