Slideshow + Video + audio background

Carlospr · Post by **Carlospr** » Sat Feb 16, 2008 1:22 pm

I've just started my 30 days trial.

It seems that I can add images with pan & zoom effect and video using the same audio background, can I?

The only way I've found to add images with pan & zoom effect is creating a slideshow which has its own audio background.

Video also has its own audio background as far as I can see.

So I can't integrate images (with effect) and video seamlessly: make both with the same audio background and using transition effect.

I'd be nice if images and video were integrated and editable from one single interface like the Windows Movie Maker.

MovieFactory is primarily a DVD authoring program that allows some editing. For what you want to accomplish, you need a program that is designed primarily for video editing. WMM, is that type of program. I would suggest you download the trial version of VS11+.

In VS11+ you can mix photos and video in the same project, and then add musical backgrounds, that could play thoughout your project. It also has SmartSound Quicktracks to use for this purpose. It allows tailoring the SmartSound music clips to fit nicely with your project, so it does not sound as if you just cut off the music.

Thanks vidoman for your advice.

I started to try VS11+ now and can you please tell me if the download retail version has more templates and things like this ready to use?

I'm asking that because the download size seems to be small compared to DVD MovieFactory.

Thank you in advance.

The trial version only has a couple of templates, the retail will have a total of 68 templates, each which are customizable. Also the trial version does not have a help file. You can download the User Guide from HERE.
