  5. A Late Christmas

    in Slideshows & AV Shows

    Posted

    I just finished this presentation card.

    For a long time I had an idea to make an animated Christmas card, but how to make falling snow, well last week Lin Evens told me how to do make it, thanks Lin, it helped me alot.

    So maybe a bit late to show you the card, but I'll do it anyway.

    About the card:

    The picture was taken in Middelburg, a very nice town with lots of photo opportunities in south western part of Holland (Zeeland, translation into English: Zealand, New Zealand gets it's name from it).

    Falling snow, snow on houses and street were painted in layers in Photoshop, as were all the Christmas lights, lights in the houses etc.

    Houses, moon and clouds are photographs by me, Santa was taken from internet

    All these graphics were saved as PNG transparent files and imported in PTE, see attached screenshot of the objects/animationscreen in PTE of this presentation.

    Music track from Elvis his version of White Christmas, was edited an additional sound effects were put in.

    Music and sound effects were mixed in: Acoustica MP3 audio mixer and saved under another name as MP3 file.

    Well this is the link to view the card (13mb): http://www.foto-beeld.nl/presentaties/x-mass-card.exe

    All suggestions on how to improve the presentation are welcome.

    Dear Paulo,

    Your comments on my presentation does not offend me, it is a constructive comment, thanks for your comment.

    The quality of the images, you are right about that, higher quality would be better ofcourse, but for this presentation not possible.

    Because all of these images are from other members of our Webfotoclub, I cannot do muc editing because of copyright, therfore 3 images are not completely in black and white.

    For future productions I try to get higher quality images from our members.

    Dear TheDom,

    I understand what you mean, right now I'm doing some editing and try to do what you propose, unfortunatly higher resolution images are not available for me now, it should be a surprise to the members, cropping is not always appreciated with pictures from someone else, so I won't do that.

    As I understand you say fade to black after every slide, or just after a few sildes, ans would panning better than zooming the pictures?

    The show has to be finished before new year.

    Telling a story is very dificult especially when you have to choose from arround a few 1000 pictures which are not yours, there are about 89 pictures in the movie which quallify for this movie.

    Thank you for your much apreciated input, I hope you find the time to answer my question about panning/zooming and fading.

    Dear forum members,

    More and more I get the hang of P2E, I've created several slideshows now.

    But more I turn the slideshows into short movies with a soundtrack from a movie.

    I'm a member and moderator of a digital photoclub (WFC, www.webfotoclub.nl, Dutch), two months ago I was asked to make a presentation of the pictures of our members, because on january 25th we have a club meeting, so far I've made five presentations, of which the one I would like to show you now, by far the most complex one is.

    For 90% all photo's are in black and white, music is from the movie V for Vendette, it's a suspense like movie, well I should be stop talking and give you the download link for the movie, tell me what you think, it still need some fine tuning but I'm working on that.

    This movie took me approx. 4 weeks (not non stop) to build.

    The download link: http://www.foto-beeld.nl/presentaties/urban-suspense.exe (25mb)

  15. Video Builder 5.5 templates

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Dear forum members,

    I want to make my first DVD with video builder, there are a few templates from which I can choose, but what if I want to have my own template?

    In other words, how can I make my own template for video builder for my DVD's?

    I'm sorry if there is already a topic on this, but I couldn't find it.

    Good presentation Igor, nice to see the zooming effects in this one, I will try to do this myself in a next presentation of which some can be seen in this posting: http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8598

    By the way, I have a licensed version of PTE 5.1, what do I have to do to upgrade to 5.5, just download it and install and use the key I have? Do I need to delete the previous 5.1 version?

    Thanks to you and your team for providing us this great program.

  21. Questions on next version 5.6

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Like other in this topic I did my best to read and understand all, no luck totally, I stranded on page 3 an wanted to add my comments to all of this.

    I started to use PTE 5.1 last year, so I don't have any experience with older versions.

    What I do know is the smooth working with PTE5.1, I found no troubles working and making shows with the program.

    It feels light to work with.

    When you get a new program it takes a while to get used to it, but when used to it it goes smoothly.

    I have no problems with the suggested updates of which this topic started by Igor.

    But I have one wish, keep it simpel and light, that's all.

    The full size presentation (1200x900 pix) of FLC2008 and FLC2007 I will upload to the same map as the smaller files are, but I will first see if I still have enough webspace to upload them, if I do have enough space I will upload both and will notify you all.

    Also I will supply the names of the soundtracks I used for the FLC2008 presentation, but all this later when I'm home from work.

    See posting below for details en download links.

    Hi,

    Since a year I have PTE 5.1, great, since then I've greated several presentations from my work as an amature photographer, mainly macro.

    Now I realeased (a big word for just an amature) my 2008 version of the FLC (Fears Little Creatures) presentation.

    It can be seen on my website: www.foto-beeld.nl (unfortunatly only in Dutch), click on the second button called "Portfolio" and choose the last option: "Dia presentaties macro" (on this page you are able also to see my work) or go directly to the presentations page: http://www.foto-beeld.nl/portfolio_presentaties.html

    At the moment there are 3 PTE presentations, besides the 2008 version of FLC there is also the 2007 version and a butterfly presentation.

    Of course all presentations come with a soundtrack.

    The soundtrack of the 2008 version of FLC was created from four pieces of soundtrack, one from the movie Hankock, and 3 pieces from the 3 Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

    I hope you will like them, and by visiting my website you will be able to pollish up your Dutch ;)

    Feel free to leave a message on this page: http://www.foto-beeld.nl/site_info_nieuwsb..._biografie.html and click on the third menu option: "Een reactie plaatsen"

    Thank you!
