Best way to create a slide show in Motion with 150 pics?

Is there an easier way of importing 150 pics into Motion instead importing each pic one by one? I tried one guys idea about creating a folder put all my pics in it, go to Quicktime Pro and create an Image Sequence, made sure the pics were numbered sequentially, selected 4 frames per second then saved the file. I then imported that file into motion and I could only see the first picture in the sequence! It wouldn't let me see none of the other pics. I am not quite sure I know what is the best way to accomplish this being as though I have so many pics to work with.
Any suggestions???
Thanks in advance!
Also what are some good settings beside motion blur that will get rid of any kind of noise or artifacts when i apply behaviors to the pictures and have them move around in 3D space?

I have lightroom 5.7. Now I have apple TV to connect my Mac to the TV scree. I wish to do a slide show on the TV. However, on the Mac, using ITunes to share photos with the TV, I cannot locate all photo files. What is the best way to save the slide show and put it where the Mac sharing can find it? So far, I made on one folder in Lightroom, put some photos there and I found them easily. Can this be done with a slide show? Please help quickly! Also worried that the photos I put on the new folder are hard to find afterwards, when the show is done. Where do they go when I delete from from the new folder?I am not alone

Not that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

Best Way for a Flash Slide Show on Website

Hello,
I have created a slide show in After Effects that I would
like to put on a website.It was converted to an .swf that was
placed on the page using Dreamweaver. The .swf is about 6000kb.
What I would like to know is if there is a way to display this
slide show using a much smaller file size? Is it possible to use an
.flv and can an .flv be looped? If there is a book that explains
how to do this I would be happy to purchase it.
Thank you,

It's great to look ahead to the possibilities, Shutech. I love to be prepared! You actually have a fantastic idea to change their line to a global capable phone for the time they're in Spain. You don't need to change the plan for any other lines on the account and can simply add a smartphone with global voice and data capabilities for the few weeks it'll be used in Spain, then reactivate the basic phone and plan when they've returned. Activating devices is easy at http://vz.to/186e0Pr.
Prices for voice and data service while traveling is always updated at www.vzw.com/global. If you chose to add a global capable smartphone, it will need a data plan active since it's a smartphone, but you can chose to have the user turn off mobile data and simply use WiFi to conserve global roaming costs. If you visit www.vzw.com/support and type the model phone along with the words "mobile data" you can find the easy steps how to do this. This would leave the phone's ability to send and receive calls and text messages.
We're here for you if you have any further questions. I hope your student has a fantastic trip!
Thank you

Is there a way to project a slide show using iPad with Chromecast? Other better solution?

When I travel for business I like to try to just bring my iPad and no laptop. I need to be able to project some slides (could be .ppt or .pdf). I have Chromecast installed and working on the TV. I also have the latest "free" version of Powerpoint on my iPad. I do not pay for the MS360 subscription at this time - I only use it to view slides as needed and edit on laptop. Series 3 iPad with latest software.
1) Is there a way to project a slide show to a projector or TV using Chromecast in conjunction with either Dropbox or Powerpoint, on the iPad?
or in absence of a "yes"
2) What is the best toy to buy so that I can mirror my iPad screen to a projector / TV? Note I don't need a $100 Apple TV brick, please.
Thanks,

Click For LINK OR THIS ONE FOR NOT LIGHTINING CONNECTOR CLICK FOR LINK 2
YOU CANT USE FOR Dropbox etc

Best way to create vertical slide navigation

I would like to create a nice navigation that opens up vertically to help users get around. What is the best way to do this?
Thanks!

Hello,
The rollover or dropdown menu will be the biggest issue, best way to realize that would be using a widget. I have been trying for another user to create a flyout menu, using effects triggered by advanced actions, but was not able to have this functionality more than once.
There are some widgets coming with Captivate: did you have a look at the 'GotoSlide_AS3' widget: it allows you to type in precisely the slides you want to offer navigation to. It will not dropdown on rollover, user has to click.
I do not understand your other wish: you do not want all the slides ready in the menu, only the ones that have already been visited? What if they did not visit anything yet, what do you want to show up for navigation? Which links should be disabled?

Best way to produce a slide show with good quality

OK, I know this is an ongoing issue, but I am trying to figure out the best way to proceed.
Made a movie of stills. They are jagged unless there is a title or a transition, then they are very smooth.
So anything rendered in iMovie looks good. How do I get from here to iDVD without the jagged stills?
I was even considering putting fake titles over the whole thing (with no text) just to render it nicely.
Why is this still a problem?

Best way to create an editable datatable to interface with a db??

What is the best way to do this in JSP? The table should have some cells that are editable text fields and some cells that allow the user to change a drop-down list. The table should have many rows (~200), be scalable, and ease of programming/code simplicity are needed to pass the code to novice programmers. Any good tutorials or methods would be great!
Thanks!

The table should have many rows (~200), be scalable, and ease of programming/code simplicity are needed to pass the code to novice programmersIt's definitely doable, but can get complex with the basic set of tools offered by plain JSP. JSF may be apt for your requirement. There are plenty of JSF implementations that may suit your editable table requirement.

Best way to create slide show with last photo having links

What are some of the best ways to create a slide show (more like a season greeting flash) with the last photo having links and buttons for the viewer to click?
I already have the code for the slide show. What I need now is how do I reference or point to a keyframe that contains the last slide as the background with buttons and hyperlinks? Perhaps, I also need a way to not showing this slide until the last? How do I do that? This last slide with buttons and links are on it's own layer.
The other route would be to create the buttons and hyperlinks in the AS3 code instead of design time. If so, how do I do on the last slide?

What's the best way to create basic scrolling up end credits

What's the best way to create basic scrolling up end credits with FCE. I want create normal look after the film that has a gap between the working title and the name (center-aligned, two-column
scrolls)
In the FCE Manual there was a good way to to do it with an asterisk (*) between the the words, but problem occurs when I had an umlaut (ÄÖ) in the word. The asterisk becomes visible and as many umlauts in the working title so many letters missing from the beginning of the name. I'm from Finland and we have lots of umlauts. So is there any other way to do this with FCE.

You can use Title Crawl in Boris to do this. You set it up like a word processor with a right aligned tab, a gap and then a left aligned tab. Double click in the ruler to create a tab stop. Double click it again to change its alignment. You use the tab key to move between the stops. It's kind of hard to explain, but if you play with it, I think you'll get it.
There is also Boris documentation on the install disc which will explain it more fully.

a. Elements Organizer/Create/Slideshow/Slideshow Editor
or
b. Solely Premiere Elements workspace
If Premiere Elements workspace, then we need details of the project preset that you or the program is setting. Is this an all photos or a photos and video presentation. If photos and videos, please give
a. photos, how many and pixel dimensions of each
b. video, format and duration
What is this slideshow end product going to be
a. DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen on DVD disc
b. AVCHD format on DVD disc
c. Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc
Many of these questions have already been asked, but I include them here to keep my focus on what needs to be learned about the issue.
If you need help in answering, please do not hesitate to ask.

Best way to create slide shows in PE4 and PSE 6

What's the best way to create a fancy slide show in PE 4 and PSE 6? I need to create a slide show of about 600 pictures. I'm on Windows XP with 3gb RAM. I've done this a few years ago in earlier versions of PE and PSE. Before i plunge into this again i wanted to get some overall guidance for what to do or not do.
My ultimate goal is to create a slide show that:
1. uses pan and zoom on every photo
2. transitions between every photo
3. has an audio track
4. has some nice special effects -- words and graphics that appear on slide at precisely the right moment to match the song, and stay on the screen as one slide transitions to another. i want the text to be able to move and fade in and out.
My view is that it's easy to accomplish #1-3 in PSE 6; it's quite simple to create a slide show, add pan and zoom, and transitions. However, #4 is not doable because adding text and graphics can only be done on a slide at a time and only when the slide start/stops (i.e., you can't have text appear 2 secs after the slide has started displaying and stay on screen while the next slide appears). Need PE 4 to do that.
What i'm wondering is:
-- is it best to create the basic slide show in PSE6 and then export to PE 4 to do the final fancy stuff, or is it best to just create the show in PE4? Seems that doing the pans, zooms, and transitions are easiest in PSE 6.

eric,
I am going to offer some reasons NOT to start this slide show in Photoshop Elements. This is despite the fact that I have used the workflow of starting in Photoshop Elements and used the Send Slideshow to Premiere Elements in PSE5 - PE 3 and PSE7 - PE7.
1- Timing differences between the PSE and PE slide show construction and processing
There are many differences in timing between the two products. Transitions can start/end slightly offset from their timing in PSE once they arrive and are processed in PE. Same for pan and zoom. Does this matter? Well the more precise your timing, the more potential for a show stopper.
Example: one person who wanted continual motion using pan and zoom needed to go modify the transition positioning and the keyframing of the pan/zooms on every single slide after sending a slideshow from PSE to PRE.
2- your requirement to
"words and graphics that appear on slide at precisely the right moment to match the song, and stay on the screen as one slide transitions to another. i want the text to be able to move and fade in and out."
You can't really sync the audio to a slide in PSE. The text can't move or fade in/out. I think that it will be more grief to retrofit these functions to a slide show that was created in PSE than it will be to do the all the work in Premiere Elements.
3- "Add the sound track for the ENTIRE slide show (this will be longer than i currently have slides for because i don't have all the photos"
I am suspicious that adding the ENTIRE sound track in one PSE slide show will not work.
I have done multiple sends from PSE slide show editor to Premiere Elements. However, I decided on the approach of using no audio in the PSE slideshow editor and adding Audio in Premiere Elements AFTER sending all the slide shows.
Again, your objective of syncing specific photos to music points is good artistically - but I am concerned that it will make your PSE to PRE workflow problematic.
4- "as new photos arrive, do the arrangement/pans/zooms in PSE and move them to PE"
As Steve mentioned when you do subsequent sends of the slideshow, it appends to the end - does not seem to fit your objective of replacing part of the middle.
Also if you get new photos in for the second section of the slideshow - but over in Premiere Elements you had already made other changes in the second section. There is no function to combine new changes doen in PSE and changes done in PE for that same "section" of the slideshow.
5- you did not say whether you will be outputting this slide show in Full Screen or Widescreen format. Will you be burning a DVD? If you will be doing widescreen output, additional problems with specifying pan/zoom in PSE have been identified on various forums because the PSE pan/zoom boxes are not widescreen aspect ratio.
Conclusion:
Some of my comments here are definitely subjective - however, it is my overall conclusion that your objectives and work plan are not a good fit for the Photoshop Elements slide show editor to Premiere Elements workflow.
My perspective on the Photoshop Elements slide show editor is that it is designed to simple, quick and easy. Therefore it has limitations.

I have created a slide show for a funeral buts it is taking too long to transfer to sub (like 24 hrs ). Is this normal or should I be doing this another way ?

Not the only one. Though I have not retryed my installation. Here is what happen to me and please verify if you had the same (sounds like it).
1. Installed 10.8.4 on top of 10.8.3 and install went fine.
2. I have installed a Niffy Drive (though no SD in it) ... but did not realize potential problem you suggest.
3. its a MBPr
4. Boot took for every (it 40 seconds from after I logedin to system screen on 10.8.3) but after (ie on 10.8.4) took forever 10-15 minutes with a cursor in the upper left on a white/gray screen.
5. I reinstalled to 10.8.3 and all works as before
6. But sounds like after removing niffy dirve I should reinstall??? Ie the problem I described was the same as yours.

I would like to create a slide show and then burn to a DVD. I may be interested in adding music. Should I use iPhone, iMovie or a simple Powerpoint?

I am going to be creating a slide show and then burning it to a couple of DVDs. I have used PPT in the past for simple slide shows for speaking engagements, but I am interested in adding music to this slide show. What is the best/easiest application to use? iMovie, iPhoto or Powerpoint?
Thanks!
Mike

burning it to a couple of DVDs
Is it your intention to create video DVDS that can be played on TV sets via DVD players? If so you'll need a video DVD authoring application like iDVD.
Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

I am trying to create a slide show but QT Pro won't open now

I am trying to create a slide show (Time Lapse Movie) from thousands of photographs and was told to buy QT Pro. After downloading QT 7 and QT Pro yesterday, the program would not operate correctly, although I was able to work with it somewhat. Today it started out Ok but then back to same as yesterday (will not open). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
