Things You'll Need:
- you tube account
- pictures
- music
- computer with movie maker on it
-
Step 1
Elvis Presley In The ServiceDecide on an artist, I have a few I stick with, Celine Dion, Elvis Presley, American Idols, etc. Gather as many pictures as you can. I purchase large amounts on discs through ebay.
-
Step 2
I do things a bit different than others. I learn everything I can about the artist. When doing a song it's always best to know this person as if they were a friend. I have over 300 Elvis Presley videos posted, I like Elvis lol. In the search bar, choose the name of the song and the artist, type it in and add the word pictures.

Step 3
Elvis with mans best friendUpload to your computer, I have mine in foldrs according to name. Now, open the movie maker, you will find it in windows. Play with it, read all the hints and tips. Add a song, then hit import. click on all the pictures you gathered. Now with me, some take hours, others 30 minutes, not including research time. Simply add the pictures to match the song, there are tools on movie maker to seperate, make the pictures move, all kinds of things.

Step 4
Elvis in Gold shirtAs time goes on you get better, ask questions, people will flock to your videos, I am a perfectionist, my work has to be as good as I can make it or I scrap it and start over. Then go to You Tube and hit upload, type the name of the song, hit enter, it will upload. Add descriptions, anything you want. Tag words, very important. Add words to draw people to that video. Frankie Valli did Swear To God, I hold the number one video with the most hits for that song, last time I checked, over 53,000. I stick with what people want, and more important, what I like.

Step 5
Elvis Presley with Lisa when she was about 3 years old.Comments are posted on these videos, try to answer all, the rude people that put curse words, we have delete buttons and block buttons for them. Stay nice, don't let people bait you. I love what i do, I belong to twitter and the people I post are now followers of mine. Except for the dead singers. Allison Iraheta was kicked off Idol last week, I posted videos I made of every song she did, she is now following me as is Frankie Valli and American Idol, etc. Perfection is the key, have fun, you learn as you go.
