Comments on: Windows Live Movie Maker 14.0 Review http://boxofjack.com/articles/2009/10/26/windows-live-movie-maker-14-0-review/ I hail from Melbourne, Australia but I am living in Seattle, Washington.

I have used the previous Movie Makers extensively though, an I can't say that I exactly like the new one (though I am a pretty stubborn person :P). I can see what they were trying to do with the UI, and I generally like it, but it takes a lot of getting used to. I made my first movie with the software tonight (using footage I created with the Moviestorm software, here's the link: http://www.moviestorm.co.uk/community/index.php?page=videos&section=view&vid_id=102896). My main gripes are that while I can actually control my movie better, I am confused on where I am (ex: you can't see individual frame pictures). Also, the effects editor is pretty poorly designed, and it feels like there are not as many effects as you could use before. Hopefully, that will be fixed with addons you can download. And after it converted the video to format, my movie looked high quality. My advice: give it time. Jack is dead on when he says barebones.</p> I haven’t used iMovie all that much (I don’t personally use a Mac, though there is one in the house).
