Chapter 2: The Library
47
SmartMovie
SmartMovie presents its controls on a panel that slides up into the
Library from below. Again there are three subpanels. The leftmost
presents information and advice concerning your SmartMovie. The
center subpanel is a storage area with bins for video and photos
(top) and audio. The right subpanel contains controls for
customizing the show.
Adding media
The visual elements in your SmartMovie can include photos and
other still images along with the video. Drag the assets you want to
use from the Browser into the upper bin in the storage area. You can
also drag thumbnails within the storage area to get the order you
want. Continue adding further material until you are satisfied.
To add music, drag one or more sound files to the lower
bin in the storage area. Alternatively you can click the clef
button in the bottom left corner of the audio bin to create a
music soundtrack in ScoreFitter.
As media are added, the total running time of the source material is
displayed in the top-left corner of the bin. This is not necessarily the
length of the resulting movie.
