1st attempt at a slideshow

Hey everyone,

For those that make slideshows with their photos, what software do you use?

I just started playing with photos and slideshows and one day would like to add it to my services, but not until I get good at it.

Right now I am using a software called ProShow, it is good but a bit complicated. I have owned the product for about 24 hours now and am finally getting the hang of it.

This video is on youtube and I exported the file in HD. I think it came out ok but I need to learn to better sync the audio with my image, and learn more about timing and such.

I bet a videographer would be very good at making slideshows, much better than a photographer. Motion is really not my thing!

naa, its really good cuz you put it in a sequence. so its really enjoyable.
to be honest, i am not much of a fan of videography cuz they are loooong and boring.

ps. you should also start the thread in wedding forum, may be you'll get some pakistani projects as well.

Very nicely done.

Thanks for the tip, but I don't think that is allowed. I am not allowed to post my wedding photos in the "wedding photos" thread, the same will probably go with this. I don't want to look like I am advertising or anything and get banned!

The slide show is actually their album layout just put along side with music. Do you have any experience with slide shows? If so, what software?

I don't even offer slideshows with my service so I think it is ok for me to post this here, if not, MODS please PM me.

haaainn....who said it that you are not allowed?

and yep i do have experience with slide shows. and i have seen some so-called pro videographers slide show and they are bukwas (pathetic)

i usually do it on iMovie, or on Final Cut Pro

Mods suggested that I do not post my wedding photos that are for sharing or critiquing by the wedding community in the wedding forum and they insisted such a post would be better suited in this forum. I don't make the rules, I just follow them.

I do not agree because there is a wedding photos thread that has over a million views that is full of wedding photos...I am not posting my prices or saying "HIRE ME HIRE ME", but rules are rules.
