Aspiring documentarists invited to enter the FotoMagico Slideshow Showcase
Final two weeks for creating eye-catching slideshows before the top entries are shared with the world.
The deadline for submitting work in the FotoMagico Slideshow Showcase is Monday, June 15. The showcase, sponsored by Boinx Software and run by The Digital Story, first helps photographers master the art of producing the perfect slideshow. Then, the best of the entries will be showcased to the world on The Digital Story beginning June 27.
"Slideshow software has really evolved, so if you haven't looked at it lately, you should," explains Derrick Story, author of numerous photography books and creator of The Digital Story. "A good example is FotoMagico by Boinx Software. The software lets you produce shows as powerful as some of Ken Burn's earlier work, but with much greater ease."
FotoMagico is available for $79USD, or on The Digital Story site for $69USD (See bottom of page for discount code).
Forms and showcase rules are available at The Digital Story. Entries must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. PDT, Monday June 15 to be eligible for display.
The Digital Story makes photography, music, and filmmaking more enjoyable through its regularly updated, educational blog posts, podcasts, and videos. The site is dedicated to showing visitors simple tips and techniques that help the digital camera become an extension of a person's vision and a tool for expression. The Digital Story can be contacted at questions@thedigitalstory.com.
