Anyone know how to make a simple video for YouTube?


Recommended Posts

You know, just something like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5S3O2b9NFZ4

with just a single image.

 

Or, how to lay new audio over existing video?

There is somebody requesting something, and I would like to deliver.

 

Thanks.

Well if you were going to do a simple video with a webcam, if you have a PC you can just record the video using said webcam with Windows Movie Maker. Movie Maker makes it really easy (basically plug in the camera, and movie maker runs you through a wizard). I'm sure MACs have a similar application but I'm not a MAC guy. Then upload the video to youtube. I think youtube even has it's own capture software but don't quote me on that.

 

But if you want to get more hardcore, this is my plan to record an audio/video cover of Wilco song:

 

- Have video camera set up in front of band.

 

- Have mics setup (room mics, vocal mics, etc.)

 

- Mics are running into Pro Tools.

 

- Record audio and video at the same time (live).

 

- Bounce audio to WAV file.

 

- Plug camera to PC and bounce video to avi.

 

- Combine audio and video files in Adobe Premier.

You can make a simple movie in about 5 minutes using movie maker. You just choose either video or a photo then add the audio. I made this yesterday to show someone else how to do it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUlUVY-3GLQ

Is Movie Maker for PC or Mac?
