Thanks for this, and for providing the software that you used. I have explored the AI site and will play with it some more. It has produced some exciting creations from old family photos. Kieron

When I have had issues with panels not closing in other software, (Photoshop comes to mind) I will reload it and restart Windows. If that does not work, I will remove the software, download the latest version, and restart everything. Kieron

Excellent work Barry! I have watched it several times. The great choice of music works well with the pace of the show. The transitions are creative, as well as the changes in colours. A lot of time and imagination went into this, and your dedication to perfection shows in the final product. Kieron

Very enjoyable, you put a lot of time and effort into this, and the final result was well worth it. I did not realize that the straight cuts from video to video work so well. Thanks for posting, Kieron

As you move it it shows what is under it. Grab the yellow image and move it around. Play around with objects and animation. Look at the cutout image in the folder in your editing program, it is a PNG file, and that is what will be on top. The image with no cutout is placed on the bottom with the yellow image in between.

Enjoyed the various portraits. I hope we get to see more. Kieron

I always use a PNG overlay that has the route cutout with the eraser tool. In between the two layers in PTE you put a solid image with your desired colour and move it at the speed you want. I have enclosed an example. Kieron Route demo_Jan5-2025_15-52-27.zip

Hello Alex, All the best to you and your family over the festive season. Looking forward to seeing more of your talent in 2025. Kieron

It would be impossible to find a comparable product with support from the developer at $23.00. To me, it is a bargain not to be missed. Kieron

Hello Tom, I found this very interesting and did some research to enlighten me further. I do a lot of video shows with PTE using a Windows laptop and a projector in large venues. The laptop although only a 15 in version can be a problem for space and heat issues. I also use an external keyboard with Bluetooth so I can move about. The laptop has 16 gb ram and a decent video card. The videos run smoothly. I like the size of 5 inches, as it would not take up much space. I might consider using something like this as the laptop gets older. Do you think this may be an alternative? Take care, Kieron

I am curious about what settings Igor used in his demonstration of image stabilization. Not sure about the expand option. Thanks, Kieron

This is perfect for my needs with PTE. Early experimenting with the program it functions well. Count me in as an early adopter. Kieron

Wonderful photography, aided by the music and transitions. I agree with digartal and find the blinking sign very intriguing. Kieron

1. Settings-Preferences-Timeline-Audio Track Height can be adjusted in percent. 2. Use control plus shift plus mouse wheel when in the timeline view.

Yes, I overcomplicate things Dave. I will just follow your suggestion. Thanks, Kieron

I have a question about scrolling text. I am using animation smooth. I was wondering how to slow down the middle portion. The start and end are perfect. I have played around a little with the boxes for Acceleration time etc. but do not fully understand how to apply them, and if I experiment the system crashes. Kieron

I have watched it several times and can not fathom the amount of work you put into this. It puts you on another level of imagination, dedication, and quality, that children and their parents will love. Well done!! Kieron

Thanks for sharing your expertise. It is always filled with new ideas. Kieron

A big congratulations to Igor and the team. A wonderful product. Looking forward to the next version. Kieron

Is there any chance this may be implemented in version 12? I am working on projects where this would be very useful. Kieron

I am curious if the projected patterns spill onto the background, or is there a technique that allows them to just show on the subject? This would be an exciting production to see. Thanks for showing it, Kieron

Thanks for sharing, and providing inspiration Alex. Kieron

Excellent as always, Kieron
