Using a Feature-Rich Video Editor
The video editor serves two primary functions in the creation of watchable video. First, it provides an accessible workspace for cutting up your raw footage into the most watchable segments and then piecing them together into a compelling movie.
Second, the video editor provides a multitude of elements for introducing change into your videos to satisfy the MTV-nurtured attention spans of viewers. For example, Movie Maker can supply intra-scene transitions, special effects, and offers a range of interesting title effects. Finally, MovieMaker's AutoMovie function, discussed in Chapter 14, converts your videos to MTV-style music videos and is an excellent tool for enhancing many common videos.
