Use movie templates
Use movie templates in order to tell a whole story using just a few mouse clicks.
You can open movie menus either in the start dialog or in an already open program in
Media Pool > Menu templates. Double-clicking on a menu template will open it in
Storyboard Mode.
Insert own material
You can add your own content everywhere you see a placeholder (indicated with an
arrow in the illustration). Drag the desired video from the Media Pool in front of the
placeholder, which it should replace. The placeholders' names indicated which type of
material should be inserted here (e.g. "Group recording").
If your video is too long for a placeholder, you will see a green bar in the mini timeline
below the video monitor. You can grab it using your mouse and move it in such a way
that just the right section of the video appears in the placeholder. If your inserted
video is too short, it will be rejected by MAGIX Video Pro X5.
