Can you do the effect from the music video Take On Me on Windows Movie Maker?

I don't see why not. The video is only using 'quick-displays' of photos. However, if you are wondering if you can add a 'virtual' hand (like the young lady takes hold of in the video), then NO, you can't do that in Windows Movie Maker. You have to remember that Windows Movie Maker is a very basic video editing application that is limited in what it can produce. To reproduce all the effects used in the Take On Me video, you would need a more extensive video editing program, a lot of expertise (and time to pull it all together).

How do you add videos to your playlist on Movie Star Planet?

Firstly you make a movie or artbook, then you download Hypercam2 or Bandicam. Once you have run them on your computer you can select the thing you want to video and video it. On your computer you should have some sort of movie maker, I have Windows Live Movie Maker. With that you insert the clips you want and can add music. After that on Windows Live Movie Maker you save it Recommended For This Project and then you can upload it to YouTube! Simples! I know this because my little sister plays MovieStarPlanet and I'm clever with computers, I helped her make YouTube videos. They take a bit of getting used to but you get better as time goes on and they are really fun to make. However, it won't automatically go on MSP TV. You have to email the staff or just hope they pick it to be on there.
