The video editing tool included with Windows XP is Windows Movie Maker. Windows Movie Maker helps you to create a personalized movie with video, still photographs, background music, and narration in a matter of minutes. Titles, transitions, and video effects can all be added to this movie to make it even more unique.
How to Open Video Editor (Windows Movie Maker’s Replacement)
- There is no need to download anything because the Video Editor is already installed on your Windows PC.
- To start the program, type “Video Editor” into the Windows search box, then double-click the icon to launch it.
- The Video Editor feature of the Photos app will open. Click the NEW VIDEO PROJECT button to get started on your project.
- You may now drag and drop your photos into the Project Library in any sequence you choose on the storyboard. You may alter the duration for each image in the movie after it’s on the storyboard, add movement to the photos, text overlay, filters, and more once it’s there.
Free Alternatives to Windows Movie Maker
Openshot is a free open-source application that looks and works like iMovie. It contains a drag-and-drop feature that makes making videos a breeze. Separate tracks can be used to put up graphics, animations, music, effects, and text.
While Shortcut includes many of the same functions as Windows Movie Maker, it has an entirely distinct interface. This is due to the fact that the program was created only for Linux before a Windows version was created.
