If you're going to use Windows Movie Maker, it does assumes that you're going to be using clips from image stills or video files that you already have in your computer...because if you're going to rip from raw footage like cassette taps or VCDs or DVDs into video files, that's going to take a new slew of different (and much more difficult) things.

You import your video files and your music into the software. When you do, you'll see bars in the bottom part of the software window; those are your video and music files, and that's why they're called "non-linear" - because they're separate and thus you can play around with them and have them come in and close when you want them to. Generally, you decide on a sequence you want the video to come out, sync the scenes in with the music, play with transitions, add text and/or effects, have fun, render...save, upload, show it to the world. Just experiment with the tools and controls in the software; with something as pre-programmed and as user-friendly as WMM, you'll learn a lot more by playing around it than tutorials.

If you have a Mac you can use finalcutPro. Its what we use in Video and animation class. you just have to have clips from stuff. but AMVz are AWESOME yesh?
