Intro to Video Effects (Video Primer)

We will be using MS Photo for this project.- it has an easy interface and has a lot of functionality. Yes… it also does Video!- who knew!!!

Life has gotten so easy that now may applications simply let you select, position, size, anchor, and save- I will demo in class,

Unfortunately, the effects are generic… but that’s where your creativity and sensitivity come in!

Please note YOU CAN GO TOO FAR!!!

In this project, I want you to think about a 15 to 30 seconds video that uses Titles and texts, Music and some effects.

 

Requirements:

Your video MUST be/include:

  • 15-30 seconds long
  • Intro and outro credit slides.
  • Text
  • Soundtrack

Process

  1. Check out the available effects in the Photo program in Win10
  2. THINK!!!
  3. Storyboard your Idea
  4. Shoot your video
  5. Transfer it into “Photo” in Win10
  6. Place effects where and when you want them- Remember to Ancorh them to the space you want!
  7.  Add begging and end credits/intro/outro etc
  8. Add sound/effects etc
  9. Save to .mp4
  10. Submit on Teams

This should take 2 hours.

 

Video file types supported by MS PHOTO:

.MOV

.MP4

.WMV

.JPG

But, it doesn’t seem to like files with an extension of .MPG.
