Nuntii Latini (Spring) - ENGLISH version

[Delicate]

Hi

I had a try and made a translation of the original Finnish text seen in the show.

You can watch it on Vimeo:

I did not upload the EXE-version on Mediafire because the file size is 135 Mb.

But if you still are interested, please send me a personal mail.

Regards,

In the direction of the Helsinki Camera Club (Kameraseura) in Finland and the 'AV-evening' activity, a task was set to use members creativity to create audiovisual shows with a use of just a limited number of given still pictures.

This small group of pictures (about 110 pcs) was the one to choose from, and the theme for the pictures was 'Spring'.

This project is one result of this task.

The basic idea for my show was 'Nuntii Latini', News in Latin.

With a use of real voices from the Finnish broadcast, I made a 'translation' to Finnish, a translation that 'not exactly corresponded' to the original content. In fact I have to say, that I don't understand a word of Latin...

To people speaking other languages than Finnish I also have to say, that you really need to understand what is written in the show to fully catch the whole idea... Except for those speaking Latin, to whom this might sound like total nonsense.

I choosed to publish my project on Vimeo, and choosed also to use only 720p HD resolution not to 'frighten' those with bad internet connections or slow computers.

In the same time this was a good opportunity to promote making of AV-presentations and with a use of PicturesToExe.

Hi Jan,

This was very funny. For everybody who doesn't know Finnish and saw your original one, take another look at this show now with the translation.

Thanks for showing,

Bert

Jan,

I agree with Bert that this English sub-titled version is even better.

Just wondering why the original exe file is so large at 135 mb.

Thank you Bert and Davy for your nice feedback.

And Davy, I checked again...

Yes you are right, it was the MP4-file (1080p) that was 135Mb in size.

The EXE file is about 91Mb, consisting of 51 pictures (1080p) and the audio file.

Sorry.

Jan,

I would have a 91mb exe file over a mp4-file on Vimeo.

Well that was fun, it's quite amazing what can be produced within the constraints of a fix group of images, its certainly makes people think and create.

Thanks for sharing it.
