I looked at the slideshow as someone who would be browsing by a booth - while I like your before and afters on the blog, I didn't pay much attention to that on the slideshow. Rather, especially at the speed it moved, I looked for a quality that I liked. I think the speed of the slideshow is actually pretty good, and the music flows with it perfectly. Those that see something they like, will definitly stop and look for more information. All in all, a keeper!Hoopensnooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07860888198731262311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-471159794854482805.post-68053417078308506532010-03-04T09:06:08.192-05:002010-03-04T09:06:08.192-05:00That was really, really awesome.

I love the phrases you added--maybe even some more--ones that would make a potential client say "yeah, I want that" or better "I need that" Like your phrase about family photos!!! I use a book called "Ultimate guide to the perfect Word" for some of my blog titles--maybe a book like that could help you come up with more cool phrases. Your before and afters are amazing!!! It makes me want to play in Photoshop more!! I love how close you crop!!cynthia gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17296409946257346907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-471159794854482805.post-3492759483064419982010-03-03T19:25:44.538-05:002010-03-03T19:25:44.538-05:00Oh and please don't stop doing before and afte...Oh and please don't stop doing before and afters here!

I don't think people that are not into photography and photoshop would really appreciate what it is you are trying to show. <br />I think you are trying to get people to book sessions with you right? If that is the case then I wouldn't show the before shots either. Because just like she said if you walk in on it in the middle and don't see that first slide about before and after you might be a little confused and not want to book the session for pictures that look like the before pictures. <br />But I liked the slides that say "don't say cheese" and "how long has it been since you had a family picture" I think do more stuff like that with just the after pictures.Sarah Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07889848699853477686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-471159794854482805.post-74023206692769936662010-03-03T17:10:22.995-05:002010-03-03T17:10:22.995-05:00I liked it.

I did think the photos were going by a bit fast and by the end of the video the music was starting to get to me a little bit but I think on a big screen at a tradeshow, it would grab my attention. Good job with that! I love your processing by the way - great shots :)Tikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08903599156785259092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-471159794854482805.post-74184676543538980332010-03-03T17:09:57.143-05:002010-03-03T17:09:57.143-05:00Laura~

Because you aren't necessarily going to have people see the beginning of the slide show to realize they are before and afters, people might think half your shots are not that special. What if someone is walking by your booth and they see just one photo from your slide show and it is a before? Is that going to make them want to come back and see more. <br /><br />If you are selling a class to learn how to take your befores and turn them into afters, then I think the before after slideshow is a great idea. <br /><br />I hope I don't sound mean... I am just being totally honest with you.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699928765662735006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-471159794854482805.post-24368268093133188362010-03-03T15:25:04.699-05:002010-03-03T15:25:04.699-05:00I think the music is edgy, and matches the video p...I think the music is edgy, and matches the video presentation perfectly!

I looked back through the tradeshow comments and YES candy is must and some sort of give-a-way. I work for a company that participates in trade shows for teachers and they always stop at our booth for candy. That's how we reel them in.Donnahttp://www.holzerian.com/dblognoreply@blogger.com
