What is Video Editing?

MovieMaker makes it possible to edit your own videos. It is a free software program that comes with Windows and is also a free download from the Microsoft Windows website.  It uses a simple drag and drop method that is easy for users of all levels of technology.

 

iMovie is a Mac-based video editing application very similar to MovieMaker.

 

Value of Multimedia

Multimedia embraces Visual-Spatial, Musical-Rhythmic, and other Intelligences, thus allowing for maximum audience participation. It also is a hands-on way to communicate complex messages that may not be fully conveyed through words alone, or pictures alone.
