Make Dad a Personalized Photo Slide Show for Father's Day
|
Don't get Dad another tie! This father's day surprise Dad with a gift he'll cherish forever. Make him a father's day photo slide show that the entire family can enjoy watching together. Follow the tips below to make Dad an unforgettable slide show that will serve as a cherished memory for years to come.
- Gather Photos, Videos and More
Think about all the content you want to use in your slide show. Photos of the family throughout the years, vacation videos, photos of the grandkids, old drawings the kids made (just scan them to convert to digital), whatever you can think of that would add a memorable touch to the slide show you are creating.
- Drag and Drop Your Content
ProShow Gold's simple interface allows you to easily drag and drop your photos, videos and music right into a slide show. You can easily re-order the photos in your show, sync your show timing with your music, and more.
- Add Motion Effects
Think about the last time you watched a documentary on TV. Documentaries usually feature a mixture of video clips and still photographs that have a little bit of motion added to convey a feeling of movement. You can easily achieve similar results with ProShow Gold. Using the Motion Effects feature you can add a pan, zoom or rotate to any family photo.
- Add Photo Borders and Backgrounds
A nicely framed photo looks better than a bare one. The same theory goes for images in your slide shows. Add custom backgrounds and borders to your photos and videos to spruce-up your show. Use your own or check out some of the family-oriented content that we provide in our MediaSource product line.
- Add Music and Voice-Overs
Select a song that conveys meaning for you and your family. ProShow Gold will accept any MP3, WAV or WMA file. You can even rip a track right from a CD to use as a soundtrack for your slide show. ProShow Gold also has a built-in audio recorder allowing you to record a voiceover for your slide show.
- Add Custom Captions and Effects
Use captions to add descriptive text to your slides. You can customize the color, size, font and even add effects to your text. Create an introductory Title Slide or read below to learn how to create a credits slide with captions.
- Create a Rolling Credits Slide
At the end of your slide show right-click and insert a Blank Title Slide. This will serve as your ending credits. List out all the people in the photos, who created the show, who helped etc.. Then simply use the Full Pan Up caption effect to achieve the rolling credits look.
- Choosing Output
DVD is the best way to output your slide show if you plan on sharing it with the family. Gather everyone in the living room and present your finished slide show tribute to Dad. ProShow Gold makes it easy to create a custom DVD menu and lets you burn multiple copies of your DVD to have as backups or to give to other family members.
- For Dad's on the Go
Is Dad always on the go? Use ProShow Gold's Device Output feature to put a version of the slide show you have created on his Blackberry or iPod. A great way for Dad to carry around his special slide show when he is on the road.
