Why buy a card on Mother\u2019s Day for your Beloved Mom when you can send a video that includes pictures of you? It\u2019s an easy way to spread love and joy on this very special day that\u2019s not just about her, but also about you. This is one of the most special days for you and your Mom. Never made a video before? Well, have no fear because SEGi<\/em><\/strong> is here! And we\u2019re here to tell you that with WeVideo<\/em>, <\/strong>directing your own video is simple and quick. All you need is creativity, a willingness to have fun, and most easily yet most importantly, love for your mother.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll need a WeVideo<\/em><\/strong> account to help you to create a video. If you don\u2019t have one, sign up for FREE when you log in to the WeVideo<\/em><\/strong> website.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 <\/strong>Start from scratch or choose a Mother\u2019s Day template<\/strong><\/h3>\n

From your\u00a0\u2018Dashboard<\/a>\u2019, click\u00a0Browse all > Library > Seasonal<\/strong>, and choose a template to work with. Customise and make it your own by uploading and using your own images and videos, and change the text and sound effects to your liking. Once you have it the way you like it, skip to step 6<\/strong> and export your finished video.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not sure how to get started and need a little inspiration, you may give one of WeVideo\u2019s customisable Mother\u2019s Day templates a try. Templates come complete with audio, sound effects and text.\u00a0If you\u2019re not using the template, start a new edit and choose from one of three formats (square, horizontal or vertical) from your \u2018Dashboard\u2019.<\/p>\n

2. Upload your media<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It\u2019s simple to import your media to WeVideo<\/em><\/strong>. You may upload directly from your computer or import from sites such as Dropbox, Google Drive, Facebook, Instagram and many other interesting sites. If you\u2019re using a mobile device, you may upload photos and videos using the WeVideo<\/em><\/strong> app for\u00a0iPhone<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0Android<\/a>. From there, you can continue your editing process using WeVideo<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s full-featured, cloud-based web app on your laptop or desktop.<\/p>\n

3. Put things in motion with animation<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The easiest way to add motion to your videos is with the\u00a0\u2018<\/em><\/strong>Ken Burns Effect<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\u2019<\/em><\/strong>.<\/strong> This can be done by simply taking a photo in your timeline. Then do the panning and zooming which creates the effect of a camera recording footage. After dropping the photos into your timeline, you can add the \u2018Ken Burns Effect\u2019<\/em><\/strong> to each individually or all photos simultaneously.<\/p>\n

4. Add motion titles for text<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The texts can be chosen from one of WeVideo<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s Mother\u2019s Day-themed motion titles or from one of the many others in WeVideo<\/em><\/strong> library. You can add single or multiple layers of text to your video to send your message.<\/p>\n

5. Hit the right note<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Every WeVideo<\/strong> account comes with a library of music. You may use this to your advantage and add music that will pull on the heartstrings of your mother \u2013 undoubtedly you know what she likes.<\/p>\n

6. Export and share with the one(s) you love<\/strong><\/h3>\n

And now you\u2019ve done it! You\u2019ve uploaded your videos and photos, added motion titles, some music and effects, now your Mother\u2019s Day masterpiece is complete. All that is left is choosing your resolution and exporting directly to your Google Drive, YouTube or elsewhere. Once exported you can download and share the video to your mother! If you wish to show your masterpiece to the public, you can share with a link, embed it on your website, or share on social media.<\/p>\n

Just because we\u2019re away from your Moms this year doesn\u2019t mean that we can\u2019t find creative ways to share our love for our Mom. She IS the only one we have after all. Don\u2019t let 2021 take away the magic that this time of the year brings. Find joy and make memories in every moment.\u00a0Show your love to that Wonderful Woman without whom you wouldn\u2019t be here. Here at SEGi<\/em><\/strong>, we\u2019re cheering you on!<\/p>\n
