Audio Slideshow Analysis #2
I found a good example of an Audio Slideshow with what you don’t want in an Audio Slideshow. This You Look Lonely slide show is just of a still framed photo which is technically an audio slideshow but you want more than just one photo.
For example this video is of one photo from the movie Blade Runner as this is a good movie and they capture a significant scene in it there should be more than just one photo.
Especially when you have such a good movie like this you want more photos from the movie where there are so many impactful moments.
With an audio slideshow you want the pictures to tell a story from themselves how you see the photos and how you feel when you see them. This could be any kind of emotion where it could be sad or happy. The power of a photo is amazing how you could make someone feel a certain way by just showing them a photo.

This is one of the reasons I chose this audio slideshow because when you just have one photo for so long in a three minute video you get bored or you get confused on why someone would do this.
Yes maybe it could be for just a thumbnail for a video but why not put in the extra effort to make it to where you have different shots of different things.
Here is a better example of an audio slideshow: Dragon ball z goku super saiyan 1–100 in this video you see that there are different forms of super saiyan but besides that it is a good audio slide show because of the different transitions to the picture.
As well as the music and the picture correlate together and this is a very nostalgic video because every kid remembers looking up a video like this.
With what I mean is in the early 2000s there were videos like this whit the play station and the iphone as it does seem a little ridiculous these are all audio slideshows that kids used to enjoy.
As the inauguration grew the realization that this would never happen these audio slideshows captured our attention and was a trending topic on youtube at the time. That is what an audio slideshow should do: capture the attention of the audience and make it to where its inviting and telling a story.
