etc.
• usually one-page limit.

Aspirations / Effort
3. State of Problems /Conflicts

 STORY BOARD - ing
Definition :
a graphic organizer in the form of
illustrations or images displayed in
sequence for the purpose of pre-
visualizing a motion picture, animation,
motion graphic or interactive media
sequence.
 STORY BOARD
In animation and special effects work, the
storyboarding stage may be followed by
simplified mock-ups called "animatics" to
give a better idea of how the scene will
look and feel with motion and timing.

Benefits :
1. identify all of the logistics needed for your project,
2. determine the flow of the plot,
3. determine necessary techniques, such as:
• camera angels you will use,
• what graphics you might need,
• determine where you might need sound effects,

providing everyone in your team

with a detailed visualization of the
final product so shooting and
editing will be efficient and well
organized.

Free Movie/Clip Editing Apps:
Step 3: Editing
Analog vs. Digital Media
• Analog – records footage as
waves of information
• Digital – records information as 0s and
1s

Add titles, transitions,

and effects.
 Advantages Of Digital Media
• Easy to capture with a computer
• Do not degrade or lose quality as you
copy them
• Easy to share and distribute
 Linear vs. Nonlinear Editing
• Linear – Lay down edits
sequentially without the
capability of inserting
footage
• Nonlinear – Cut, copy, and
paste or insert clips
anywhere, like text in word
processing
 Importing vs. Inserting
• Files must first be imported into Movie
Maker from your computer before they can
be inserted into the Movie Maker timeline/
storyboard for editing
 Importing vs. Capture
• Importing – pulling digital media from your
computer into Movie Maker (anything you import
must already be on your computer)
• Capture – pulling media from a device either
onto your computer or directly into Movie Maker
 Capturing From Analog Devices
• You must first convert or digitize analog
materials using a Media Converter
• Digitized analog materials must be saved
on your computer before they can be
imported into Movie Maker
 Importing: How It Works
• All of the materials that you import into Movie
Maker are not physically copied into Movie
Maker
• Movie Maker stores shortcuts to these “source
files” in its Collections, which point to wherever
they are saved on your computer
 Importing: a Word Of Caution

• You cannot move source files around on your

computer after you have imported them, or
Movie Maker will not be able to find them for your
project in order to render your movie
• BEFORE YOU BEGIN, it is good to copy all of
the files into one permanent “project folder,” and
to then import them into your project
 Importable File Formats
• Video files: .asf, .avi, .mlv, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe,
.mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

• Picture files: .bmp, .dib, .emf, .gif, .jfif, .jpe,

.jpeg, .jpg, .png, .tif, .tiff, and .wmf

• Audio files: .aif, .aifc, .aiff, .asf, .au, .mp2,

.mp3, mpa, .snd, .wav, .wma
 Importing Audio Files
• If you are going to import audio from a cd,
then you must first save the audio tracks
to your computer using the Windows
Media Player, which automatically
converts the standard cd .wav file to a
smaller .mp3 file
 Step 4: Finishing
• Rendering
• Exporting
• Compressing
• Converting
• Burning
 What Is Rendering?
• Rendering – the process of building a
movie from source files so that it can be
viewed on another system, such as a PC
or a DVD player

From Microsoft Windows Movie Maker 2: Do Amazing

Things by John Buechler, p.37
 Projects vs. Movies
• Project – the file you create to edit a movie
together, which can be saved and reopened to
the same state of edit. Project files have the
.MSWMM extension
• Movie – the video file that is rendered when
you export your project once that project is
complete
 Saving vs. Exporting
• Saving – stores a project in its current
state of editing
SAVE OFTEN!
• Exporting – reads the EDL instructions
from your completed project file and
renders a movie file: your final product
 Exporting
• You can export your project to a number of
compression settings, determined by the
purpose of your project and the planned method
of distribution
• It is possible to import a movie file that has been
exported back into Movie Maker for further
editing
 Exportable File Types
• WMV (Windows Media Video) – which
can be set to a variety of compression
standards
• AVI (Audio-Video Interleaved) – which
is lossless
 Compression: What It Does
• Makes a file smaller so that it takes up
less space on your computer or a CD
• Allows a file to be more easily copied
from one place to another, which is
useful for transferring files across the
Internet
 Considerations:
• Final project duration
• Taking shots timing and location
• Team – member roles
• More details the better
