So I'm not going to make it perfect because I think I'd be all day trying to match this with the music
that we'll put in in a minute.
But basically, I just want around 10 seconds of this clip.
So now click done.
And now what I want to do, and this is in the original clip, there is some text shows a plane heading
over overhead.
There is some text that shows up in this video at around the five second mark in this clip.
So I'll select this.
I'll go to not add title card.
This time we need to come to text.
We're going to add text to the clip, so type the text you want itself and you can choose the animation
style.
And then also where you want to place it.
Similar to the title card settings.
Now we're going to choose, OK, at what point do we want this animation to show?
And I want to show this at around maybe around the four second mark or something like that.
So roughly speaking, it's around here, and I'll click done.
Now we actually have a full video ready to watch.
So just click play.
Then we go to the second clip here and then this one here with the rock on the ocean side.
And then finally, this one here with the Big Rock below.
And then the animation shows at around the five second mark.
So pretty much that's the video done.
Now if I really wants to and this is not included in the extra video, I can just select this clip here
and a way to come to text.
And what you can do is you can just experiment with some of these options Phyllis's go for.
The simple option, in fact, I think you need to put some text in first.
We call this a big day out, and you can just choose where you want to place the text itself now.
Preferably I'd rather have the text that the bottom left here because that's the more conventional place
where text is placed.
So I don't know why that's not actually available, in fact.
Yeah, you could see it just goes up here for some reason, I prefer it to be down here.
But unfortunately, these are the only two options that are available.
And now with this slider, I can choose, OK, at what point do I want this to show?
I want to show it relatively early on.
So maybe at around the two second mark or something like that now or click done.
And now I'll just select.
So I click on this clip here.
I don't have to have it selected, but I just click on it and I'll click play.
You can see this text comes in.
OK, so the video is all edited.
Now the next thing to do is to add music.
Now there is some inclusive music that comes with Windows 11.
It's here and the background music and all I have to do is just select one of these.
So the the music I used for the video itself was this one called amplified.
I'll select it and I'll click done.
Oh, actually, you do have the volume for the music itself.
I'm going to leave it at 100 and it say, sync your video with the music's beats.
But in my experience, it doesn't really work very well, but I'll just select it anyway, and I'll
click done.
Now I'll go back to the beginning of the video and I'll click play.
Now, my screen record, I don't know if I've actually set the recorder to record system sounds, but
I'm sure you can hear it through the microphone, but the sound is there.
So the video sorry, the music itself is only, I think, about 30 seconds long.
So it's perfect for the length of the video, but basically that's how you add background music to your
video itself.
Now, with regard to these clips, you can just click and drag and move them around like this within
your storyboard.
So if I really wants to, I can bring this here and put it at spot number four or put it back here in
its first place, its original place, so you can do that.
So when you select these clips, you can see there's quite a few options here to choose from.
You have text, you have motion which will click on it, click on it and quickly take a look very quickly
so you can zoom in and zoom out and things like that.
You have you have 3D effects.
Your computer needs to be pretty fast to run the 3D effects, and it doesn't work very well.
I'll click on it anyway, but basically you can add things like this.
So let's just add this animation here.
And I'll click.
Actually, let me just make it run all the way through, I'll click done.
Actually, what I'll do is I'll just make it quite large, let's go like for something like this.
I'll click done.
So I'll press play.
I mean, that's pretty cool, I guess.
So you could just use that if you want and there are many other options to choose from from 3D effects,
they can just take a look.
You can come to a fax here and here are these other effects that you can choose from.
Like I said, there are a little bit sort of temperamental and hard to use, but I think when I first
started, sorry when I first downloaded them or this one in particular wasn't working very well, maybe
it was just my internet connection or didn't download properly or something like that, but it seems
to work well now.
There's also the 3D library.
We have these 3D models that you can also input into your video.
All right.
So I'm just going to start to bring this to an end now because I don't want this tutorial to be too
long.
It's already at 20 minutes.
But just to polish up, you can just go through the rest of these settings.
I mean, there's the speed settings, which are quite straightforward and filters, and then there's
custom audio.
Now, if I were to click on this, in fact, what I'd have to do is go to background music and click
on none to cancel the current background music.
If you come to custom audio, you can add your own audio tracks, so I'm going to click on Add Audio
File.
And I have this song here and selected and I'll click open.
And I'll click done.
Actually, I'll get rid of this here.
And I'll click done, and hopefully it should work, because in the past didn't work very well.
OK, so now I have some custom music within my video.
And you could do something like that.
So once you're done with your video and you're ready to export it, what you can do is you can just
click on Finish.
VIDEO Before I do that, I'm going to come back to custom audio and just get rid of this song here.
It's still here, OK, click that and that, OK, I'm going to add the original song, which was the
song called Amplified and I'll click done.
Yeah, so once you're done, you can just click on Finish VIDEO.
And then click on export.
And I'm just going to place it on the desk top and I'm going to call it ocean test and then I'll click
export.
And depending on how powerful your computer is, this could take a while.
Maybe not so long or maybe a long time.
But my computer's pretty decent, so it doesn't take too long.
Then once it's finished exporting, it will just give you a quick preview of the video.
And this video is saved on my desk top, so I don't need to navigate there.
I know where it is.
So that's a general overview of how the video editor works.
I really want to do this just to break it down a bit because, like I said, it's not your conventional
video editing software.
And while I suppose once you get used to it, it's actually quite simple to use.
But generally speaking, just for a nice short little videos or maybe maybe a holiday you've gone on
or maybe something at work.
It's easy to put something together pretty quickly.
Now there's just two more things I want to show you now with regard to the video that you downloaded
to do this tutorial.
If you're wondering how to get videos off of YouTube because you can't actually download them when you're
on your computer, what you can do is you can copy the URL like this control plus see come to something
called a YouTube converter.
So all you have to do is just type in YouTube converter, and this is the one I prefer to use.
Why 3:10, it should be on the first page and just paste in your URL here and then change it to before
so that you get the video or if you just want the sound, choose empathy and then click download before.
And this will download the video itself.
Then to find the video comes your file explorer and then come to downloads, and it should be the first
one on the list.
So I mean, that's pretty handy to use both regards to this website, as far as I know, it's quite
safe, but just use it at your own risk.
And then finally, in terms of music, if you wants to get your hands on a big library of music, what
you can do is you can just type in YouTube music library into Google or whatever search engine you use
and then come to the first option the studio dot youtube.com.
And as far as I know, you will have to have a YouTube account, which is basically just a Google account.
And here we have a whole list of songs you can choose from, and you can choose your genre and mood
and things from this dropdown here.
And once you've pressed play on the vote on the song itself, just to hear what it is and how it sounds
and you're happy with it, you can just come to download and then once it's downloaded, you can come
to the File Explorer again and you will find it under downloads.
OK, so that was a bit of a long winded tutorial.
It's probably been the longest so far.
I'm not sure what I'll do, whether I'll break it down into two tutorials or something like that.
But generally speaking, that is an overview of how to use the Windows 11 video editor.
And in all honesty, I was never going to be a short tutorial anyway, because there's just so many
things you can do with this.
