Your opinions please on my latest slideshow creation...?

Question

http://www.dailymotion.com/julianjoepeace/video/x3jyvl_pause-for-thought_creation

I find transitions and effects in Windows movie maker a little restrictive and would have loved to have added Somethin' Else to this slideshow ... can anyone recommend a good moviemaker that is flexible enough to allow mp3 as well as wma, flv as well as mp4 and still provide some special effects like glitter text, firework cascades, mirrored video, split screen etc...?

This latest compilation is meant to relax and evoke thought ... if you dont fall asleep, can you let me know what you think please.

Many ThanX

Thanks for the feedback, I could do with extra effects though, methinks. Still, thanks for taking time to watch, glad you like it. Hope your friends will too. Dunno whether you can actually comment on the site though, I think you need to enrol.

Thanks again.

Hi B.A, I can't claim to have done any of the 404 clips and I agree some of them are a bit manic.

You can see others I have submitted if you click on my name link.. though I have vids on other sites as well because Dailymotion is too keen on copyright laws with regards to backing music.

I'm sure my clip wasnt the one that made you anxious, not my style. Thanks for taking time to view. God bless.

hmm, I forgot about me at the end ...scary huh? Though in my other vids there is a compilation of my lil' green family. lol.

Answer 1

Hi Petit Chou,
I love it!
I'm not clever enough to comment on how you could improve it but it achieved your objectives of relaxing and evoking thought. I absolutely loved the image of the magnifying glass on the book.
Did you do the 404 one as well? I had to keep clicking on the back arrow to view each image in the slideshow. I found it intriguing but not relaxing. The first image of the rusty chain and the music throughout made me quite anxious and I was totally freaked by the guy going beserk at his keyboard.
Thanks though.
You're one talented dude.
And now I know what you look like too which is a strange feeling. I always imagined you to be small and leafy and with a bit of a green tinge to your complexion.
