documents folder will pop up just like below. On the

add text, music and animation to complete my little movie.
At the bottom here is where you can play the video, rewind it and
also forward it to where you want it to go.

You add music the same way you add pictures/videos,
select the music you want onto your movie.
Once you’ve added music it will display and appear like it

song to come in and finish. You can do this by just moving
around the music in the green box to where you want it.

images to have.
You can also select pan and zoom, which is if you want
the images to zoom in as they come appearing onto the
screen.
Effects
