[DM-MUG] Topic of Meeting

[John Kisner]

I have a topic idea.  But I am not an ideal candidate to lead the  
meeting (as we shall see).

I'm making a slide show for the 6th Grade class at Clive Elementary.   
I did this 2 years ago, which is when I learned how to scan in  
prints, use Keynote (after first deciding PowerPoint crashed too much  
when the show got too large), add music, and then export the finished  
product as a QuickTime movie.

I'm at the point in the current project where I have scanned in most  
of the photos, but haven't even started any basic layout or anything  
in Keynote.  It might be instructive to go through several things:

1. How to organize a growing photo library (keywords, albums, etc.)

2. How to get a slide show up and running.

3.  How to add music (including maybe "cutting" songs to fit).

Like I said, I don't really have any insights to share, especially  
with Keynote 3 on short notice, but have the raw materials for a real- 
world project that is similar to what people do with vacation photos  
and family albums if someone else would like to bring order to my chaos.
