Who knew that a 63 second video would take all day to complete? Well, it did. Plus I now have a massive headache. I had a clear vision for my video with -roll footage but once again Adobe Spark was not my friend with adding video clips. I wasn’t able to upload my video that I took of my daughter. The formatting wasn’t right, so I abandoned ship and went to WeVideo. In hindsight, I should have ditched the b-roll footage and just stuck with pictures. I ended up using Wevideo as my final video editor knowing that I would have to pay for a month subscription to not have the watermark show, but what I was not expecting was the additional upgrade fee that I had to pay to use their pictures and video clip when I went to publish my video. I guess that’s not included in their packages. It’s an additional package fee. What I thought would take me two hours has over doubled in time. Hence, why I now have a massive headache.
I found adjusting the time for the images to be difficult once the transitions were added. It became easier to delete the image and reinsert it in order to adjust the time accordingly. I was surprised that I was able to shorten my video by 20 seconds by recording my voiceover and then adjusting my images. Overall, I am pleased with the end product.

Wow, I am sorry that it took you so long. I have already spent a few hours struggling with loading videos into Adobe Spark. I found some free videos on Pexels that I was trying to add since I was not smart enough to take any B Roll footage. If I continue to struggle with Adobe Spark I will take your advice and pay for a month of WeVideo. Thanks for sharing your honest journey!

I watched your video and Maddie's and both of you used Wevideo. After watching both of yours I wished I had used it but after reading your blog, maybe not. I'm sorry you had so much trouble. But your video turned out great!
