Spice Up Your Photos and Videos with Muvee

I get a lot of compliments on the photo slideshows I do on my blog, it is a great way to showcase a bunch of photos at one time. Last year when I was at Blissdom I won a copy of Muvee software and that is what I use to put the slideshows together. I have tried other programs but keep coming back to Muvee.
Did you know you can use Muvee for much more than photo slideshows! I like that you can choose different themes and backgrounds to showcase your media. You can also mix photos and video and splice together several video clips inot one. Here is some of my most recent work.
Here is an example of mixing photos and video to create a Muvee.
These are the dancing fountains at the Bellagao Hotel in Las Vegas. I took these shots while I was at Blog World Expo. I could have stood there all day and watched the fountains.

Look Out Vegas Here I Come!

I am so excited to heading to Blog World Expo in Las Vegas this week thanks to Collective Bias, Blog World Expo, and Crocs! From what I understand BWE is the premier conference about all things blogging and I am looking forward to learning some new things.
While I am there I will be participating in Collective Bias’ Brands and Bloggers Speed Dating session and I have the chance to meet with great brands like Healthy Choice, Whrrl, Crocs, Catalina and e.l.f. I look forward to forming some long term relationships and strengthening already existing relationships with these companies. One of the reasons I started blogging was because I felt as if I was the “go to gal” in my circle of friends when it came to products, ideas and advice. I decided I wanted to share things I like and I am passionate about with a larger audience so I started my blog. In the past year I feel as if I have accomplished part of my goal, however I am still seeking strong relationships with brands. I don’t just want to review your product, talk about it for a few weeks and be done. I want more, and I think the brands that “get it” do as well. Working together as a team, bloggers and brands can accomplish great things.
As part of my trip I am excited to announce that I have been chosen as a Brand Ambassador for Crocs! Anyone who reads my blog knows we love our Crocs (seriously I wear them 90% of the time I have on shoes) and I feel like this is a perfect match for my blog. If you have any questions you would like for me bring up with Crocs or any of the other brands I will be meeting with, please feel free to leave me a comment or contact me through my contact form. My goal is to serve as a liaison between brands and bloggers and I hope future projects will allow me to do this.
Thank you for allowing me to be your “go to gal” and THANK YOU to the awesome companies who are making this trip possible for me! Stay tuned, I can’t wait to share wait I have learned with all of you.
