The secret to moviemaking success isn't in the amount of cash you spend on
the camcorder, the extra lenses you might buy, or the time you take to master
advanced photographic techniques. The real key to producing a high-quality,
professional movie comes in the editor: and that's why you need Movie Editor Pro
10 silver.
The program starts very simply. If you want to join a few film clips
together, for instance, then just drag and drop them on to the timeline (MPEG,
MOV, AVI and WMV formats are supported), and export the finished results as
Windows Media Video (WMV) file. All finished in the minimum of clicks.
Usually you'll want something a little more complex, of course, so the
program comes with a range of special effects. There's a whole range of filters
to help correct problems with brightness, contrast, sharpness and colour
saturation, for instance. You can precisely crop, resize or reposition an image
with ease, and an excellent Object Curve option helps you rotate, twist, pan or
otherwise animate a clip in a variety of interesting ways.
Movie Editor Pro 10 also provides a flexible Title editor, letting you add
all kinds of animated titles and captions with the minimum of effort. And
there's an impressive selection of transitions. There are the usual wipes and
scrolls if you need them, but the program also provides far more eye-catching 3D
effects, glides, fades, image in image options and more.
For a final touch, add a narration or soundtrack. The program is particularly
versatile here: not only does it support all the sound file formats you'd expect
(WMA, MP3, WAV, Ogg Vorbis, MIDI), but it even lets you drag in your choice of
track from an audio CD.
