Tutorial

[Marianne]

Hi,

I am an active member of a Dutch photography club. Every fortnight we have a meeting. In next years program there are 3 meetings in which I have to give a tutorial on making a slideshow. Guess what software I am going to introduce?

But now I wonder if anyone of you already done this. It doesn't need to be in Dutch, but it should be very helpful if I had an example of the method used in teaching. I want it to be very complete. So from starting with your pictures, preparing them with a photoeditor, converting the music to mp3, creating the slideshow and finally burn a cd.

Of course I know the excellent tutorials of Al Robinson and Oleg. But these are electronical. I need it to be in the oldfashioned paperwork.

Hope someone can help me with this....

I have some jpg screen shots that might (not) help. I have used them in a short tutorial.

But I need your e-mail so I can attach them in a note to you.

The PTE forum e-mail form does not allow attachments.

Pls send an e-mail to me at jrr@magma.ca and I will send them to you.

I have recently done a talk introducing PTE at another local club so, if you think it might help, just e-mail me.

The following are my trigger notes for an instructional evening I gave to my club. "How" was the title for the evening and whilst I was giving my opening spiel my grandson took digital photos around the room. Preparation of the images, although instructional, was time consuming, but my grandson finished the work on these in the fifteen minute tea break. The rest of the evening went generally according to plan although I felt that a further evening was needed to give it justice. However the end result was a short AV produced from scratch.
