Why Movie Maker?
It’s FREE!!!
It’s FLEXIBLE!!
What can I do with it in the classroom?
Create videos Picture slideshows Narrate United Streaming video
clips Use as language lab Publish completed projects
Just to name a few!!
Do I need any special
equipment? You WILL NOT need any
special equipment for most projects beyond a video camera or digital camera.
EXCEPTION—
** Depending on the equipment at your school you may need a firewire cable and adaptor. *See your ITRT for specifics.
Maybe—Maybe not
Is it hard to use?
Online Tutorials
a. Atomic Learning- Great tutorial broken into small audio/video segments
a. Window XP tutorial- Basic how to site
NO!!
The Dreaded RED X All files used in MovieMaker
project must be saved in the same folder. (for example, video/music clips and pictures)
MovieMaker does not import files, it creates a reference to the location of the file.

What type of projects can I produce?
Save to the computer Post projects to web Create a CD Send as an e-mail attachment Create a DVD (This requires
manually saving file as a dv-avi file and might require additional software, such as Roxio DVD maker.)
**The computer default settings will automatically save projects according to file size needed. You may also change file size to manually for specific needs.
