Music

Adding music to your movie adds a nice touch.  Freeplay Music is a fantastic resource to find theme music for your movie project but can also be used as background music for a powerpoint presentation. It is easily searchable according to type, tempo, style and feel.  There are many different royalty-free instrumentals available.  It can give a really original feel to any presentation you create.

1. Go to http://www.freeplaymusic.com/search/.
2. On the left write your keywords or choose your feel or tempo, etc. (You do not need to make a selection for each choice.  I often just choose one and browse)
3. Click search
4. In each selection you will get a short description of the music piece.  You can also preview it by clicking on a length of time of the clip on the preview side.
5. Once you have found the clip you like, right-click on the length you want on the MP3 side and 'save target as'
6. Save it someplace you will remember.  It's usually a good idea to keep them all in the same spot to easily go through your choices.
7. In Moviemaker you need to choose import audio.
8. You can now drag the clip you want to use down to your timeline in the audio/music layer.
