Photo slideshow templates

are there any templates to download to make a professional photo slideshow that can be imported into FCP?

Hello,
You might want to test Photo to Movie. I have used it for many projects and it works
well in conjunction with FCP. They have a 30 day trial, and the learning curve is almost
fun. I have generated complex pans and scans then did QT output in HD then imported
into FCP for more effects.
Good luck, Tom

Modern Photo Slideshow template help, please...

Hi guys and gals... Happy Thanksgiving! Now, back to work,
right? Yikes!
First time questioner, and I think I've done my due diligence
on searches, etc, but...
I am getting back into Flash usage after a few years off, so
I am pretty rusty. I'm stepping on the
Modern Photo Slideshow template that comes with CS3, and am
almost done! I've resized, deconstructed the god-awful controller
down to something simple and elegant, added all my client's 27
images, set the publisher to play=true...
BUT, I can't seem to break the code: I'm trying to get it to
start in Autoplay=1 mode (play on download), but it keeps skipping
the first frame. I've tried quite a few very simple code tweaks,
like changing various zeroes to ones, but can't seem to find the
rosetta stone.
If I simply add a null frame to the beginning, so that image
1 is at frame 2, it goofs up the framecount, as well as the looping
elegance. I guess that would be fine, if I could figure out the
proper syntax for making the framecount display (i.e.: 1 of 27)
equal to framecount-1 to compensate for the null frame at the
beginning. However, that 's just a Big Hammer method of solving my
problem. Surely there is a more effective and proper way?
Summary: All I really want it to do is start in
autoplayStatus=1 without blowing past the first image.
Anyone know if this is a simple code tweak? I'm so close, I'd hate
to switch to a different template, as the client loves what I've
currently got.
Thanks so much!

Found the answer: when you double-click the mc, controller
sitting on the stage, there is a frame script that has about 58
lines of code. Sitting at the bottom is
autoplayStatus = 0;. When you set the value to 1 (one) and
test the movie, is starts in auto-play mode.

How/where to get more photo slideshows template/designs?

I am trying to use iPhoto and iMovieHD to do some photo slide shows. Like to know where I can purchase/download more slideshow templates?
Thanks

khswoo:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can't as there are none. You might look at PhotoPresenter. It works with iPhoto and has some spectacular 3D themes. They can be saved to Quicktime if you need to add to iDVD. Worth a run of their demo.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

Adding transitions to Flash Photo Slideshow template?

I'm working on generating a template i can use to just drop in photos from shoots for a blog where i discuss the types of projects my team does.
I like the flash slideshow template because once it's all set up the way you want it you can just drop all the photos in on import.
I got everything pretty much tweaked out how i want it - got rid of the controller ball and put the controls and counter on the frame, got it to auto start with the pause/play toggle working correctly (thanks to this forum)
BUT
now i want to add a transition between photos.
I'm thinking I want to extend the number of frames each photo is on stage for add a new layer with a white or black solid and have that fade in and out so that i really can just import in the new images in each time and not require more tweaking but i can't figure out how to change the advance code to say something like "current frame + 15" and set the counter up so it's not affected by the new frames...
I'd like to leave the photo key frames as unmodified as possible so that in the future it really is just a question of dropping in new photos for each blog post...
ideas?

Jim,
You have two ways of doing this,
1.You can put the pictures into Photoshop / Photoshop Element and use the text tool to add your captions.
You can do it in any color or font and then drag it right into iDVD.
2.or do it in iMovie - You have a wide assortment of titles in iMovie. Just uncheck the over black square, I would use the Subtitle, write in the space provided and then pull down the word T Subtitle in front of the picture where you want the titles to appear. Adjust the time with the bar on top. You have a choice of color also. Then put it into iDVD.

Photo Slideshow Speed

How can I slow down the speed that my pictures do past using
the photo slideshow template? Also is there an easy way to make my
pictures all the same size? I only have Flash and I tried ifranview
but I get error messages saying that it can't recognize my photo
files.
Thanks

Your probem sounds similar to what I was exeriencing with iPhoto Slideshows and my ATV. On my MacBook the music and slideshow played perfectly. On my ATV one slideshow plays fine, with others the slideshows ends, before the music is over and both stop out of sync. Checked all the settings on the slideshow that works, against those that would and everything was the same. Very strange....

Photo slideshow for webpage

Please help -
When visitors open my homepage (I'm using Dreamweaver 8) I
want them to see an image that changes (like a slideshow). Is Flash
the best thing to use? I have tried using the photo slideshow
template from Flash, but find that it is still necessary for my
users to click the arrows in the "controller" in order to begin
viewing the images. Is there a way to have the slideshow begin
immediately and then continue looping?
Thank you much for your expertise - it is much
appreciated!

I use resolution 72 which is really ugly if printed... I think watermark is distracting to the viewer
Also, the Kodak "golden standard" 778x517 is often used for this purpose. While it's pretty close to 800x600, supposedly it displays a bit faster, especially true for slower systems
As Rikk previously mentioned, the file export specification of "resolution" whatever the number (even 72) has no bearing on someone's ability to make a print from the file at whatever resolution they choose (within the limits of the pixel dimensions you make available); it's the pixel dimensions that will limit printed size/quality. Perhaps you meant that you use a jpeg "quality" setting of 72, which is indeed fairly low. That might even be set even lower to enable reasonably good web display yet discourage printing.
As to use of watermarks, yes, I agree they can be distracting, but not necessarily. A watermark can be chosen that is a compromise--minimally distracting yet prominent enough to discourage some (maybe not many?) from making a print.
As to the supposed (Kodak) "golden standard 778x517" : I wonder if you are thinking of 768 x 512? In any case, it's certainly not in any way a unique dimension that offers a special advantage in display speed. Sure it should load "a bit" faster than 800x600 since it contains a smaller number of pixels.

How can I get the standard Adobe CS4 sample templates, like the photo slideshow? Thanks

I just got Flash CS4. I think it is supposed to have several categories of templates. I only have the advertising category. How can I get the standard Adobe CS4 sample templates, like the photo slideshow? I cannot find anyplace on the Adobe.com site for template downloads.
Thanks
Mark

I have the same question-- I don't see any template categories apart from "Advertising"-- where are they?

Flash Prof. CS5 simple photo album/slideshow template

I am trying to use the "simple photo album" template that comes with Flash Prof. CS5. I have it working except I want it to play by default. The actionscript that came with the template is below (in blue), but if I set var autoStart:Boolean = true; I get the following error and the controls do not work:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this so that the slideshow starts automatically and stops when the pause button is clicked?

I finally got it to work, but had to edit the action script because it seemed to have a logic error. Here is the action script I finally used; maybe this will help you:

Can I adjust size of the photos on front page of the photo album template?

When I am working on a Photo Album page, how can I make the "front page" photos larger? I am talking about the photos arranged in rows, not the photos that show in the slide show carousel. Is it a set size in the Photo Album template or is it a consequence of how large a photo I set into the page?
Also, how is "large" defined? Is it about inches, or is it about resolution?
— Lorna in Southern California

I found the large too large and the small too large.
How large do you want them Lorna?
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Michael, where did you go to check to see that the large was indeed too large and the small too large? What method of adjusting the size are you using?
If you want them really large, why don't you just
plonk the real photo on the page sized as large as
you wish, and you can always link it to its own page
with an even larger version!!
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Michael, actually I misstated in my first post. Actually I would not like the photos in the Photo page to be too large, because then no one will be motivated to click onto the See Slideshow button.
My mind is getting so crammed with input and other people's websites that I now cannot even recall with certainty which pictures I wanted larger. 8-( Oh, this is giving me a cramped-in-the-chest feeling. I had best take a break now and finally eat a legitimate meal.

Photo slideshow software

i've been using imovie to create photo slideshows, sometimes incorporating motion 4 into my projects... does anyone have a suggestion for a software that provides additional templates and design that i can incorporate with imovie? or final cut? thanks

I personally prefer using imovie because I am an imovie-holic!
It really just boils down to which application you are more familiar with. both do a great job, IMHO. Some say that the quality of the photo is better with iphoto, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder-I don't see much (if any) difference.

Embedding a photo slideshow to web page

Hello my name is tom.
Im looking for any and all help that can be given. I recently took on a project of putting up a website for a friend. I will be the first to admit I
am NOT a programmer or coder. and some stuff is very confusing. Anyway I want to embed a photo slideshow (made from fireworks cs4)
into a web page. What I actually wanted to know is how to edit the files created to get it to work on the webpage.
It (fireworks) created three files and two folders with the photos and thumbnails in them which are ---- index.html, black_player.swf and slideshow.xml
im trying to explain it the best I can (bare with me) If someone could explain in detail what to and how to edit I would grealty appreciate it.
I have tried and got as far as getting the the player to come up. but no images in it. One thing I do know I cannot put the html file in the public_html folder
cause I'm not running the player off the main page. I actually want to run it off a sub folder public_html/Gallery/RFL the images folder is inside this folder also. please please help me!!
Some info if it will help
The site is http://www.sluggos-inc.com it's not up yet.
Oh yeah I have the site set up as frames I would like this player to play in the main.html frame. the template i included might work I think all the graphics point to the server so it should.
Thanks in advance if anyone could help.
Thomas

I've never used the slideshow feature in FWs, but due to the large number of questions here and on the Fireworks forum I decided to give it a go :-)
When I created the slideshow I was asked where I wanted to create it, so I choose a folder on my desktop.
It created:
Scripts folder
Images Folder
Index page
player_black (the skin for the Slideshow)
slideshow xml
You can always change the location of the folder where the slide show is created, that is - create the slideshow into a sub folder of your working site files. That way there will be need to move any files around as I descibe below.
However, what I did was:
I copied all those folders/files into a sub folder of a defined Dreamweaver site named: Gallery
I then opened the Gallery folder within Dreamweaver and found the index page and opened it, viewed in a browser and had no problems with viewing any of the slideshow - images were all in tact.
You need to be careful that when you move all your files that you copy *all* the folders and files that were generated when you created the slideshow. Also, when you upload the slideshow make sure that you upload *all* the files (as created above) to the remote server - that includes the scripts folder.
You do need to be careful when moving the files that you don't move them into the root of your defined site, otherwise your original index.html page will be overwritten by this newly created index.html which is the slideshow page.
The best method would be to initially create the Slideshow directly into a subfolder of your site, that way, if you ever need to update the slideshow, fireworks will know where your original files were saved to. Otherwise, you may find that you won't be able to edit the original working files as the links may be broken or whatever.
Hope this helps a little :-)

How do i make a photo slideshow / banner for the welcome page in iWeb

How do i create a photo slideshow or fading slidshow for the welcome page in iweb

There are trillions of slideshows to be found on the internets.
Download the one you like, make it work the way you want and put it on the server.
Display it in the browser to see if it looks the way you want.
Then use the <iframe> html element to display it in a HTML Snippet.

How to create a photo slideshow in my movie

Hello all,
Im woking on my first movie with Premier Elements 12 and I can not figure out how to include a slideshow of pictures at the end of my movie.
Of course I can drag the photos on the timeline and use trancients in between but there is nothing I can do with the picture like editting/cut parts off, make them black/white and use movement effects for example.
Isnt this an option/included in Premiere lements 12 ?
I just bought the software but also played around with the trial of Cyberlink Powerdirector which has this handy magic function to select all pictures at once and create different/random trancirents and effects and pictures could be editted also.
This is what Im after but I can not find how to do this stuff in Premiere lements 12.
Hope someone can help me out.
Thatnks in advance

AlexSan
Do you have Photoshop Elements 12 as well as Premiere Elements 12?
What is this "movie" that the photo slideshow is going to be at the end of? A video? If so, what are the
properties of that video...video and audio compressions, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, file extension, pixel aspect ratio?
What is your intended final product...DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen on DVD disc, AVCHD on DVD disc, or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc?
With the above information, I will suggest some approaches that you might want to look into.
Thanks.

How to apply a specific music for each photo slideshow

I'd like to setup a specific music for a specific photo slideshow, and to store that preferences, in some way, so that, on selecting a slideshow, automagically startup the specific song.
Is it possible ?
Seems not ... yet.

You can do that by preparing the slideshow in iphoto instead of on the tv, you then have to ensure you sync the slideshow and the tunes you have used in the slideshow before playing it on the tv.

How to display a photo slideshow in Widescreen 16x9 format?

I just bought a 5g iPod and the A/V connection kit. I can play a photo slideshow on my 16x9 TV, but it stretches the photos to fit the screen, so they are out of proper aspect ratio. Is there a way to tell my iPod that it should be displaying the photos on a 16x9 screen?
I understand that there is a widescreen option in the Video playback menu, but this does not seem to have any effect on the output of photo slideshows.

Jon,
See if this works. It may or may not.
Go to videos-->video settings-->Widescreen-->On
See if now when you play the photo slideshow it works right.
Now, if it doesn't then I don't think there is much you can do.
