It's the only movie software program I needed. Now it's gone?

I swear I remember using storyteller or a similar MS-branded software back in middle school/early high school, around the early-to-mid 2010s... It was retired by that point but I had found some copy online because I needed it for a school project parodying the Sarah McLachlan pet commercials.

Yes. The name escapes me, but it was written by somebody in Microsoft Research and did a really nice job.

The photos group just ignored it, for reasons, surely stupid ones.
