Recording a narration in Movie Maker

Movie Maker makes it really easy to record a voice narration over your movie. The program even has a built-in recording wizard that allows you to record over a microphone while you watch a preview of your movie.

This feature is very useful, and allows you to quickly narrate descriptive videos. For example, if you are selling a house, you could film all the rooms and later record a running commentary to go with it.

Another great use for a voice track is in creating picture slideshows. You could take pictures from your digital camera, lay them on the MovieMaker timeline, and then record a narration for your “slideshow!”
To use this function, you’re going to need a microphone.

To use the voice track wizard, simply press the “Narrate timeline” button located to the left of the timeline. When you click this button, the narration wizard will pop-up and give you some recording options. Most of these are pretty obvious … you can click “show more options” to see more recording choices.

You’ll need to pick your recording device (your sound card) and plug a microphone into your computer’s microphone-in jack.

Opinion about a travel

Hi, better late than never :)
I divide my opinion about Madrid in three paragraphs.

Academic part: In this travel I have known many places where I enjoyed a lot. I like museums and you can learn several things there (better with guide). We had to make an oral presentation in a high school in Alcala de Henares and it was interesting. Luckly, it was in Spanish, but we´d have said it in English too if required.

Social part: There were another classes of another high school there and we have met they all, it was very funny!

Cultural part: In my case, that was my first travel to the peninsula. And I have realized that my town in Gran Canaria is such small. The huge buildings are beautiful, highly decorated.And such large roads too. I was amazed!
Alcala de Henares has a rich history, like Cervantes´house. As it is here Vegueta.
There are many kiosks, but trade is basically the same as here.
I have come to the conclusion that I want to return there and may be live for a year. The worst thing that could happen to me,is to get lost in the underground. But the tube is so cool!!!
I can´t wait to Great Britain :D

Hello, I`m Kira, and I`m going to speak about the trip in Madrid, Tuesday morning we went to Alcala de Henares school and we did e presentations about the millennium development goals. I think that it was very good, but we was very nervous. I have to say that somethings we had to do very quicly, but finally, it was right. Maybe we would learn a litle bit more. I thin that black theathre was more less, because, we can´t do much more, because the conditions was wrong.
I love Madrid, it is very beautiful and ancient, I think that in the future I will go to study there. We saw very interesting places, and it was very very entertained. And we learned a little bit more of spanish culture and history.
We met many people, the mayority from Canarias like us, but many of their are now our friends, and I think that people in Alcala de henares are going to be ours friends to, when they come here.
I had one of the best experiences in my live. I learn many things, but not only culture. Human things and I very proud of us, because we did thing well
