Sources For Royalty Free Background Music

Within the last year, You Tube put their foot down and begun shutting down videos guilty of copyright infringement. This doesn’t happen automatically. However, if a video becomes popular, and if the author of the music or the owner of the copyright sees the video and makes a complaint, then it will be shut down. This has happened a number of times, even with popular videos that suddenly lost their appeal overnight, when You Tube yanked the audio portion of the tape.

However, this needn’t happen to you. If you are editing your video footage, you can find a number of sites on the Internet offering royalty free music clips, which you can use for your background.

Adding Captions To Your Home Move

Captions, titles and credits can greatly spruce up a home made video, and with so many effective free video editors on the Internet, there is no reason why any amateur videographer should not add captions to his video. Windows, Movie Maker is one of the most widely known video editors. It is free to download and easy to use.

When Windows downloads video footage, it breaks the full squence into smaller clips, based on a digital window sensing mechanism, which determines where scene changes occur in the film. Once downloaded, video clips can be displayed on the Windows editing board in one of two ways .Either the clips can be dragged, individually into sequential boxes, connected by transition areas, or the scenes can be dragged onto a timeline. Either way, the user now has the option of adding captions to the beginning of the video, before a selected clip, on a selected clip or after a selected clip, or a credit box at the end of the video. When the user adds a caption using, any of the options except “on the clip,” Windows will create a new box in the story line or timeline.

Should a user add a caption to the wrong box, or in the wrong place in the story line, he can always right click on the caption and paste it where he wants it to appear in the story line or time sequence.

To add a caption, a user simply clicks on the caption tab, and selects the appropriate location option in the drop down menu. Then the he types the text in the caption box. Next the user has the option to add special caption effects to the text.

There are a variety of special caption effects. These effects allows the user to determine how the caption will appear, how long it will stay and how it will disappear. The caption can appear all at once, gradually fade in, come in from the left right, top or bottom, scroll in like the captions on Star Wars, swirl in, come in like a newspaper headline, etc. Once the caption has appeared, the editor can choose to have it remain in place, fade out or move off the screen to the left, right top or bottom. The desired effect can be selected for each caption separately.

Now the user can select the size color and style of his caption’s font. He only has to click on the font size link and a box opens up allowing him to make his choice. Windows has a wide variety of fonts to choose from, and a palette of colors and scale of sizes.

To create a subtitle, the user clicks on the link, which places the caption directly on a clip. He clicks on special effects and then clicks on the subtitle effect. The default location is towards the bottom of the frame.The user can choose a different setting, and also can adjust the color. Obviously darker colors are seen well against a lighter screen and lighter colors against a darker screen.

Finally, Windows has a credits screen option. This screen allows the user to close his movie with a scrolling list of credits. When the editor chooses to add credits, Window opens up a box, which is automatically formatted to arrange the text typed into the box into an appropriate credit sequence, such as you might see at the end of any movie.

A home movie editor can come up with many creative ways to use captions, for example, starting a movie with a series of caption boxes and appropriate background music, The text in the boxes introduces the action that is to come
