What’re the skills to make Xmas movie more magic:


It is very easy to create photo movie from your photos with photo album software yourself, but it is not easy to create some magic movie. According to my experience for using these three album programs about Microsoft Photo Story 3, Picasa, and http://www.photo2vcd.com as an example, the skills as below are very useful.


Apply the dazzling templates subtly: when you select the templates, you can do it as one template to one photo, but if you choose the “advanced template” to match four or five relative group photos, it will combine your photos to a serial segment to make your Xmas movie more professional.


Select the decorative elements for winter holiday: Remember to choose the suitable decorative elements for winter holiday. For example, among the “effect” element list, fire cracker effect and slip effect are all good spice to display your Xmas atmosphere.


Use the animated intro/end effects: It gives you “FULL movie” with intro, movie scene, and end parts. During your movie intro and end setting, the “scroll” text effect and “snow “intro/end styles are very suitable to Xmas movie.


Take full advantage of this software and keep eyes on the animated templates so as to get your perfect Xmas photos movie. If you want to know about the basic operation, you can click the http://www.photo2vcd.com/demo.html, Microsoft Photo Story 3 and Picasa, don’t miss it.
