Vegas Movie Studio helps you edit and create videos from all of your favorite photos. While there is other software available that does the same things, this software is easy for beginners to use. Even if you have no experience, you can use Vegas Movie Studio.

One of the nice things about this software is that it comes with a timeline that runs across the bottom of your screen. This allows you to see how the photos flow. When you open a new file and start working on it, Vegas Movie Studio lets you pick which photos you want to add. As you work with one image at a time, you don't need to worry about feeling overwhelmed. You have the option of adding short video clips to your productions, too.

Do you want to create a fun slideshow of videos and photos that show you and your friends you can share at an upcoming party? This software helps you create those videos. You can also use it for weddings and family reunions as well as work or school. Vegas Movie Studio lets you pick how long you want each image to appear on the screen before it disappears and a new one appears. You can even upgrade the show to 4K with just a few clicks.

Vegas Movie Studio comes loaded with special effects and has more effects than other products do. You can pick from different transitions to show how you want the show to transition between shots. A star shot is a fun option, but you might prefer one of the more professional transitions. If you want to add a special song or music to the background, pick an audio file from your computer and add it to the show. Vegas Movie Studio will even let you adjust which photos appear during different sections of the song and how long you view them.

Another benefit of this software is that it comes with a guide on how to use it. This guide includes basic steps on how to create a new show that uses just photos and detailed instructions on adding more content. You'll also find tips on how to use different transitions and add multiple audio clips.

There aren't many downsides to using Vegas Movie Studio. You may find that adding audio files and music is confusing and that you spend more time editing the music than you do the videos. Some also found that it lacks the pro features they want. For most people, Vegas Movie Studio is an easy way to create slideshows.
