I have ALWAYS been wondering, how exactly do you make a video? I mean, I know how to shoot them and stuff, but how do you add music and edit it and junk?

Wow...that's a lot to answer. I'm not sure if it's something you can just type a couple of sentances to answer. You need to use the right editing software, and it's something you just have to have an 'eye' for. Not everyone can be a video editor. But here's a couple of links to get you started:

I have always wanted to do that. But i tried Windows Movie Maker. Downloading videos and putting my favourite pieces onto one video. But i wouldnt put it on the internet.

Thanks Robb. That does kind of help me. But it'd be kinda hard to do all that A-B stuff in one day, especially if you were shooting a theme park video. But any other video would be fine.

How exactly do you do it? Do you shoot all of your footage in one day, or over a period of days?

If you think that editing is hard. Try learning on one of these. I still got box full of Betamax and 3/4" tapes.

I shoot all year. But it depends on the park. If I'm only at a park one day, then I only shoot that day. On average, I only shoot about 30-45 minutes of raw footage per segment that ends up on the DVDs.

 

I think it's almost impossible to quantify how it's done in one post. What you need to do is research how video editing is done, then come back and ask some more specific questions.
