Article: [senit] Switch access to music and video

It's very easy to do just that using MS Photostory.
Instructions on how to do this can be found on the Priory Woods web site
here

ids.htm

Drop me an email off list and I will send you some example files to get
you going.

Best Wishes

the advantage of Sally's powerpoint template for
switch videos , and extending it to incorporate a
larger number of photos is that the photos can be made
to animate throughout the playing of the sound clip.
When making a similar activity in switchit maker 2 the
photo animates during the transition which seems short
then the photo remains stationary until the end of the
music clip. Is there a way of getting the photo to
animate throughout a 30 second clip in switchit
maker2?
thanks David
