Some months back, I bought a discounted book on Video making for Dummies. Yes, it was the Dummies range of books that teach you to do lots of other things written by various authors. After reading the book, I managed to create my first video using Microsoft Vista and used DVD ripper to extract some songs from my collection of CDs just for the movie. The DVD ripper was easy to use and comes with my computer. Even the movie maker was part of the package of Windows Vista that I have never explored before. It is part of my hobby to learn new stuffs and this is one of them using the computer.

By using the DVD ripper, I am able to extract out my favorite songs from my CD collection and add them here for visitors to view. It is in one of my old posts and if you have been following my blog, you would have come across it some months ago. I managed to add credits and scrolling text that moves from top to bottom with slide transition.

I am happy with my own achievement as this is self taught – all from reading the Dummies book bought from MPH. At least, after reading, I managed to do the basic necessity to create my very own first movie and uploaded to Youtube for public viewing. I certainly love to explore new tricks and tips on the computer and enhace my IT skills.
