Movie Maker Slideshow Class
Yesterday evening I attended a Movie Maker slideshow class at Sydenham Library.
The class went for 2 hours and was instructed by Vi. Vi was a very patient, friendly and professional instructor.
The class covered how to scan photos, slides and negatives, and used the scanned images, along with Windows MovieMaker to create a professional looking slideshow complete with transitions, effects and music which can be played on a DVD player.
From what I learned in the class I plan to create a DVD with all my mothers life photos from child, to current day to make a presentation for her 50th Birthday party.

Welcome to my blog!
Hello and welcome to the first ever post on my blog!
I will be using my blog to document and share my experiences at all of Melbourne's fantastic wineries. I have been into wine tasting for several years now, and my favorites include many of the Browns Brothers varieties.
Browns Brothers varieties include Spartese Lexia, Crouchen Reisling, and Cienena.
All the varieties above are very sweet, non dry varieties, that should be served chilled.
