I see a lot of music videos on YouTube with slide show pictures. What program do I use to make my own music and create a video for YouTube?
Those music videos you see on YouTube are custom mixes created by fans. They are pretty simple to create with some proper tools. The first program I will recommend for this project is Audacity. Audacity is a free open source program which allows you to edit and record music files and mix different songs together and create your own person remix.
Now that we have the music taken care of we need the actual video. Windows comes with a free movie editor called Movie Maker and this allows us to create a slide show video with different photos for the music mix we have created in Audacity. When we are finished creating our video file we can then save it. Now all you need to do is upload the video to YouTube and it will convert the file to flash format for every one to see your masterpiece.
There are many ways and different programs you can use to create your own YouTube videos so don’t feel you need to use the one’s that I mentioned. I hope this at least points you into the right direction.
