Note:
Transitions cause video clips to overlap by about one second, which means some
video could be lost between the transition. When filming, it is good to start the
camera a few seconds before the action starts and to keep filming for a couple of
seconds afterward so that there will be lapsed time between transitions. This also
helps to get a steadier shot. If extra time is not needed in a clip, it can be trimmed
from the clip in Movie Maker.
Adding Special Effects
• Special effects change the appearance of a video clip by rotating it, slowing it
down or speeding it up, or making it appear like old film footage. Like transitions,
special effects can be added easily by dragging the relevant special effect icon
onto the movie timeline.
