Deadline To Submit Videos For June Meeting

It's time to start preparing your slideshow video. Here's a terrific opportunity to put your photographs to music! At the club meeting on June 20th we're presenting member-produced slideshow videos. Every member is welcome, so collect your photographic images, pick out music, plan and prepare your show.

Videos need to be submitted by End of day, Thursday, June 13. Your video file should be named using the convention LASTNAME-FIRSTNAME-TITLE, for example "BECKER BOB-Bethlehem Scenes". All videos must be uploaded to the LVPC Dropbox (see instructions below). No submissions sending a link for LVPC to download the file or by streaming at the club meeting from your cloud storage will be accepted. 

 

Here are guidelines and suggestions to keep in mind when putting together your show:

  • Software: Lightroom has a slideshow module or Google slideshow software or find something that works for you. ProShow Gold ($70) is one of the best (http://www.photodex.com/proshow
  • Format: MP4 or MOV
  • Keep the show approximately 2 - 3 minutes in length, no longer than 3 minutes
  • Figure about 3 to 4 seconds per slide
  • For a total of 30 to 50 images
  • Include an opening slide with your name, title of the show and music credit
  • Sort out the order of your images before launching the slideshow software
  • Match the music to the images. In other words, have a clear relationship between what's being heard with what's being seen
  • To give your slideshow a strong, recognizable style, it's important to be selective and consistent about the effects choices (and other style elements like fonts & colors) used in your slideshow. 
  • Based on your images, pay attention to dark or light background effect styles
  • After you think the show is done, take a break and look at it again in a day or two. You may find it still needs tweaking

Upload your video to the LVPC Dropbox by going to:

https://www.dropbox.com/request/UapYhetQIxc8VaP4SC0D

 

Follow the simple instructions to upload your slideshow video file from your computer or your own DropBox. It will take a few minutes to upload your video from your computer since they are large files; so be patient.

 

 We look forward to seeing your work!
