Izzy Video tutorials make it easy to learn video.

Video can be a huge hassle to manage.

• The file sizes are enormous, so they fill up your hard drives fast.
• They’re easy to move, duplicate, misplace, and generally difficult to track.
• Hard drives are notoriously unreliable, and yet we store hours and hours of valuable video assets on them.

These are just some of the problems.

Of course, when there’s problems like this, there are also solutions. The additional problem though is that existing software and hardware solutions tend to be very expensive.

The one person video shooter (professional or hobbyist) will likely not want to invest in a big expensive system.

So what do you we do?

Well, over the past several weeks I’ve been using a system that I pieced together from other methods, and it has been working well for me. A few days ago, I held a webinar to share my system, and I recorded it and posted it in the member’s area (along with the more than 180 other videos already there).

The above video is just a trailer. If you want the full version of the video (more than 30 minutes of useful information), log into the member’s area if you’re a member, or if you haven’t joined yet, go check out the membership information page.

One of the most simple types of videos to make is an animated photo montage. It’s easy because if you have a lot of photos and some music, you can make one. You don’t even need actual video.

Of course, if you add the Ken Burns effect to your photos, it adds more energy and intensity than if you have just a static photo.

In this new tutorial, I demonstrate the basic workflow for creating an animated photo montage using the Ken Burns effect. I show the workflow in Final Cut Express, but it would also work in Final Cut Pro, and the main concepts apply to any editing software.
