Lego Phone Home - Windows Movie Maker

Daniel has been using a digital camera to try and make a story using multiple pictures. He showed me one of the things he has done and I told him that I'll show him how to make it into a short movie.

We used Windows Movie Maker and I showed him how to import the pictures and we tried to figure out the settings on how to make the pictures go faster. The initial setting on Windows Movie Maker is to play each picture for 5 seconds and we had to shorten it so it will go to the next picture immediately.

I also showed him how to add the Narration and he was able to add sound effects on the video.

Here's the 1st video that I helped him create.

Daniel then looked at some functions on Windows Media Maker, like Titles, Transitions and effects and added them to his video. Here's his finished video with the effects.


I believe there are a couple more picture stories that Daniel took. I told him that he can create his videos when I'm not using the computer.
