Can PhotoPresenter display a slideshow with the contents of a folder that changes dynamically?
by Tino - Thursday, August 28, 2008 - Permalink
Yes. Download and install the PhotoPresenter Scripts, and select the item “Real-Time Slideshow” from the Scripts menu in PhotoPresenter.
This script launches an slideshow with the contents of a folder that can be changed dynamically. The slideshow is restarted each time the contents of the folder is modified. (Note that sub-folders are ignored.)
If you need a more complex behavior, you can edit and modify the script, which is located in the folder ~/Library/Application Support/PhotoPresenter/Scripts/.

IT-Enquirer: "Impressive array of features"

I found iStopMotion to have an impressive array of features to make your work as easy as possible. (...) It’s certainly worth the price, and if you’re going to use to add some spectacular or fun-looking info-animations to an online publication, it’s just cheap.

It's nuts
by Oliver - Thursday, August 07, 2008 - Permalink
Don't use FinalCut Pro (FCP) to create slideshows of still images, use Fotomagico. What had taken me five hours to create in FCP, downsizing images, creating start and end markers for motion and adding sound... took me TEN MINUTES in Fotomagico. It's nuts. I don't even care to guess at the insane amount of hours I spent creating slideshows over the last 8 years in FCP. I could cry. As a photographer, I'd much rather be spending time shooting than sitting in front of a computer. This program will allow me to do that.
