DVD Slideshow

|
John's Darkroom can
transform your photos and slides to a moving slideshow that you can
play on your computer or TV. Along with the visual memories, your
favorite songs can be played in the background as well as titles for
the photos and various chapters.
A perfect gift for someone to cherish and a gift that will be
remembered.
All work will be done on DVD-R disk unless otherwise
requested. The disk will be placed in a 14mm clear DVD case, similar to
movie cases and not a slimline jewel case, with a cover insert with the
title chosen by you.
The video DVD will be playable on your DVD player or PC
computer. To
check the compatibility of you DVD player please check this website here.
If you have any questions regarding the DVD slideshow services
please contact me.
At this time I am not set-up for mail orders.

Along with the chapters select the music that you have that most suits
the theme of the chapters. Then mark on the back of you photos or

a
pencil, starting at 001, 002 etc.

everything for the chapter in an envelope and note on the envelope the
name of the chapter, for example "Vacation to Jasper". Continue for the
next chapters.

sure the photos are scanned at a resolution of 300 DPI and saved as jpg
files with file names as 001.jpg, 002.jpg etc. in the order you want
them shown. Check each scanned image for colour and any damage as the
images will be placed on the slide show as per the disk. Place each set
of images in file folders
named with your chapters, for example "Vacation to Jasper", "Wedding"
etc.
