Making A Basic Av Using Pro Show Gold

A Few Things To Ponder.

What is the purpose of the Av ?

1. A Family Slide Slow In DVD Format2. Recording An Event. Produced as a DVD or Exe File.

Could Enter In C.C. Competition ??3. Theme Type Av. Need to Stand Out For the Judges.4. An Av That Tells A Story With A Beginning, Middle &

End. This Type Is Needed If You Intend Scoring A High Mark.

More points To Ponder !!

Some Faults1. The Music Must Suit The Av Theme or

Tempo.2. When Publishing The Exe File Untick The

Controls. Play,Pause,FF etc. Looks Bad.3. Avoid Padding. Quality Better than

Quantity. Just Because You took 4000 shots. No Need to fit them all in the Av !

Post Processing1. Make sure the image is the best it can be

by processing it in Photoshop, Light Room or even Faststone or Similar Freebie. Leave Out Softies !!

2. Don’t Over Sharpen Your Final Image As it Will Be Magnified In Final Screen Shot.

3. Make sure Each Music Track is Roughly the Same Volume. Nothing Worse Than The Levels Going Up & Down.

Basic Organization For An AV PresentationNo Matter What Program You Are Using !Keep All Your Eggs In The One Basket.It takes a little thought but you will be working out of the one folder for all operations, pictures, Music, Including saving the exe file. All In The One Place

Dump Pictures, Music, Sound Effects and Save Exe File here as well

Create One Folder For All The Av Components

You can copy the whole folder and transfer it to a mem. stick or someone else's computer. The PROGRAM Knows where everything is. Hopefully you will too which is more important. Early preparation lessens frustration.

There’s nothing worse than forgetting where the music is located or the sound effects.

Select Your Pictures By Holding Down The Ctrl Key. Then Slowly Drag Then Into The Film Strip

The Slides Now have a Nice Black Border On Either Side.The Fix: Open The Slide Tab. Select The Offending Sides.Go To Scale Slide. Hit Fill Frame.Slides Will Be 16:9 and the frame will be filled

Now For The Hard Part : The Music

Fading The Main Track At The EndTo Manipulate The Sound Track Use 2 Simple Keyboard Controls

1. Tap thTAB key once to reveal the enlarged MUSIC TRACK2. Tap the Crtl Key to Reveal the the Control Points (Handles)3. With Crtl key held down you can make a Triangle shape and with your mouse

and its easy to fade the track or lengthen it.

Tab Key Enlarges Track

Ctrl Key Reveals Control Points

The Final Step Is To PUBLISH Your Av. The Publish Tag Will reveal The Screen BelowChoose The PC Executable for Comps and the DVD To Play Through A DVD Player

When you start to Publish the Exe File it asks where do you want to save it. Yep you guessed it. In the same folder you have the Pictures and Music.
