Den and I have been collaborating on this video, which has been done with Movie Maker. There are several options in Movie Maker, like putting 'Transitions' between the clips (if it's photographs you can choose a 'transition' to go between each picture). These gradually change from one video or picture to the next rather than suddenly 'jump' to the next one, which makes the whole presentation a lot smoother. Then you can opt for a 'Fade In' or 'Fade Out' on each section of both the video narrative and the MP3 music file attached to the video.
And when what you have for your video does have a commentary with it and you add some MP3 music (as Den and I have in the one above) then there are options for making the video sound predominant; the MP3 sound predominant; or to have them equal. So I have chosen to have the video predominant, and this works brilliantly as the accompaniment MP3 fades into the background every time Den speaks, and then the music comes to the fore when he isn't speaking. So in the video you can actually hear what Den is saying. We should introduce this App to the BBC!!
So I have spent some time today setting this all up and replaced the video that was there before with the newly created one. If you listened to the video before, then please go back and listen to it again. And take note of all the features I have brought into it as mentioned above.
