Making a Semi Pro Youtube Video
Now that you have a YouTube account, a web cam, a microphone, and video edition software the next step is to make them work together.
Open your video software. I use "Windows Movie Maker" which came with my computer. I have a standard (cheap) web cam, and a standard (cheap) microphone. Use the software that came with your web cam to shot live video footage. Drag and drop or upload the captured footage to your video editing software.

Free Music for your YouTube Videos
I use music with my videos - most of the time. I use free-share music. YouTube does not like you stealing popular artist music, and will mute your video if you are caught. So, just don't do it. Use the free stuff. This site that I get most of my free music is listed to the right.

Depending on your video editing software -- you can manipulate text, sound, and appearance of objects in your YouTube video. So, don't be afraid to play around with your editing software.
Now that you have your video the way you like it -- it's time to upload it to Youtube. It's simple. Just follow the uploading instructions on YouTube's site.

This is just the info I need. Thanks so much.
And a question - Can I use youtube videos done by others - do I need their permission or can I just add it to my hubpage?
I will save your article for reference. Thanks again!
You can use others videos on your hub. Just copy the URL (of the video) and put it in the hub widget labeled "video".
Brilliant -I am not sure if you created this hub because of my request but if you did, i feel truly honoured. If you didn't and it was just a coincidence that I am still happy because now I know that I have the software already on my computer so I could start making my own vids.
Thank you so much. Keep them coming.
Watched both videos - what fun! Eventually, I am going to try to do my own - with your guidance in this hub.
Many many thanks for making it (seem) so easy!!!!
I did make this article because of you (TipTopCat). Thanks for the topic. Hope it helps.
BkCreative, leave a link to your video. I want to watch it.
