How does everyone make these videos?
I'm curious cos i wouldn't know where to start!
Do you rip the clips from the dvds yourself with a special program or tool?
How do you put them together?
I am sadly useless in this area but I often hear songs and think of ideas of images and clips to go with them (bg and other stuff) so if it isnt too hard i'd love to learn how it's done and maybe give it a go (secretly, privately cos they'll all be shite lol!)
Any advice? Basic

Though it's not the programme that I use I know a lot of vidders use Movie Maker, it comes as standard on the latter versions of Microsoft Windows. Sadly I can't tell you much more about the programme than that. Maybe OWH or Jeanna use it and can tell you a bit more.
If you can get it to work for you don't be afraid to give making music videos a try. It's a great deal of fun and very satisfying to watch something come together, especially when you're the one who's made it.

Video capturing
Hi,
I use a video and capture card (WinTV). Then you can import them into Movie Maker and edit them. Or you can download whole episodes from the net. I've never ripped straight from a DVD to my computer - I think you can use Nero for that but windows XP service pack 2 has a conflict with Nero so I had to stop using it. If you need more help just ask
Take care

I don't use Movie Maker so I can't be much help there. I use a program called ULead and it let's me import the DVD's directly into the program and edit from there.
Good luck with it and be patient, I have found it to be both frustrating and rewarding (almost at the same time) Sophies World reader
