Do you have lot of photos stored in your computer? Do you wish to create a video out of those photos, with background music, making the photos to flow in a sequence, making you nostalgic? Do you want to create some video with the photos you have and publish it in Youtube or anywhere in Internet? Do you want to create a video without really using your video camera?

It is very simple and easy indeed. It is going to take just a few minutes of your time. So, here is the step by step guidance for you on how to make a video.

1. Collect your photos and gear up. Have you collected all the photos you want to show in this video? OK. Now go to your startup menu and open the Windows Live Movie Maker software.
