Q. I'm planning on making a home movie this weekend, but I want it to get better sound. I use a Sony Digital Camcorder to make the movies. Do I need a microphone? If so where can I get one from?
A. A microphone will make your movies sound 100X better. I recently was in your same position. I bought a Rode Videomic for $150. I highly recommend this one, its very versitle for a shotgun mic and records well inside.
If you can afford more go with the Oktava MK 012 its a hypercardiod mic (very directional) like $200 on this and its better for recording indoors.
If you just want some cheap crapola mic you can throw away, any mic from Best buy/Cicuit city will do the job and improve your video A LOT!

How can I convert my home movies to edit on windows movie maker?
Q. I downloaded my home movies from our camcorder to my computer and I want to edit them on movie maker but when I import the file it goes into the audio music file and the video does not show up so I can edit it. The file seems to be a .mpg I have tried to find converters but cant seem to get anything to work. I would like to remove parts of the movies and also put music with it, so it isnt even like I want the audio part anyways. Anyone out there who can help me, pppllleeeaassse??? I have been trying all day and becoming sooo frustrated (I am new to this but I did it with some other videos that I had so not sure why this isnt working!! Thanks!
A. Make sure your program is current with available updates.
Read the following. It comes from the WindowsMovieMaker link I provided at the bottom of this reply. Good luck.
QUOTE:
When importing footage into the program you can either choose to "Capture Video" (from camera, scanner or other device) or "Import into Collections" to import existing video files into your collections. The accepted video, image, and audio formats are wmv, jpeg, gif, png, wma, wav, and mp3. Movie Maker will also accept short MPEG-2 files but this may be unreliable.
Note: Current versions of Windows Movie Maker do not allow capture of MPEG2 files from DVD or Hard Disk cameras.
Current versions of Windows Movie Maker also only allow the burning of Video CDs; that is, they do not support DVD burning directly. However there is plenty of software available which will convert the resultant edited files to the standard consumer DVD format as a separate step. In many cases, limited but perfectly useable software is bundled with DVD burners (eg Power Producer Gold). Alternatively, most DV cameras allow the final AVI file to be recorded back onto the camera tape for high quality playback. Some standalone DVD recorders will also directly accept DV inputs from video cameras and computers.
