  1. Lakelandlass,

    Thanks for your tour of beautiful Venice! I am very impressed with what I saw. I showed your slideshow to my mom, she even cried with emotion.

    But maybe for the next slideshow, you could include close shots on details to show things with more variety (some close shots on doors, statues, walls, railings ... ).

    And I agree with this proposal. I also really like to consider details.

  2. Very beautifully done! I liked the movements of the hands, they are very natural. The hand does not just move to the side, but approaches and moves away in relation to the viewer. Imitation of a top view. Great way!

    Dom, you have the talents of an animator, you know how to observe and embody the nature of movements!

    Thanks,

    Aleina.

  3. thedom said correctly. The concept of “style” in PTE AV is closest to what Proshow Producer uses to understand the “template”. You can save any number of slides in PTE AV in the form of one style. Photos are thus easily replaced.
    You will need to transfer the required number of images to the timeline, select all of them, go to the “Styles and Templates” tab and select the desired style there.
    You need to add manually  only music.

    Once the slides are designed, they are easy to select and save as a style. This will be the basis for your further quick editing.

    Best regards,

    Aleina

    Lin,

    do you a tutorial on how to use Ruby's dolly zoom?

    Yes would be interesting.

    Since Lin cannot answer your question now, I will try to explain to you.
    The Dolly Zoom effect is a camera technique in which the main subject is practically motionless in the frame and the background is zoomed in or out. Understanding this, you can easily create an imitation of this effect. We need an image of the main object in PNG format (the background is transparent) and a rear view image with good resolution.
    1. Place the image of the main subject. We place it to your liking. Set the size.
    2. Below we place a layer with a background. In the first keyframe, set the background size to about 250. Or how you want. We align the horizon line, raise the image above so that our main object does not "float" in the air, but is always on the ground. Create another keyframe in the end of the slide and minimize the background size by about 100-120.
    3. You can leave it this way or add small movements to the main subject for realistic camera movement. I will use modifiers. I set the values
    Pan: X- Oscillation: amplitude 0.5 repeats 7
    Pan: Y - Oscillation: amplitude 0.5 repeats 10
    That's it, Dolly Zoom is ready!

    You can also study the attached project.

    Best regards,

    Aleina

  5. I can also tell you a little about this topic. The length of the video depends on the target audience. If you create wedding and similar family films, then there is a reason to make rather long videos. On the Internet there are many philosophical considerations and articles on this topic that I had to study by the nature of my work. It turns out there’s even a term like “torture with a slide show.” And before creating a video, I always think about the target audience so that for them my video does not become torture. Wedding and family films are intended for a narrow circle of people. They will mainly be viewed in a very close family circle. And the audience, most likely, will not be annoyed by a 10-15 minute film. (Although my husband runs away after 5 minutes of watching films with a family vacation) ... And an attempt to show this film to little-known people can be unsuccessful. If you are making a video for posting on social networks, then you need a different approach. I have been working in collaboration with a local scout club for several years. I make reportage videos for them about their activities. Theme of tourism and sports. They often travel in forests and mountains, parachuting. They collect a lot of beautiful video materials. The purpose of creating videos is video reporting and advertising. We started by creating 15 minute clips. Beautiful, with a full report. And we were very surprised why there were absolutely no reposts in the target communities. Then we switched to 3 minute clips. And there were no reposts either. We started talking with the administrators of the target communities, and it turned out that the 3-minute format was too long for them. Then we switched to Instagram format for 1 minute. This is very fast, I often need to place 15-20 video clips in 2-3 seconds + intro. Sometimes I have to increase the speed of video clips by 120-200%. But it’s these videos that adore social networks. Official communities around the country are happy to publish them. First of all, you need to respect the time of the audience. And you also need to consider the age category of viewers. The older generation loves slow shows and long films, and it is very difficult for young people to focus on more than 3-5 minutes. Well, experience shows that video clips lasting 1 minute are ready to watch with pleasure many times. And it does not cause irritation. As an example, I will show a 1-minute video about a trip to Elbrus in early June.

    This is the draft for the monoslide version.

    I don't know when I will achieve it, because from now I have no use of this style, so feel free to modify and transform it as you want !

    Bruno, thank you very much for your generosity! It’s true that the layout of the perfect album can be done for a very, very long time. I wish you not to lose enthusiasm! Already done a very difficult job!

  7. Bruno, you are well versed in the technical aspects of the program! Thank you very much for your help!

    I can also send you my project as it is

    You are very kind! I thank you for your help! I’m very interested to see which way you go in creating the album.

    Best regards,

    Thank you for sharing your experience! For me it is very valuable.

    In my experience, I find it easier to use multiple slides.

    My album is in multiple slides.

    Initially, I also proceeded from this position, I think it is easier to do.

    But even in this case, I have to create « transparent » duplicates.

    My task is to make the work as easy as possible for those who will use my project in their work. I would not want them to repeat editing in duplicates. Creating a style helps when changing photos. But this does not help if there is more than one text area. And I have 4 texts + 4 duplicates on each slide. A way to make non-editable images non-clickable for quickly finding the right layers, it works 90%. For example, you have a photograph on one side of the sheet, it is large, stands out when you click the mouse, and on the other side of the sheet is a small text. And it is already impossible to select it with the mouse, since it is in the field of action of the photograph.
    If the method of doing all the work on one slide also contains duplicates, this enterprise will not make sense. But most likely it will be so.

    You will find here attached a project made in 2011with only one slide.

    Thank you very much, this is a very interesting way! It’s not very clear to me how such sorting of layers “by depth” works, but I will definitely try it! The main thing is that this is a working method!

    And if I can help you, don’t hesitate to contact me.

    I am very grateful to you!

  9. Bruno, may I ask you a technical question? Is your album in 1 slide? Or is it a few slides? I want to make my album in 1 slide. But now I have constant problems with this. Those sheets that must first be on top (the right side of the album) should overlap (be on the bottom) to the left after turning over. How can this be better organized? Maybe it makes sense to use a mask? But I can’t imagine how. Or duplicate pages, use duplicates, changing their visibility?

    login error on the site (maybe this is only for Russia)

    I am from Russia, this link opens. But in my Cent browser, I see the same error after entering the email. Everything used to work well on this browser before. In the Yandex browser and in Mozilla Firefox everything is fine, the site is working. So maybe this is a browser problem.

    The tutorial is in first place in my YouTube videos recommandations today!
    « Somebody »’s watching my internet activities!

    This «Somebody» has become smarter than us! The search algorithm pushes us to what interests us. And this is good. Probably. :)

    Thank you for your kind words!

    Is it an adaptation or something you imagined ?

    I came across a tutorial on how to make a similar effect in Adobe After Effects. And since I have recently wondered if it is possible to implement in PTE AV what After Effects can do, I tried to do the same in PTE AV. Only in our program does it work better not as a style, but as a transition.
