Making Movies (or Slide Shows)

Playing a movie in the computer is different from making a movie in the computer. Playing your own movie in the computer is simple, just make sure you have the right movie player installed.

Making a movie requires a movie making program. The latest Microsoft Vista (Home Premium Edition) Operating System has included a Windows Movie Maker Program. It is a good start using this program to learn how to make movies. See example in this blog.

Movie making is grouping a set of pictures to form a movie or slide presentation show with background music. To make the movie more interesting, effects and transistions can be added onto each picture. This is one major difference between movie slide and PowerPoint presentations. The movie made can further be burnt into DVD – playable in standard DVD players or in the computer.

The movie made can also be published in the web or upload to youtube.

Some common movie players include:

1) Windows Media Player
2) QuickTime Player
3) RealPlayer
4) DivX Player
Others like iTune, etc.
