7.3Create New Album

In order to add content to the Storyboard/Timeline, you need to first create an album. Albums consist of shortcuts that link to the picture, music, and video files stored on your computer. There are a few sample albums included in the program.

Step 1. Launch the program and click "Edit" at the top of the screen to go to the Edit module.

Step 2. Click the Media tab. From the album pull-down, choose "< New Album >."

Step 3. Enter in a new album name. Just click on and type over the existing name.

Step 4. Click where indicated to browse your system for files to add to the album.

You can add still pictures, video clips, and audio tracks.

Step 5. Add additional files to your album at any time.

Select the album from the pull-down and click the Add button.

Don't forget that you can create more than one album. Organize your media so that it's easy to find what you need when you're making your movies.

For more information about albums, see Section 3.3.
