Storyboard vs. Timeline A timeline enables you to set the duration of your slides, put the music exactly where you want it, as well as see all parts of your video and where they overlay all at the same time
Step 6: Editing Music A particular song can be shortened or a particular part selected by clicking on either the end of the beginning of a file (whichever part you’d like to cut out) and dragging in towards your desired spot in the song By right clicking on the highlighted music file, you have the ability to change the volume of this particular song, fade it in or fade it out…all very useful editing tools in making your music “blend” with your photos.
Two or more songs… Whether it be at the end of a song or after a song has been clipped, another song can be dragged down next to a previous song By clicking on the second song and dragging it towards the first song, you will cause the first song to fade out as the second fades in.
After you click “Make Titles and Credits”, this list will appear. To make a Title page To make a caption on a selected photo (make sure the photo you want this caption on is highlighted in the timeline) To make Credits for the end
After you select one of the previous options, this screen will appear. Type in the top box whatever you would like your main title to be, and in the lower box an optional subtitle. You can then edit your title page/captions (in the circled area)
