Video editing is not just for professionals. Even if you have just started exploring this multimedia environment, you can still find software that's easy for you to use.
Windows Live Movie Maker is a video editing tool that enables you to transform images, audio files, and short clips into full-blown movies.
The interface is very user-friendly, and you don't need a tutorial to get you through Movie Maker.
A movie needs a few elements to become a movie, right? In this software you can add your standard photos, videos, movies, and text. But the interesting part is that you have to mix them together somehow.
Windows Live Movie Maker lets you choose between AutoMovie themes (which are very nicely designed), transitions (which can be slightly configured), visual effects, and text for title, captions and credits.
Music can be attached to the entire movie or just to a portion of it. The movie itself can be "expanded" (i.e. a caption remains on screen longer before switching to another one) to fit the music if the audio track has a larger length.
The whole project can be then saved as a Windows Media Video File, even for high-definition display. You can also publish your new movie online, on social media websites or others (plug-ins can be added).
CPU and memory are highly required.
Windows Live Movie Maker is not a complex program, so you can't adjust every detail, but it has all the necessary and suffice elements for creating a standard and yet professional-looking video file. And it's free!

Movie Maker has taken advantage of new technology in Windows 8 to smooth out your wobbly videos. Just select the shaky video and choose from a variety Video stabilization options and Movie Maker will smooth it out.
· Music: The one thing that can really make a difference in a movie is the soundtrack. But it can be hard to find not only the right piece of music but a version with the appropriate rights. And even if you choose a song from your own collection, it runs the risk of being stripped out once it’s published to YouTube for not having the appropriate rights. So we decided to work with AudioMicro, Free Music Archive and the Vimeo Music Store to make it easy to find music that is not only fitting for video, but also has the proper rights. Now when you go to add music to your movie in Movie Maker, you have the option of ...
