There’s something about creating a photo slideshow and making it look professional that delights a maker. There’s also something about posting your photo slideshow over YouTube and getting pleasant comments about it. Do you think it’s about time you create a photo slideshow yourself that you can confidently publish online?
Sure that photo slideshow making in an art but anyone can also make use of available software to “professionalize” simple looking slideshows.
In a tutorial to get started on photo slideshow making, AquaSoft Slideshow For YouTube an amazingly free professional slideshow maker, shows how easily one can achieve professionally looking slideshows that are YouTube-worthy. Again, AquaSoft Slideshow For YouTube is free to download. You can actually download it now and follow the simple steps below to start making your very own professional looking photo slideshow.
AquaSoft comes with a Program Wizard. You would need to first choose between 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio. Aspect ratio is the relative measure of an image’s width to its height. Expect that a 4:3 is more square looking than a 16:9.
You will be given another window with Toolbox, Object settings, Layout, and Timeline/Storyboard after you have chosen an aspect ratio.
The first thing you need to do in creating a photo slideshow is to add images to your image archive in AquaSoft. All added images may be previewed through the Layout Designer toolbox. Using the Object settings toolbox, manipulate image settings as you deem fit. All changes that you apply can instantly be viewed in the Layout Designer.
Without applying changes to each image’s timeline, each photo should appear for 5 seconds (default time setting). Depending on how long you would like the image to appear on your slideshow, you may adjust the setting. Text and sound can definitely be added along with the images to provided emphasis and add a little bit more of vitality to the images.
A full preview of the slideshow may be accessed by hitting play or pressing F9. Don’t be afraid to preview your work, actually, it would be better to preview it often so you get to have a feel of the continuity and timing of your work. Of course all efforts will be in vain if you forget to save your work.
Practice saving your work often. Computer applications have a tendency of breaking down when handling large images. Aquasoft will provide you the option for a Save button or a direct upload to YouTube.
