Windows Movie Maker is a program included with Microsoft Windows. It allows you to make multimedia presentations using graphics, sound, video, and titles. You can easily arrange your multimedia files in a time line and save them as a movie that can play on any Windows computer.
Before you assemble your presentation in Windows Movie Maker (WMM), you should develop a outline of what you want to present and then you should have the appropriate files. In Movie Maker can use:
- pictures or clip art (saved as jpgs or gif)
- Sound files (wav or mp3 files)
- Video files (avi, mpg files)
