Convert photos to movie clip using Photo Movie Theater

Photos help to keep the memory live and videos add cherish to the memory. Whether its memory of childhood, school days, college days, adventurous trip etc… Converting photos to movie clip makes that moment unforgettable.

If you have a good awesome collection of photos and want to convert it to movie clip then you don’t have to be a professional movie maker. There are many online tools and downloadable software available for easy movie makers. Out of which, I have given a try to one of them and it was an awesome experience using it, so thought to share with you.

The software of which I am about to discuss is named as ‘Photo Movie Theater’. It’s really very easy to operate with good user interface.

Let’s explore the feature of Photo Movie Theater.

Convert photos to Movie clip using Photo Movie Theater:

#1. Download the software

Download the latest version of Photo Movie Theater. These provide a trail version for personal use. This software cost $35.95 (In case if you want to buy). I know there are lot many software available for free of cost. But I would recommend you to use this trail version because while using free/cracked version there may have chances to get affected to your PC. Since this is paid software, you can be sure that they will not try to harm your PC using the trail version because they can’t afford to lose their customer.

#2. Install it in your system

  • I do it using windows movie maker. Is it better than that? If it gives better options I would love to download this one.

    By the way with the specifications, It seems to be good.

    • Before writing this article I have downloaded Window Movie maker to check it’s feature… frankly speaking, it gave me many option like photo viewer, movie maker, etc and I choose only one i.e. movie maker. And while downloading it ask me many permission like turn on window update, login to microsoft account etc.

      So, I decide to switch over to other option which I have been using from a week and I have made 3 video for my college friends and they really liked it. So I decided to share this tool with everyone.

      Glad to know that you are using window movie maker and I would like to know more about movie maker from you.

      Thank for sharing your view bhai. 🙂
