Every year at our last meeting before Christmas the club has an audio-visual competition. We do not have a judge, but members of the club present vote – it’s a bit of fun.
-
- Audio visual programs are images set to music or with a spoken commentary
- They must be between 3 and 5 minutes
- Video is allowed but must not be more than 10% of the total running time
- As we are a photographic society, the emphasis should be on your own photography. You may use images from other sources as long as they do comprise more than 10%
- Programs should be in mp4 format You may use any software to make your program but it must be finished in one of these two formats
- An easy program to use is Winsoft Pictures to Exe which is on the club laptops. If you need any guidance/help please contact Brian Magor at hoylakeps@gmail.com or talk to him on Friday
- Hand in by December 6th on CD, memory stick or SD card. They need to be tested to check that they run OK.
