More Information

Another Age Audio Visual

This video came about after we created a slide show called Another Age and had a number of people ask us how that slide show was created. You can download that slide show from the link above and you will see that it contains a number of montage images in an almost constant flow from image to image. Please note that this slide show has been optimized for screen resolutions of 1280*1024.

You can see the images we started with below

 

The technique almost has two parts to it, firstly creating the montage and then using the layers from that montage to create the images for our creative slide show. In this 28 minute video we demonstrate how to create a montage using a number of different images. We can often make a great montage by amalgamating 4-5 images that is far stronger and has more impact and charm than any of the individual pictures.

Critical sharpness is not always such an issue, so images can be used here that would not see the light of day elsewhere. We use layers, layer masks and demonstrate how easy it is to create a multi-layer montage image. Of course Photoshop Elements doesn't have layer masks, but we also show you a way to create them. We can make Elements think it is Photoshop.

Finally we show how the different parts of the montage can be saved as separate layers in preparation for a creative slide show. Then we take you into PicturesToExe 5 and create a short demo slide show using the images we created during the recording of the video.
