Photo Story 3 (free download)
Do you want to share or create a story? Do you want to share curricular information?
You can do both with this program.
You can take your own digital photos or download images from the web. You can also
use clipart or your own drawings. Here are some free sites: (Many sites require images
to be credited.)

Photos have to be downloaded from your computer. Simply click on the “Import
Pictures” box to access your images.
Once you access your photos, double-click on them to insert them into the program. You
can download them one at a time or all at once.
If you wish to change the order of your photos, you can achieve this by simply dragging
the images from one place to another or clicking on the arrow. To delete a picture, click
on the X.
You can change the position of the rectangle by dragging it. Once you have the correct
position, click the “Yes” box. If you click the “Yes to all” box, it will automatically
remove borders from all of your images.
You can rotate and/or crop your image by clicking on them. After you click on “Crop,”
you can drag the rectangle to determine the cropping of your picture.
To fix color levels or red-eye, click on “Auto Fix” and make your choices.
Choose the effect you want, and if you want that effect for all of your images, click the
box.
When your editing is complete, click on the “Save” button, then “Close.”
7. Adding a title.
You can figure out the narration and picture sequence beforehand by creating a
storyboard. This website has the template to get you started:

Use music and sound effects to enhance your Photo Story. Included with the program are
musical properties that allow you to customize music for your project. You can also use
your own music, or you can find free music and sound files online. Here’s a couple to
get you started.

If you want to import your own music files, click on “Select Music.” This will enable
you to access your music files.
Choose the slide on which you want the music to start. Once you find the music you
want to use, double-click on it to insert it. You will see it above your slides.
If you want to change the music for a slide, click on the slide, then “Select Music” again.
The music will be added and will continue until you select another slide to change the
music. You can have one piece of music for the entire project, or each image can have its
own music.
Select a save option, (most likely, you’ll want to save it on your computer.) Specify the
location, and then click on “Save Project.” A screen will pop up.
Select “Save.”
Click on “Next.”
Once your story is saved, you may view it, or create another one.
