Need some help to make a rememberance

[chevy4x4trucks]

My sister's boyfriend (fiance) of 2 and 1/2 years just passed away this weekend from meningits and I thought it would be nice to make a video for both her and his parents w/ "their song" playing in the background.  Something that slowly rolls though pics of him and her together.  I'm not sure how I could go about doing this or if someone can do it for me.  Is there a program to do this?  Please someone help me out on this one.

 

I'm going to be scanning the pics in a few days and I'll post them on a site for someone.

 

I really appreciate any help you guys can lend me on this.

how bout a powerpoint presentation?

[MountaineerTom]

I think you can use powerpoint for that Jon, but there may be something better too.

consider me a video editing conaseiur (forget spelling that right)

 

 

I use adobe premier but you won't need to go that high end.

 

 

Download a copy of MGI videowave 5 demo that's free for 45 days.   All you have to do it drag and drop the images and wowlaa,  but the audio is kinda difficult

 

so I reccomend Microsoft Movie Maker for you, it's drag and drop  audio and video,  couldn't get more simple than that.

I talked to MErvz about doing this very thing.. he and SiiLT have used Swish for doing this type of thing.  Also Macromedia Flash... the link to Swish is in a post somewhere, I have forgotten exactly where I downloaded it from.... SiiLT???

Thanks guys.  I'll do some looking for the programs and see what I can do.

 

Larry, if you've already got the stuff how long would it take you to throw it together for me if you've got the time?

ahh  about 10-20 mins top's I think

I used Swish for signatures on another site that I was on when I also had access to an FTP client to upload too.  Swish worked nice, problem is, it takes up a lot of memory especially if you have a lot of pictures involved.

 

PPT is also a good choice, although I'm not sure how one would import pictures into it.  All the presentations I do simply have spreadsheets and graphs that I import in.

[NewbieZ71]

With PPT you would have to add each image as a graphic on the page.  I have never put sound with a PPT Presentation so I dont know about that.  See, PPT Presentation means Newbie gets to talk.  Now who would want to play music over that!?

you have to download the addon pack to get ppt to play audio, video.
