We will not have a live show, or a Fun with Photos, on Sunday.
It's Mother's Day!
Did you know you can make a Mother's Day Movie with photos and music in just a couple of minutes? If you've taken a lot of photos of your mom, and if you use
Google Photos, here
are the steps to make a movie.
- Open Google Photos on a phone, or on the computer (photos.google.com)
- Click on the search/explore button
- In the first section you will see all the faces that Google Photos has recognized and grouped together.
- Find the group for photos of your mom and browse through them to verify, add the name "Mom" if you haven't already
- Now click on Utilities (Library, Utilities on phone)
- Create new Highlight Video
- Under
suggestions, click on Mom if it's there. If not, click on +Add person and find Mom's face. Select it. You may also want to select your face, then the movie will be of both of you. Google will pick a selection of photos with those faces.
- Click Preview And Save
- Your movie is now a .mp4 file that you can share with your Mom for a sweet Mother's Day gift. Just open the video, click the share button, copy a link and send her the link.
If you want to
make adjustments to the movie, you can remove photos, add other photos, change the music, change the layout, and move photos around.
