You
can import pictures of any size into StageIT, but for ease of
use in sizing animations, speeding up rendering of a
simulation, and matching with video clips, we recommend that
imported pictures be 800 x 600. You can capture DV video using
Windows Movie Maker if you have a Firewire card in your
computer. You can save it as a WMV file and import it
into your video User Collections. Or you can publish and
import the completed stage as a Windows Media Video file as is
shown in the window above.
3.
If you want to import more than a single file, StageIT provides an import “files from folders” function that imports
all the useable information (videos, graphics and sounds) into the user
collection while maintaining and representing the imported files within the
original folder structure found in the Windows file system.
4.
To import an entire file folder, on the Media Library toolbar, click the arrow next to the Import icon
and select Files From Folders from the drop down list. Navigate to the
folder and select it. The imported file or folder will appear in the User
Collections.

media to import
