Photo Story 3 is a free programme from Microsoft that is easy to use and enables the users to create personal and artistic slide shows from digital images. From an artists point of view you can also upload your own personal drawings or paintings which then can be edited. You can also crop and rotate images and add soundtracks, original music or narrations to your slideshow using your own voice. One feature I really think is valuable is that you can zoom into a particular spot within an image. I think this is a great feature especially as a teaching aid, for example, you could be very specific about a certain detail within a painting, in an Art history context. Small file sizes also make it easy to send your photo stories in an e-mail and share them. This is something I would definitely like to use in my teaching although I must admit I have not had the time to fully explore this programme.This story below is the one I created in Jan's ITC class.
