Use GarageBand to make Narrated 1024 x 768 slide show?

I have a narration audio file (.aiff)
I have some 1024 x 768 pictures (all same size)
I want to create a QT movie of size 1024 x 768 with the pictures sync'ed to the narration.
Can I do this in GarageBand?
1) 1024 x 768 QT output essential
2) Control of QT compressor used would be nice
3) Slides should appear as single elements in the movie, NOT as 30 fps "video-like" images
- (e.g. I tried FCE already, it took 19 Mb of audio and slides and made a 1.2 GB finished movie !!!)
Thanks!

I'd think iMovie is a better app to use, as your audio element is simple. You can import the aif track into imovie and affix your images to the audio track. You can also use the "ken Burns" effect to lend some visual movement to still slides, if need be.
If you need more advanced audio , you can import the whole thing back into garageband. Imovee also give you the option to export at "full resolution", although if that is true 1024x768, I don't know.

  • Can different music be used with different set of photos in a slide show?

    Can different music be used with different set of photos in a slide show?

    Yes. The basic idea is that you make a playlist of songs and choose that to use with the slideshow, rather than any particular song. In iPhoto 11 you can do this in iPhoto. In earlier versions you do this in iTunes.
    There is a limitation. Each song will play the full way through, you can't croassfade from one to another and so on.
    Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
    iMovie, on every Mac sold.
    Others, in order of price: PhotoPresenter  $29
    PhotoToMovie  $49.95
    PulpMotion  $129
    FotoMagico $29 (Home version) ($149 Pro version, which includes PhotoPresenter)
    Final Cut Express  $199
    It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Express is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

  • How do I make a DVD of my slide show

    Made a slide show, exported it to iTunes where it now resides in "home movies" as a video.  How can I make a DVD of my slide show?

    If you right click on the movie in iTunes and choose "Show in Finder" you can then drag and drop the movie into the theme of your choice in iDVD.  More information on iDVD here: http://www.apple.com/support/idvd/

  • How do I make my keynote or iMovie slide show (with music) into a DVD, without iDVD as I don't have it and you can no longer purchase from Apple.

    I am new to Apple, since Oct '11.  ( iDVD did not come with this laptop).  I am making a slide show in keynote and can't download to iDVD to make it into a DVD that I can play on any home player. As far as I know, I need to make it into a quicktime file, then find some 3rd party software to convert to DVD. Has anyone had any luck with this.  I think I may just purchase an old copy of iLife from Amazon...

  • Can I make a DVD with multiple slide shows?

    I am making a project for my son's school. Each classroom (7 or 8 rooms) has their own photo show that I am making. The school wants me to put all of the photoshows on one DVD and separate classrooms into different titles, so families can skip to their child's classroom. So, in theory, I would have one DVD and about 7 or 8 chapters on it. Each chapter would be a different photo show. Can this be done? Is there a tutorial that would be able to help me with this? I have made a photo show and have burned it onto a DVD, but I haven't done anything that requires separate headers/titles. Thoughts? Tia.

    Here's a few useful tips when preparing the slideshow/s for an iDvd ...
    First suggestion is not to exceed 6 buttons per menu (although some themes allow for up to 12 buttons per menu).
    Secondly, don't exceed 99 images per slideshow if the objective is to present the slideshow on a typical set top dvd player or TV. Disregard this rule if you will use your mac / computer to present the dvd slideshow. Here's why:
    iDVD '08: After 99 images in a slideshow, set-top DVD player will reset to chapter 1
    In iDVD '08, your slideshows are no longer limited to 99 images. You can now have up to 9,801 images in a slideshow. When you are playing a slideshow on your DVD player, it will number the slides (which are chapters) from 1 to 99 and then start numbering over again at number 1 (on the one-hundredth slide). This is normal and not something you can control when you author your DVD. It is a specification that applies to all DVD players.
    Related documents
    Article 302962: Slideshow audio playback drops out after 99 images
    Thirdly, the following are articles to be aware of when making a slideshow/s with iDvd:
    Preparing images for iDVD slideshows
    You can use photos, movies, presentation slides (created in a program such as Keynote), or other image files in a slideshow created in iDVD. iDVD works with any image file that is supported by QuickTime (including PICT, JPEG, TIFF, and PDF.) You can also use photos directly from your iPhoto library.
    Images and movies in a slideshow are scaled to fit the standard DVD window size, but the aspect ratio is preserved. For example, a picture taken vertically (also known as “portrait format”) may have black bands on either side of it to fill out the screen. If you want an image to fit the DVD window exactly, use an image-editing application to resize the image before bringing it into iDVD. (It is not possible to resize movies.) Resize to these dimensions:
    ◼
    720 x 540 pixels for standard video in NTSC format
    ◼
    854 x 480 pixels for widescreen in NTSC format
    ◼
    768 x 576 pixels for standard video in PAL format
    ◼
    1024 x 576 pixels for widescreen in PAL format
    You can also make sure images in iDVD are always scaled to a size that will fit within the area visible on most TV screens, or the “TV safe area.”
    o fit slides into the TV safe area:
    Choose iDVD > Preferences.
    Click Slideshow.
    Select the checkbox labeled “Always scale slides to TV Safe Area.”
    Adding menus to an iDVD project
    Depending on which theme you choose, the menus in your iDVD project can hold either 6 or 12 buttons. If you need more buttons on a menu than your theme allows, or if you need additional menus to organize the content of your DVD, you can create submenus.
    Submenus give you flexibility in organizing your DVD. For example, perhaps you have several slideshows in your project. You can create a button on your main menu that links to a slideshow submenu that includes links to each of your slideshows. You can also create submenus for additional movies, extra features, and so on.
    To add a submenu:
    Make sure the menu to which you want to add a submenu is showing in the iDVD window.
    Click the Add button (shown below), and choose Add Submenu from the pop-up menu.
    A placeholder button labeled My Submenu appears on the menu. It has the default button style for the theme, so you may need to change it to match other buttons on the menu.
    Click the placeholder label for the new button once to highlight it, and type a new name for the button.
    When you click the label to highlight it, a light blue background appears behind the text.
    Using the pop-up menus in the in-place control that appears (shown below), change the typeface, font style, and font size of the button name if you want.
    To open the new submenu, double-click the newly added button. Notice that iDVD automatically applies the Extras menu style from your project’s theme to the submenu. Also, a Back button that returns to the previous menu appears on the submenu. You can now edit this menu just as you edit any other menu, changing its theme if you want. You can even use the Add button to create buttons that navigate to sub-submenus.
    For more information about creating submenus, see Related Topics below.
    And lastly, keep in mind you can also use iPhoto (as well as third party apps) for making a slideshow/s for use within iDvd.
    Using iPhoto slideshows in iDVD
    You can easily create slideshows in iDVD using images or albums from your iPhoto library.
    You can also add slideshows created in iPhoto to your iDVD project. These slideshows are imported into iDVD as movies, which retain the effects and sounds you created in iPhoto. As a result, you can’t edit or change these slideshows in iDVD, and viewers can’t manually click through the slideshow using the DVD player remote control.
    To import an iPhoto slideshow:
    Make sure the DVD menu from which you want to access the slideshow is open in the iDVD window.
    For example, if you want the slideshow to be accessible from the main menu of the DVD, the main menu should be showing in the iDVD window.
    Open iPhoto and select a slideshow.
    Choose Share > “Send to iDVD.”
    After several minutes, a button for the slideshow appears on the menu. The button has the same name as the slideshow.
    The slideshow also appears in the Movies section of the Media pane, so you can use it in other iDVD projects as well.
    You can change the name of the button by clicking the button twice to highlight the text and typing a new name.
    If iDVD is not open when you send your iPhoto slideshow to iDVD, iDVD opens to a new project automatically when iPhoto finishes processing the slideshow. A DVD menu, with a default theme, is displayed in the iDVD window, and it has a button for the iPhoto slideshow. In this case, if you want to add the sideshow to an existing iDVD project instead, choose File > Open, click Don’t Save, and then choose an existing project. When the project is open, you can click the Media button, then Movies, and drag the slideshow to any menu.
    If your version of iPhoto does not support exporting directly to iDVD, you must export the slideshow from iPhoto as a QuickTime movie, and then import the QuickTime movie into your iDVD project.

  • 1024 x 768 MPEG 2?

    Greetings and thanks for any tips you may have.
    Does anyone know of a way to make a 1024 x 768 MPEG2? I know that it will not be DVD compliant, but that's not what this is for.
    Thanks again!

    I tried just now, and it doesn't appear that Compressor will let you put in a custom size.

  • Is it legal to use GarageBand loops in a radio show?

    I'm wondering if it is legal for me to use GarageBand loops as short jingles in a radio show. For instance, something like this:
    "Thanks Sylvia for your call. Tell us what's on your mind by dialling 8888 8888 or send an email to [email protected]" *Tennessee Twister Short plays* "It's 22 to 9. How are you John?"
    They would be used standalone to make a short break between parts of the show.

  • Slide show - audio Narration & Sound Track

    IN PE7 is there a way to adjust the volume of the audio narration and the background sound track . If I add an audio narration to the slides and add a music Sound track to the show - The music steps on the narration and it can not be heard.

    Robert,
    In the PSE 7 slide show editor you could decrease the volume of the music soundtrack for its entire duration - but that may make the volume of the music too low when there is no narration. You can also add multiple music files to a slide show, but creating separate pieces (files) from a music sound track would require additional software to edit the music files and then difficult precise placement of the pieces of music around the narration. In my opinion, neither is really a good answer.
    What format do you plan to use for the Output command of your completed slide show?
    Do you also have Premiere Elements 7? If no, do you have other video editing/creation software on your PC?

  • I want to make a copy of slide show create from my own photographs and with a an audio track behind them. I have carefully followed the iDVD tutorials and burnt the result to a disc but image quality is very poor. What is wrong?

    I want to make a DVD of a slide-show with an audio track behind the photographs. I have carefully followed the iDVD video tutorials but the result is far from satisfactory. The quality of the images on the resulting DVD are blurred and indistict although the original photographs are of a very high quality. Where am I going wrong? Would I have better results from a different program than the inbuilt iDVD and if so so what programs have others found to be better? I should be grateful for some expert guidance.

    Hey Falcopebo,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Looks like you have image quality issues when using iDVD to burn.
    iDVD 7.0: Burned DVD has interlacing, pixelation, or image quality issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4078
    A standard DVD made by iDVD is made to the standard DVD resolution of 720 X 480, which is smaller than most HDTVs and monitors. When expanded to fit the entire screen or monitor, the image will distort slightly due to upscaling to fit the screen or monitor.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Formats for movie clip used in PSE 4 slide show

    Still finding it difficult to find documentation of what formats are supported for using digital camera movie clips in PSE 4 slide show.
    The movie file from my Canon camera is 640 x 480, 30 fps Motion JPEG and has a .AVI extension. I am able to use it "as is" in a PSE 4 slide show. However, sometimes I need to trim the movie clip in Windows Movie Maker 2 in order to keep only the best part.
    My question is what parameters can I specify to save my movie clip in Movie Maker 2 so that I can use it as a movie clip in a Photoshop Elements 4 slide show that will be saved as a WMV file?
    Barb O

    Karin Sue,
    >Also, are the projects saved in a folder somewhere, or only as part of the Catalog?"
    The definition of the "project", which is the "Creation" in Organizer terms is saved only in the Catalog.
    >If you publish your creation as a pdf or wmv they are saved in the folder you designate. Once published, I don't believe there is any way to edit. If you save the creation, you can go back and edit and republish if you like.
    Yes, the WMV or PDF file is saved in the folder that you designate. You are correct that if you save the Creation, you can go back and re-edit. When you Save the Creation gets a thumbnail within the Organizer photo well and you can click on the thumbnail to go back in to the Creation process make modifications and save a new WMV or PDF file.
    Note: that the Save window documents that the PDF choice does not support some options such as Pan and zoom, videos, and certain transitiions.

  • In PS5 can I make a slide show that needs a key pressing to go to next slide

    Hi I have been asked to make a DVD with a slide show on , made from a group of jpegs, that only shows a slide at a time and need a key pressing to move to the next image?. The way we used to do PowerPoint  presentations. The only way I can think is use Explorer, make the first image full screen and scroll through using the cursor keys!!! Chris

    99jon Thanks for quick and useful idea. Unfortunately I should have added in the question that the DVD was to be given to a friend who doesn't have Adobe software. Its like giving them a video DVD that they  can just load and run. I  am perhaps using a sledgehammer to crack a nut; its just that I started from this point, as PE/PS has a reliable DVD burner!

  • How to make a slide show that will play on a TV?

    I have a
    collection of pics that I have used the slideshow module t
    o create a slide show and it works great on my PC. How do
    I create one that I can burn to a disk and play on a TV?
    Do I need to purchase
    something else or will Lightroom3 do what I need? The slideshow that I created will play on other computers but, when I put it in a dvd player for the TV it says there is no disk in it. I have tried 4 different players. Am I missing something?
    I would be very gratefull for help with this!

    Alternatively, you can export a H264 mp4 from the slideshow module, dump it on a memory stick (or plain DVD) and stick it in the TV or your BluRay player
    Not all Blu-ray palyers can play MP4 container video files. So this may, or may not work depending on your Blu-ray player's capabilities. ALL Blu-ray players will play H.264 AVC HD video with .MTS file format, but Lightroom 3  does not offer this as a slideshow export option.
    See the 'Overview' section here for more information on the file system and folder organization:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVCHD
    The folder structure when using USB and SD media is different than DVD media! More information here:

  • Using iPod to present Keynote slide show to a projector

    I would like to use my new iPod Touch to present Keynote slide shows using a digital projector. If I could do this I wouldn't have to carry my laptop everywhere. Is this possible and if so how would I do it? What output cables would be required?
    Thanks

    This is a really great idea. I don't know that you can maintain the pauses that a keynote presentation has, though, because Quicktime generally doesn't have a click-and-go functionality (i.e., pause on this frame indefinitely, wait for input, continue) without scripting.
