Podcasting, Documentaries, Ted Talks, oh my!: Documentary

*You can use Moviemaker to make a documentary or your TED talk. Movie maker allows you add content and edit it, then save it as a Movie file.

If you are creating a documentary using Movie Maker, you need to create a folder where you put all your pictures, video, and where you save the Movie Maker project while you are working on it.

1.) Make sure your Office 365 account is synced with the computer you are working on.

2.) Create a folder and name it AP Lang Documentary (or TED Talk)

3.) Save ALL pictures, videos, and audio files (including those that you record yourself) in this folder.

4.) Save the Movie Maker project in this folder while you are working on it.

This video will walk you through MovieMaker.

You first have to upload your videos into Moviemaker.

In order to do so, you must get them from your phone or camera into the folder you created.

Once they are in that folder, open Moviemaker.
