Telling the story……
Charles Stanley’s new book is titled “I Love To Tell The Story” and it is a marvelous coffee table book of his work. Photography really is all about telling the story, the story you want to tell. For many years I was probably best known as a photographer for showing music/image shows whenever I would go out to speak. I’ve done slide synchs, (that’s what we called them in the old film days), for Fortune Five Hundred Companies, and local photography clubs. It never ceases to amaze me how much people enjoy some images set to the right music. Over the years I’ve worked with a number of production companies to help produce major shows, once using 48 slide projectors!!! It’s been fun and very gratifying to see the reaction of the audience. Now I want to share that fun with others. In February (20-23), Jim Begley and I will teach a small group of students all the ins and outs of planning, and producing a image/music presentation. We will cover the following:
Developing an idea for a image/music show.
Shooting and editing for a image/music show.
Developing mood with the right music.
Construction of the show, dissolve timing, and image placement.
Polishing the production with titles and effects.
How to introduce and present the final product!
Each student at this workshop (limited to 12 people) will produce their own show before the end of the workshop! On Saturday night we will get to see all the shows! One evening all the attendees will be my guest at my home in Corbin, for my famous Pork Bar B Q!!
If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to produce these shows this is your chance! Jim and I will teach how to do them on both the MAC and PC platforms with Pro Show Gold and Keynote.
Be sure and email me at billfortney @earthlink.net if you are interested in joining us. It will beheld in Corbin, KY and the price for the seminar is $499. ( 6 spots remain open. )
Blessings,

Is Charles Stanley a photographer too? I didn’t know that. Or is the book just about his life story.
It’s a portfolio book of some of his best photographic work over his life time.
Pilgrim, it was a very enjoyable weekend at the Wilderness Wildlife Week in Pigeon Forge, your slide show and lecture on Learning to See Photographically was excellent.
