Adding Narration to your movie - Guided Edit

Video footages or pictures in a video clip convey a story or idea. But, adding narration or voiceovers add a personal touch or amplify the story-telling potential of the video clip. Describing a certain section of the video entices the viewer. Therefore, narrations add a powerful impact especially for documentary movies or biographies. Adding narrations to your video clips has been simplified in Adobe Premiere Elements by a guided edit.

This Guided Edit is a tutorial on adding narration to your video clip. To add narration to your video clips using this Guided edit, follow these steps:

  1. This Guided Edit is a walkthrough on adding narration to your video clips.
