Getting Started With VideoImpression
When you first run the program, a window will appear that lets you choose the type of project you want to make (you can also open previously saved projects). Choose “Create a New Video.” A new window will appear. It will contain multiple options for gathering your video content.
For this walk-though, choose “Get From Album.” Even if you choose one of the other options, you’ll end up at your albums soon or later. Albums contain shortcuts to files stored on your system. You’ll grab most of your “media” for movie construction from your albums.

Media
This first step is where you select the “media” (still images, videos, and sound clips) that you want to use to create your movie. All you need to do is choose the components you want and add them to the Storyboard. When you save—or “pro­duce”—your movie, all the components on the Storyboard will be combined together into a single video file.
Let’s look at the Storyboard again:
Video Clips & Still Images
Transitions
Audio Tracks
The Storyboard
The large squares are reserved for still images and video clips. The two horizontal bars beneath are reserved for audio tracks. The smaller squares between the still im­age/video clip components are for “transitions.”

Edit
You’re now ready to touch up and modify your movie components. Different editing options are available depending on the component type.
Modifying Image And Video Brightness/contrast
1. Single-click the desired still image or video clip on the Storyboard.
2. Click and drag the sliders to your liking. You can preview the effect within
the Player.
Trimming Videos And Audio
1. Select the desired video or audio clip on the Storyboard.
2. Drag the Starting Mark to the spot where you would like the clip to begin
playback.
3. Drag the Ending Mark to the spot where you would like the clip to end.
7
Effects-transitions
The third step in the creation process lets you add cool scene transitions between each still image or video component on the Storyboard.
Transitions are effects that occur as one movie component changes to another. You can add/delete transitions in the same way that you add/de­lete media components. Click the “Randomize” button to automatically add a random transition to each spot. You can go back to Step 2 to modify the display time for your transitions as well.
Text
This step lets you add text over any still image or video component on the Storyboard. Click on the component you want, then type in your text. You can modify all the standard parameters, such as font, size, style, alignment, and color.
You can also add a shadow. To do this, check the Shadow box. Click and drag within the preview to position the shadow behind the text. Use the sliders to adjust the shadow blur and intensity.
