muvee™ autoProducer 5
Thanks to muvee™ autoProducer 5, the home videos that I take of my vacations and grandchildren can now be turned into exciting presentations that friends and relatives may actually enjoying watching.
The muvee™ software is easy to install and use. In fact, it's the easiest video editing and creation software that I've seen. There are four main steps to creating a masterpiece: select your media; select an editing style; click "make muvee;" and, save or burn your muvee™.
You simply select the videos and still pictures you want to use, choose the background music, and set a few simple options like the sequence. Then the software creates the movie automatically doing all the tedious editing work for you. autoProducer adds three new useful features - Magic Moments, Magic Spot, and Tweak Movie - that allow you to make changes to your video quite easily. You don't have as much freedom as you would with a high-end professional video editing program, but you also don't have half the work.
This software handles still pictures and does a great job of automatically synching background music to the movies. 24 different styles of movie are included and more can be purchased from the muvee™ website. The software produces a preview for your review, so, if you don't like the style you selected, you can choose another and preview it instantly. The styles are unique and appealing. They really set this program ahead of their competition. There is something for every movie task with slow dissolves in some and fast-paced cuts in others. The only drawback that I've found is that I had trouble inserting the audio from the movies into the sound track that plays in the background.
The muvee™ software does an especially good job with short video clips and facial close-ups which makes it perfect for home movies. The videos that autoProducer creates are unique and very professional-looking. In fact, some professional video creators use this program to edit their short video clips before they import them into their professional software.
If you want to turn your home movies into compelling videos, autoProducer is certainly up to the task. It will make your simple movie-producing tasks easier and less time-consuming. In fact, using autoProducer can make you feel like your computer is a digital production studio and you're a video pro.
