  Content: *When you double-clickthe Photostory icon on your desktop, the following screen is presented: *We are going to begin a new story, so we'll accept the default value and click Next to proceed to the next step. The next screen you see will allow you to import and arrange your photos. 1. Input images into the Photo Story time line The first step in Photostory is to import into the project the images that you will be using.

  Once you clickthe Import Pictures button, you will be presented with a dialogue box where you can select the images you want to use. Navigate to the folder suffrage images: You can select one photo at a time by clicking on the photo to select it, then clicking OK.

  2. Add text to each slide Let start with adding a title to the first photo, the parade of suffragettes: In the text box, type the title. Notice that it appears in black type in the middle of the picture. Not good. Let's fix it. Click on the text button and when the dialogue box opens up, you can change the size, color, and style of the font. Make it large enough for a title (suggest 18), choose a color that will contrast sufficiently with the black and white of the photo (suggest yellow) and choose a font style (your choice!) that pleases you: When you have made your selections, click OK and they will be applied. Looks better, but still not great. The title is still sitting in the middle of the picture. Let's move it up so that it won't obscure the view. Click the top vertical alignment button: (the first one) and the title will move up to the top.

  3. Add audio narration When it's time to record your narration, plug in the headset and microphone to the jacks on your computer. If you are in the LRC, be sure the button on the headset is set to record. Then, when you are ready to begin, take a look at the three buttons at your disposal: To begin recording, press Record. When you reach the end of the narration for the first slide, press Stop. If you want to test it out (and I urge you to do so!), click the Preview button to listen to what you've got. If you're not satisfied, click the Delete button and try again. When you are satisfied with the narration for the first slide, select the second slide and repeat the process. Continue until you have recorded the narration for all nine slides. You can record up to a maximum of five minutes per slide.

  4. Add music narration The starting point for adding music: Notice that you have two options for music: you can either select music that you have already downloaded to your computer, or you can create music from selections provided by Photo Story. We're going to use the Create Music option for our story. To begin, select the first image where you want the music to begin playing. For our story, we want the music to start when the first image is displayed, so we'll select the first image (click once on it to select it) and then click the Create Music button. From here you will make your choices:

  Select the genre,style, band, mood, tempo and intensity that suit your piece. To test out your choices, press Play. When you're satisfied with your choices, press OK. Once you press OK, the music is added to your piece and is shown by a bar above the image timeline. This is a good time to preview your project. Be sure the first slide is selected so it will play from the beginning, then click the Preview button and watch the show. If you decide you don't like your music choice after all, just click the Delete Music button and start over selecting music for your piece. 6. Save the digital story into the appropriate format on a web browser Photo Story provides a Save Project button at the bottom of every page. Use it!! I recommend that before you ever press the Next button on any page, you hit Save Project first. And when you're editing photos, hit the Save Project button after every edit!! You can't use this button too often. When you save your project, Photo Story creates a .wp3 file. This is the project file that you will want to re-open for future edits.
