Now we come to the fun part. It is time to make our slides into an actual video, complete with music. We will do this with a simple program that comes bundled with your Windows system, Windows Movie Maker.

In a nutshell, we are going to import our .jpg or .gif “slides” into Movie Maker, arrange them on the storyboard, and add some “mood” music.

Watch this video to see how it’s done.

Another option for the audio file is to narrate your slides using a simple microphone. This is a good idea for instructional type slides.

There are quite a few places on the internet where you can download royalty free music that can be used in your videos. Just search for “royalty free music” and start digging. The great thing about getting decent music is that once you have it, you can use it for all of your videos if you want.

Now that you have completed this process, you should have a wmv file that is ready to upload to video sharing sites.

Now we are going to create a slideshow. To do this properly, we will have to take our script and break it up over several slides. We will be using Windows Paint, which is a free program included with Windows. There are other programs we could use to do this step but Windows Paint is easy to use and it’s free!

Int this step, we are going to use this program to create individual pictures, or “slides”, which we will then insert into Windows Movie Maker (along with background music).

To start off, simply open up the Windows Paint program (if you prefer, you can use any painting program that you have access to).

Watch the video to see the actual process of creating the slides. For demonstration purposes, they are very basic, but you can make your slides look as simple or fancy as you like. Consider changing up the font or adding images or a background color to create more visual appeal.

When you are done with the first slide, save it as an image file (.jpg or .gif) and move onto the next one. To make things easy, save each slide sequentially (example: videoslide-1, videoslide-2, and so on) so you know what order to put them in when it is time to make the video slideshow.

Now, let’s take a look at different methods for creating your own videos:

1. Free Method: This involves using two programs that you should already have on your computer, Windows Paint and Windows Movie Maker. This isn’t the fastest way, but it’s free!

2. Paid Method: This is how I personally make my videos and I suspect that most people do it this way. It involves using Microsoft Power Point and a video screen capture tool called Camtasia.

The first method will give you the option of being able to produce a quality videos for free, but the second method is the most optimal way to make quality videos fast.

If you are just starting out, try the free method first. Once you start to see the benefits of video marketing, you may want to “graduate” to the paid method.
