In this video, you will learn how to brand a video using Windows Movie Maker. And you can take this video, and you can upload to any video services, or if you are selling a video and you do not want anybody to have the rights to sell at. You can brand it with your company name, or your website name. The first thing that you will need is the Windows Movie Maker, which is free software that is most likely already in your computer. Next thing that you need to do is have a video that is either WMD, which is Windows movie Maker format, or in (Inaudible) format. And what you want to do is import your media, so just click on this to import your media from your computer. Many can import as many as you want, because it is coming to the click bin. Okay, so here it is in the clip bin. Now all you have to do is drag it down to the timeline by left clicking your mouse holding it down and drop it into the timeline. Next thing that you want to do is go to Tools, and then go to titles and credits. And click title on, select a clip, and then you key your text in here. And you can put whatever you want here, just the website name, not for sale, property of website name or whatever. So just put property, or as I can see more at and then website name. Okay, you see a show up in the preview window over here. Now what we can do is go and change the animations which we want to do first. You can use any of these if you want, but I like to use the Fly in and Fly up. Now you see that it flies in and flies back out again. And then what we can do is we can go change the fonts and so on and the size. So let us also change the color here. So we will change it to black, and then what we are going to do is, we are going to reduce the size, and so it will fix on one line. Like so, and now we are gone, click add title. Now we can go down to our timeline and drag it across here., and then we can make it longer, just by putting our mouse over top until the air shows up. Hold it (Inaudible) mouse key, and drag it up. Now if we play our video in the window here, you will see that it flies in and then it will fly out again when we get to the end of the timeline. Just watch carefully here. And there it goes. Now if you want to make a copy of this, you could just put your mouse on it, do a copy and leave your timeline across, and then click up here. Put a marker there and then right click it down here, and just click paste. Now you have added that down here. You drag this across, now you see that it flies in there and then it flies up at the end. So that is how you can put multiple times in your timeline. In that way, you can brand it more than once in your video. At this point all you have to do is click publish movie and then click this computer, the next. Give the movie a name and then pick where you want it on your computer, and click next again. You can select best quality as the best thing to do here, and then just click publish. Now the movie will publish itself, and you are already to upload it, or to sell or whatever you want to do with this. And that is you can brand your own video using Windows Movie Maker.
