Ok thats not going to do. Its very very good and I would very much like to see the .exe file to get the full impact of the show.
Also how did you get so close to the performers? Please tell us more.
Sergents wot sing...whatever next.

I do love the seine. We visited Paris a couple of years ago, staying in the Best Western, Hotel literally 150 yards from the Arc de Triumphe. [Near the main bus terminus]
Relaxing music, and very good photography. Very much enjoyed this.

Update: I have completed the extended version and Bill has very kindly accepted it for Beechbrook. [please download it from Beechbrook]
It includes Italian and Japanese not previously seen. I altered the music and fixed my spelling error.
The mac version can be found here:

I echo all the sentiments above Mauren. The photography is stunning and the show is so well put together.

Finally got the time to view your AV, in a word Great!! The only point I would make has already been made by Peter regarding the music.
As a bit of a history buff WW2 holds a particular interest to me so I enjoyed the posters very much and am very envious of you with an attic full of them. Would have loved to see some from Japan and of course my home Australia but you probably have not got them.
Art in its many forms can be very informative about a particular time in history that it came from and the art of the poster maker is a good example of this. The styles of each country are quite unique and reflect the roll each played.
Thank-you very much for this show, it is a keeper for me.
Hi John
Thank you for the kind remarks. I do indeed have 4 from Japan and 5 from Italy. I didnt include them as I didnt want to overload the show. I'm doing an extended version and fixing the music which I will offer to Beechbrook and if its accepted I'll let you know.

Beautiful Maureen. I loved the progression to sunset. Beautiful photography.

Bill, The russian piece is the Red Army Choir and the Russian National Anthem.
Hope your family enjoy the show.
Years ago I used to do a road show round schools and Universities with a large display of WW2 memorobelia. I used to give them a lesson as it would have been taught under a Hitlerite education system.
Then a quiz finding the answer to printed questions from various books and artifacts on display etc. The kids loved it. I still have all the material.

Andrew,
Having watched your WW2 Poster sequence and noted the animations you were using, I think I might know why you are having difficulty.
The first animation I noted was when one of the posters was rotated about its Y axis and, at the same time, was panned horizontally to the right. I am guessing that you had all four keyframes on the poster object itself as follows:
K1 - Rotate Y start
K2 - Pan start
K3 - Pan end
K4 - Rotate end
You might even have had just two keyframes:
K1 - Start of rotate Y and of pan right
K2 - End of rotate Y and of pan right
Am I correct with one of these scenarios?
The secret of success in animation control is to use "Frames". I very rarely apply animation directly to the object itself. 99% of the time I set the object as the child of a frame and apply the animation to the frame. And if I want two or more different animations at the same time (as you did) I set up a nest of frames, for example, as follows:
Frame1 - Pan controller
Frame2 - 3D Rotate controller (set as a child of Frame1)
Object - set as a child of Frame2
Now I can programme the pan keyframes on Frame1 and define them as being "Smooth" and programme the Rotate Y keyframes to exactly the same pair of times (or different ones) without these being affected by anything I do to the pan keyframes.
I hope this makes sense. I suggest you set up a new project, just one slide and one extra object on that slide and have a play. It's quite easy to do.
regards,
Peter
Peter your the man. I just tried a movement with
frame 1
frame 2 [set as a child of frame 1]
object1 [set as a child of frame 2]
using the seperate here and drop down menu set to smooth I introduced 7 movements all of which ran as smooth as silk.
Sorted. Thats another thing I knew nothing about till yesterday.

Thanks Maureen. I have an attic full of this stuff.

Thank you all for the kind comments. Its very nice to get this kind of encouragement.
Davy - Sorry about the spelling. Its my Nemesis...as we know.
Peter, I agree about the music I should have spent more time on it. I wondered about the text for each country and in hindsight your right it doesnt seem to add anything. The trick I think is knowing when to add an element and when not. Hopefully as I get more experience that will come.
I'm glad you have all enjoyed the art work so far.
Andrew

Peter your correct in how you describe how I did that. I just never gave frames or anything else a thought. There is just so many ways to do things its mind blowing, and my mind blows easily these days.
I will follow your advice and try this using frames. It sounds so much easier.
Thank you again.

Posters of WW2.
5.53 Minutes
23.7meg
48 slides
This is a small selection of my WW2 poster collection.
Warning: Some may find the material contained herein disturbing and upsetting.
Please do NOT download this presentation if you find this type of material disturbing.
NB: The motion is almost all linear due to the fact I still dont understand the Setting up function.

Any advice I give is to be instantly ignored.

Love it Davy. I tried something similiar with my grandaughters and they loved that.

Peter, Quick question...
Is it better to use clone keypoint or add keypoint here? If clone keypoint is used does that also copy the motion from the previous keypoint and if Add keypoint here is used does that add a 'blank'
Andrew
-
Understood Peter. I've been practising with this and its tough!
Thank you for the help.
Andrew

Hi Lin and Peter, so I should create two keypoints say 1 and 2. Then on keypoint 2 I click on the setting up and select seperate here and select the smooth option. Have I understood that correctly guys?
I appreciate the help, this is driving me up the wall.

I have a slide with several objects and several keyframes per object.
I have no problem moving them around using linear motion, but the minute I change it to smooth...it totally ignores the KF's in between first and last and goes directly to the last position!!!!
I change it back to linear and all is well. I have several slides in the same presentation which I completed yesterday and they are using smooth motion and run fine.
I've restared the computer and also saved and closed p2e several times and deleted and re loaded the offending slides to no avail.
Linear motion is the only one to do the job properly.
Is it me or is something amis with my programme? Any help would be much appreciated.
