With our recent success of having a slide-show playing during both a reunion and wedding we thought it would be helpful to show you how to create a slide-show for your next event!

Pictures are a great way to relive the past and make your event more light hearted with some whimsical photos. So you have your pictures you have scanned them and they are now sitting on your computer so what's next?

There are different resources such as Snapfish or Shutterfly that allow you to upload your photos and then to purchase a disk which you can pick up at local stores such as Target or your local Drug or Grocery Store.

Here is another way with out having to leave your computer. Once you have the entire image in a file you can find an application on your computer called Movie Maker here is how you do it.

Go to C:\Documents and Setting\Admin\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft
and open up the application on your computer.

Or

Go to http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/moviemaker2.mspx where you can find instructions on how to download.

Once you have the program loaded & open you can then:

- Upload your photos
- Edit your movie (By adding video effects, transitions and creating title/credit slides)
- Then you can save it to your computer to replay or save it on a DVD

If you have any questions just Google, there are tons of sites providing assistance allowing you to be your own Film Maker.
