2009-02-15
okay everyone in thanks for tuning in chances are you just saw that that little 15-second introduction there if you didn't skip the first 15 seconds or so and as you can see by the title this video is gonna be about how to make your own introduction for free extremely easy now keep in mind this is just the amateurish kind of way of doing it's not like flashy or anything it's not going to be extremely customizable but you will get results like I just showed you right there in my last video or my last on my last my introduction like you just saw so I'm gonna go through it on my screen capturing software and show you guys exactly how I do it and then pull up the actual introduction itself so thanks for watching all right there are a few steps to doing this in the first place the first thing you're going to do is go on open up any web browser and you're going to go to WWE moto comm that is the first thing you're gonna get to this Animoto website and the first thing you want to do is sign up creating an account already so I would just sign in and I will take you through this whole entire process in a second so when you hit sign up it's just gonna ask you for your email name a little bit about you date of birth code etc then you put in a little security code and you sign up so what I'm going to do is sign in real quick so hold on I'll pause the video and this is what it looks like I bet it's signed in you can see I have several drafts in Animoto of my actual introduction video and this is my final draft here which you saw ought to be any of this video so what you're going to do once you've signed in and you know done a confirmation email and everything we're going to hit the create video button or you can do several things first thing I'm going to do is get first thing you're going to do when you create a video is select yes whether or not we'll create a shirt 30-second video or a full length video I did a 30-second sport so just click on first thing I did was get images for my computer now you can salt you saw that I took a number of images from my webcam and from my digital camera and that's the images that I uploaded from my computer you know it'll pull up the the documents and go into your pictures and everything and upload the video but I upload the pictures from your computer see what videos hit the upload button I'll just upload one little picture I guess one second alright I found my pictures I'm gonna go I'm going to ctrl click a few of them and it opened so first it'll upload all three files make sure they're not too big make sure they're not more than five megabytes per image or they won't work so now we have the pictures that we want we can rearrange the order of the pictures change things like that we can change which ones we want to drop out and actually delete them we can add text videos if we want to and we can add more and delete so once we have the three in order that we want we just hit continue and yes I know it's gonna be a little short but I'll hit okay anyway now you're gonna select music again you can select it upload from your computer or you can select from their collection what I did was select from their collection cuz I was kind of worried about possible copyright infringement so what I just did with random electronica song the first one a night in the dark by John Kelly so I hit the select button and this is the soundtrack information so I just hit save and continue' and last but not least this is an animated short which means you can't go half speed or full speed and then you choose the video cover screen which I'm fine with this being they just click which one you want to be the cover screen next you hit continue and type in a title and a description a producer name create video this is the this is where the patient's part comes in all I got to do is wait till it initializes goes through all these steps that you see here and finishes rendering your video when it is done it will send you an email with the link to your video so I'll show you what it looks like when the video was done okay this is what it looks like when the video is done uploading if you I received an email it will email you hit the play button and as you can see I'll just pause it here it actually puts in transitions for you and now it's a very short movie obviously but it puts in the transitions for you and they're pretty cool they go with the music a little bit smoother in real life obviously and there if I pause it it says a title which is the title created by marques Brownlee etc so that's pretty cool that it actually does that now it's here in my videos so if I hit the my videos button and Animoto projects here it is so the next step to creating this as your YouTube actual introduction is clicking on this video going to info no not going so first you're just gonna play it so it opens up the player pause it and on the bottom here you see export to YouTube that's the first thing I did so now you'll see and I just got an email from any modo saying here is your link so now you'll see when you upload exported to you I'm just gonna go to my YouTube page real quick everyone should hit that subscribe button subscribe button and here is my official intro right there this is the actual video you have the URL up top box but obviously that doesn't make the intro to all your videos does it so the second step I'll do a later video on this is how to download the videos using YouTube downloader and they will actually downloaded the video and cut out the ending part that says the whole Animoto thing and I cut that out in Windows Movie Maker and then I set that as the beginning in HD to every one of my videos so I hope that helped you guys that is the way that I made my introduction and that's hopefully the way you can make yours if you like this tutorial or if you have any other tutorials just go ahead and subscribe and shoot me an idea and I will do my best thanks for watching peace one last thing I have to mention that this was also a request by YouTube user known as you know you KN ome so I'll go ahead and check out his channel it's in the description box and I actually
