Designing a video from photos
the basic principles of creating videos from photos,
how to tell about it in English.
Answer the introductory questions:
What is a video?
What is difference between a video and an animation?
What programs do you use to create videos?
Certainly on your computer or on the phone there are a lot of photos that you browse. Sometimes they are unrelated photos and sometimes they have a lot in common. Let's take into account holiday pictures.
On holidays, we usually take a lot of photos, and when we want to see them later, we find that there are too many of them, that some of them are out of focus or blurred and that we are not satisfied with them, so we remove them from our resources. However, a large part stays and we want to see them ourselves or share our experiences with others. For browsing we use the arrows on the computer, move the finger on the touch screen, or play the slideshow using this option on your computer.
But why not to go further. Why not to make your own videovideo?
All we need to do is find a software that will help us create your own video. Most often, the support for this type of software that is available to amateurs is intuitive, but regardless of which program you choose, you have to think about the subject of the video. Another important issue is the selection of photos from which the video is to be made. Select the appropriate photos and then sort them either chronologically or in accordance with the previously worked out plan. In the meantime, when we're preparing photos, do not forget about the titles or the information that should be added to these photos. If the photos are already prepared, we start to think about the background music. The times of silent movies are behind us. Unless creating a silent movie is a deliberate intention. Remember also about copyright when choosing and downloading music.
Anyone who can use a computer is able to design and then assemble a videovideo from photos. Therefore, go to work.
Browse the Internet resources and search for programs you can use to assemble your own videovideo from photos in your resources.
Make a table where you can put the names of programs, systems on which they can be launched and the pros and cons of the software. Compare your results with your colleagues' results.
From the photos you have collected, select the ones from which you can edit the videovideo. See what these photos have in common. Using the Power Point presentation program or Libre Office Impress create your own film script. On each slide, place one photo and a subtitlesubtitle for it. Using the option of sorting slides, you can still interfere in your script at this stage.
VideoVideo - an audio‑visual work that consists of scenes. Each scenescene consists of one or more shots. The shot can be a photo. For the creation of the video, it is necessary to create a script.
