'''Step 4 – Add Music to Timeline'''
To make our photo slide-show more interesting, we need to add some music. You should have imported a music file in step 1. Click on the music file, and drag it onto Track 1 on the timeline.
'''Step 5 – Preview your Project'''
To preview what our video looks & sounds like, click the Play button under the preview window. Click the Play button again to pause your video. Remember, if you need to re-arrange any clips, just drag and drop the clips to move them.

'''Step 6 – Export your Video'''
Once you are happy with your photo slide-show video, the next step is to export your video. This will convert your OpenShot project into a single video file, which should work on any Linux media player (such as Totem, VLC, etc...) or websites (such as YouTube, Vimeo, etc...).
Click on the Export Video icon at the top of the screen (or use the File > Export Video... menu). Choose from one of the many preset export options, and click the Export Video button.
