If the song runs much longer than the movie, drag its right edge in the Audio/ Music bar to line up with the end of the movie, as in the same figure. To preventa song from ending too abruptly, right-click the Audio/Music bar and chooseFade Out. (You can also right-click and choose Fade Into have the music fadein gradually.) Video cameras record sound as well as video. So both the original sound fromthe video and the background music you add will play when you play the movie. To adjust the relative volume of the original audio and background music, clickthe Audio Levels button in the Storyboard/Timeline, or choose Tools.AudioLevels from Movie Maker s menu bar. In the Audio Levels dialog box that opens(also shown in Figure 18-13), drag the slider bar to the left to make the originalaudio louder or to the right to make the imported music louder. You can also narrate a movie with your own voice. You ll need a microphoneor headset plugged into your sound card to do this. Also, you might want towrite up a quick script and practice delivering it, so you re not constantlystumbling over words while you re trying to narrate. Aside from that, addingnarration is pretty easy. The narrative will actually be stored in a clip, whichyou can then add to the movie as you would background music. To get started on narration, get your microphone into position or your headseton. If you re in Storyboard view, click the Show Timeline button to switch toTimeline view. In the Timeline view, drag the Play Indicator to where you wantto start narration (or just click the Rewind button to get to the beginning ofthe movie to narrate the whole thing). Next, choose Tools.Narrate Timeline from Movie Maker s menu bar. In theNarrate Timeline pane that opens, talk into your microphone to test it. Adjustthe slider as you re talking to make sure your voice reaches up to near the yellow part of the spectrum, but isn t so loud as to keep you in the red part ofthe spectrum. It helps a lot to see the movie as you re talking. So when you re ready to go, click the Start Narration button in the pane. Start talking, synchronizing yournarration to whatever scene is currently playing in the movie. To stop narrating, click the Stop Narration button. A dialog box titled SaveWindows Media File opens. If you made a mess of things (as is often the caseon the first few tries), you can click the Cancel button in that dialog box tostart over. Otherwise, if you re happy with the narration, type a file name (perhaps one that matches the title of your movie), and click the Save button. Then click the word Doneunder the Stop Narration button. The icon for the narration sports a musical note, like an imported song. Thenarration is also added to the Audio/Music bar, just like an imported song. Youcan also use the Audio Levels dialog box described earlier to adjust the rela- tive volume of the original video and your narration. To remove an imported song or narration from the movie, click its name in theAudio/Music bar in the Timeline; then press Delete (Del), or right-click it andchoose Delete.
