My exhibit using a slidewhow in digital photo frame

[Bob Michaels]

I have been asked to exhibit my South Apopka - Religion series as a part of Black History Month (February) at the Apopka History Museum. Exhibit space is small and there will be memorabilia from others there as well.

I am using a slide show of 48 images with background music I recorded at one of my favorite Pentecostal churches in a 15" digital photo frame. There will also be 3 large framed prints and an informational panel. Actually I am happy that I do not have to buy frames since most of my frames are in another exhibit in Mississippi.

You can see what the exhibit looks like as I have also posted it as a YouTube video here. That is also linked from my website but I still cannot figure out how to put the MP4 so it runs from directly from my website.

It will be interesting to see how this is received even if it is at a local history museum.

Yes, Bob, I enjoyed your website and I love your video with music.

You do inspire to get off my duff and get back to work...thanks!🙂

Excellent indeed and the music brings everything alive. Ususally I like to view pictures own their own w/o any background music but this is a perfect compliment.

Wonderful pictures and lovely slideshow. Very enjoyable as a whole. What a nice project to work on. Bet you met some great folks working on this.

Hope you don't mind me pointing this out, but I believe one image is repeated twice (0:31 and 2:31). Perhaps it's intentional or more likely I'm wrong.

.............. Hope you don't mind me pointing this out, but I believe one image is repeated twice (0:31 and 2:31). Perhaps it's intentional or more likely I'm wrong.

Good catch that I missed until after I did the upload to YouTube. Then I had to go back and redo the slide show for the exhibit.

I built the slideshow using Lightroom as it seems to give the best looking MP4 files. But I really do all my post production work in Photoshop and still do not understand Lightroom so it was a struggle. After all of that, I cannot get a MP4 file to run in my 15" digital photo frame even though it says they should. So the actual exhibit is JPGs in the photo frame slideshow mode with the music playing in the background.

BTW, the photo that was duplicated is one of the big prints accompanying the digital photo frame.

Very cool Bob.

Shows you have put in a great deal of effort on this production - you must have learnt a lot - and it was worth it.
Hope the show is appreciated by the 'general' public.
All the best.
