I have been
flood out the past few days with Photography and
Aperture 3 workshops at the Power Mac Center at
Greenbelt 3 Makati. Tomorrow I have another session
the whole day at the University of the Philippines
Diliman sponsored by Power Mac Center Educational
Division, all this prior my departure for the US on
Tuesday.
But I promised on my last post that I share with you
yet another cool Multimedia Demo/Presentation and
here it is, "Mystical
Asia" a 2.56
min. QT file, using Photos from Thailand, Cambodia,
Laos, Burma (Myanmar) Nepal and Tibet.
I finished this demo only a few days ago, amazing
stuff you can create using a MacBook Pro and of
course the cool Aperture 3 slideshow with GarageBand
and my new "Girlfriend called Motion" from Final Cut
Studio.
Endless possibilities...with a touch of Motion your
Multimedia demos or presentations can look so
different and really come alive.
Now sit back and enjoy "Mystical
Asia".
Please
note the video is best viewed using your
Safari
Browser we experienced recently that in
Firefox some script codes appear underneath the QT
window, the video will still play correctly but it
looks a bit strange.
Hopefully this issue is disappear soon.

Exploring Mystical Cambodia, Multimedia presentation using Aperture 3, Motion & GarageBand
QT 1:46 min.
Mystical
Cambodia is a Journey into the past...created for my
GD Photo Workshops and my love for Cambodia.
Produced with Aperture 3, Motion from Final Cut
Studio and GarageBand. The short Video clip at the
end was taken with a Nikon D300s long after sunset
with very little light left. I created the soundtrack
for this project entirely in GarageBand which took
about 20 min.
You might noticed that I am using Aperture 3
slideshows with Motion lately, it is just an awesome
combination for Multimedia presentations, tutorials
or just for fun.

Photography & Environment: WATER...no life with out it, 40 sec. clip using Aperture 3, Motion & GarageBand
"WATER" QT 00:40 sec.
No life without it!
The Idea about this
short environmental clip came from my last trip to
Palawan, when the first rain and the Monsoon arrived
for this season.
Running around in the rain at
El Rio y Mar
capturing the
freshness of the vegetation around me, I decided
later to put a few images together to create this
clip called "WATER" using the Aperture 3
slideshow, Motion & GarageBand.
The actual rain sound was recorded on location with
my Nikon D300s and mixed together with another
soundtrack in GarageBand.
Motion and final assembly: In this case I used a
template from Motion modified it and added the rain
drop images.
(two images one with the drop and one without it)
After this was done I imported the Motion Clip and
soundtrack into Aperture 3, added text plus photos...
export and it was done.

A blast from the past...an Australian Calendar. Using Aperture 3 slide show, Motion & GarageBand an awesome combination…
QT 1:05 min.
A
little
spring-clean the other day revealed an old treasure
from some 24 years ago.
Securely tucked away I spotted this old Calendar,
which I produced many moons ago for the Northern
Territory Tourist Commission in Australia. (the
Calendar was a bit creased and crinkled but ok
otherwise)
Wow …memories starting to buzz in my head… oh boy, do
I remember this one!
24 years later…technology brings an old project back
to life; sometimes it is nice to go back in time.
“This is like a 25 year anniversary for me since the
project started in 1985.”
To cut a long story short we did some reproduction of
this long forgotten marvel and after some cropping
and adjusting the pages were ready for an update.
I used Aperture 3.0.3 for the editing and the final
slide show, Motion from Final Cut Studio for the
intro, and the Soundtrack I created again in
GarageBand.
In the good old days we had no computers, everything
was shot on Kodachrome 25 ASA with the exception of
the moon, and in two other layouts I added the clouds
manually via duplicating the film, adding the
elements.
All Photos taken on locations in the Northern
Territory of Australia…with some places extremely
remote and difficult to reach.
At Ayers Rock we used an old fashion pushbike that we
had repainted and restored, at the Olga’s the
parachute setup looked simple, but the Girl almost
drifted away as the wind picked up.
On the first day at Rainbow Valley the Camels didn’t
arrive on time, so we had to come back the next day
and get the Job done. The dresses for the girls (BTW
Identical Twins) in this shot had been specially
designed and tailored for this setup.

Devils Marbles…setting up a Hang Glider on these two
Rocks proved to be dangerous and a real challenge,
crossing our fingers that no wind gust blowing the
hang glider of the rocks including our model. To top
it off, the ladders we used to get everything on top
of these two balancing rocks where about 2 feet to
short; solving these problems on location can be
quiet a challenge in the outback miles from nowhere.
Then to Palm Valley… the track to Palm Valley is only
accessible with a 4WD vehicle, following the usually
dry bed of the Finke River. Within the Finke Gorge
National Park, is an east-west running valley in the
Krichauff Range 123 km (138 km by road) southwest of
Alice Springs.
Kings Canyon… a tough climb and a long walk, Kings
Canyon is part of the Watarrka National Park in
Northern Territory, Australia. Sitting at the western
end of the George Gill Range, it is 323 km southwest
of Alice Springs and 1,316 km south of Darwin.
Kakadu National Park… getting the Girls into the
Kayak at Yellow Waters proved to be exciting but also
very stressful, there are plenty of very large
Saltwater Crocodiles around. My assistant kept a
lookout with binoculars just in case, of course we
had a larger boat right next to the Kayak where I was
shooting.
BTW…the original color of the Kayak was white, I had
it re-painted in red just for this shot.
Another cool location was Katherine Gorge, walking
for hours to get to the 7th Gorge. Katherine Gorge is
not just one spectacular Gorge but a series of 13
gorges along the Katherine River.
At Fog Dam we transported a complete dinning set into
the swamp, another extreme, timing was of the essence
here. I also flew in an Aboriginal friend of mine
from the island of Bathurst just of the coast of
Darwin, and the fish for dinner…that is another
story.
The Gove Peninsula was some how difficult, far away
at the top end of the Northern Territory, but luck
was on our side. A Coast Guard Plane was parked at
the airport so
I ask the pilot if he could do a few fly over for
us…. which he did.
At the Arnhem Land Escarpment and Twin Falls we used
Helicopters due to their remoteness. Getting into the
Twin falls proved even difficult by Chopper, bringing
the Crew down one by one.
More or less that was it…of course I had a small but
very efficient crew; all the Girls locals from the
Northern Territory were absolutely great and
comfortable in the Australian Outback. Shooting over
four-month off and on, covering some enormous
distances.
These were the days of film…no computers existed with
Photoshop, but then that was the challenge…would I do
it again? Of course… any time.

Incorporating Motion from Final Cut
Studio into an Aperture 3 Slide Show is giving us
some cool possibilities. I created the Motion Clips
with Motion which is part of Final Cut Studio, very
nice as an intro and finish for your Aperture Slide
shows.
The sound (2 separate tracks) I previously created in
GarageBand and had them in my iTunes Library.
Like with everything else on a Mac a perfect
integration, when open Motion I had access to all my
Photos in my Aperture 3.0.3 Library and could have
also used my soundtracks, but in this exercise I
added the sound later in Aperture 3.0.3
It was real fun messing around with Motion and
creating this short demo, with endless possibilities
at your fingertips you can produce a nice and cool
looking Multi Media show using Aperture 3, Motion and
GarageBand.

Pls. Note: Color might vary at different
Screens.
I
had a little time on my
hands today plus I was in the right mood...so I
created this short Slide show presentation in
Aperture 3.0.3 using a Video Clip which I had
prepared previously and using three different
soundtracks.
Everything worked flawless and I encountered no
problems at all...as a matter of fact it was pretty
straight forward and easy.
I like the Share or Export options in Aperture 3, you
can send it almost anywhere never leaving Aperture 3,
this is only a short clip but the possibilities are
there.
I created the sound tracks (3 different ones) in
GarageBand some time ago and had them handy in my
iTunes Library.
The Globe at the beginning of the slide show (Movie
.mov) I made last week, the original lengths had been
some 2.5 minutes. I just dragged the .mov file into
my slideshow trimmed it down with the Movie setting
in Aperture 3 to approx. 37 sec.added text, images
and the three soundtracks...then hit Export and I was
done.
This coming week (on Friday the 7th) we have an
Aperture 3 launch at the Power Mac
Center in
TriNoma where you can see the same presentation in
high resolution on a large screen. There will also be
an introduction to Aperture 3 Q & A plus Raffle

Messing around with new software, GarageBand & the Nikon D300s mixing Images & Video for presentations.
“My Photo
Gallery” the Prototype...
© Gunther Deichmann
- “My Cambodian Gallery” 1.36 min QT Prototype only.
Broadband recommended 13.2MB
During my last
trip in Cambodia I used the new Nikon D300s
a lot (I might add for
the first time) but had very little time to test the
Video function on the D300s (a lot more when I get
back from Nepal/India in March)
All image editing was done with Aperture
2.1.4
and the video was very
quickly edited using the new Quick Time on Snow
Leopard which is fast and so easy to use.
I managed to get a bit of Video footage, nothing
special but easily applied in a presentation like
this. Of course the music was created in GarageBand
before and I pulled this track from my archives.
In due time and when I get back from India I put up a
nice mix with stills and Video. Having the ability
now to create presentations where we can use stills
and video combined is just so nice and cool.
I hope you like this small and first demo...the
adventure only started.

Journey Through Color & Sounds…India ”cooking” with Aperture 2, GarageBand, iPhone & FotoMagico 3 Pro
I was in
the mood last night… for "cooking,"
using only a few ingredients to create a nice
meal.

Check out the final meal in YouTube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBdyMR8fq0s&feature=channel
Recipe & Ingredients

Main Ingredients; the Images from India &
original audio recording.
MacBook Pro
iPhone with iTalk app. installed
Aperture 2 ( 2.1.4)
GarageBand from iLife ’09
FotoMagico 3 Pro (Version 3.0.8)
Good Internet connection
Just follow these simple steps…after editing the
images in Aperture 2
make sure you
filed them in their Albums or Smart Albums for
easy access in FotoMagico later via the nice build
in Media Browser.
Like with any good cooking it is important you have
everything well prepared before you start.
I prepared the soundtrack earlier in GarageBand using
the original recorded audio on my iPhone from India,
mixing it plus adding some instruments. I use
iTalk together with iTalk
Sync from Griffin an excellent
application for the iPhone.
You record with iTalk and later transfer the audio
file wireless to your Mac with the installed iTalk
Sync. Now you can use the audio file in iTunes or
modify it in GarageBand like I have done, mix it up a
bit…and bingo! This way you created an original sound
track for your presentation or in this case for our
FotoMagico slide show.
Pls. Note: I only use my own compositions or paid
audio, this is more original and you don’t have to
worry about any Copyright infringements.

Lets open FotoMagico…you don’t have to be a Rocket
scientist or a famous Chef to do some great cooking
in FotoMagico as I explained in my previous post.
Everything is connected… great integration with the
Mac…& yes it runs well on Snow Leopard too (I
discovered no glitches in FotoMagico 3.0.8 Pro)
Open your Media Browser in FM and select Photos, you
have all your iPhoto and Aperture Libraries right
here. Of course you have also access the same way to
your iTunes Libraries, GarageBand and Videos, yes
videos… with FotoMagico 3 Pro you can also include
your film clips and mix them up with your still
images.
Now you select the images you like and drag them on
the time line, move them around the way you see fit,
add pan or zoom to each or all, set the timing and
pick your transitions.
It is a good Idea to add some black frames at the
start and finish like I have done to include some
text/information; again FM makes this very easy. Text
can also be applied to run over the images, options
for different Fonts, sizes and colors are all there,
plus so much more.
Once you happy with the flow of your images open the
Media Browser again and pick your Music, select the
track you like and drag it on the audio time line. It
is a good Idea to determine before you start the
approx lengths of your show. You can also adjust the
soundtrack by moving it into the right position
Options for voice over and additional audio tracks
are available, but we keep it simple today…I created
the basic Journey Through Colors & Sound
slideshow in about an hour of course not including
the editing in Aperture 2 and mixing the audio in
GarageBand.

One last check in the Preview before you share your
show via YouTube or all the other options including a
HD presentation direct from your Laptop.
If you export direct to YouTube like in my case, make
sure you have an account or create one before, the
rest is fully automatic but could take some time
depending on the lengths of your show and of course
your connection speed.
We finished our cooking for today now lets serve a
good meal to our friends or clients…believe
me, FotoMagico 3 Pro
made cooking
very easy & tasty…Enjoy your meal.

FotoMagico a few times in my previous Blog post's,
but the latest FotoMagico 3 Version 3.0.8 is so cool
and for those of you who are not familiar with it I
can highly recommend it.
I also introduced it to my students recently in
Cambodia and they fell in love with it.
An excellent software easy to use with superb
quality, you have all the settings you ever going to
need for producing high end slide shows/presentations

iLife '09 and GarageBand: Lets play some Blues... cool Music made easy for your Presentations and Podcast
A very short
introduction into the new GarageBand in iLife ’09...
a little bit of Blues,
“When
I wake up in the morning”
It
is the weekend again, so why dont we take some time
and compose some cool Music with the new
GarageBand.
The new and improved interface of GarageBand is just
so very cool with endless possibilities, and once you
have added some Jam Packs to it you be amazed what
you can create if you’re a musician or not...but it
helps if you like or like me love music.
Click
on the title:
When I wake up in
the Morning
1:50 min.
Start with Magic
GarageBand first, familiarize yourself and
later get more adventures and explore all the other
possibilities, the trick is to work in the beginning
with Magic GarageBand, from the menu choose
Magic
GarageBand and
move the various instruments around until you’re
happy with the overall sound. After that
click
on Open in
GarageBand, now you have your instrument tracks in
front of you and the real editing and mixing can
start.
Add some Voices, Guitars, Effects (there is so much
to choose from) or what ever you feel like, split and
separate the tracks and move them around until you
have a nice and now very different sound track. Send
it to iTunes and you’re done, well almost... dont be
shy,you do have to spend some time and experiment
with GarageBand and if you love Music it is a lot of
fun too.
“When
I wake up in the morning” was created entirely in GarageBand.
I know it is not Tina Turner but not bad for someone
who cant even play an instrument or knows anything
about musical notes.
Now turn up your
speakers...

GarageBand Screen shot, start with Magic
GarageBand red square
and have some fun.
Please note:
I
recommend when running Garageband to turn off all
other Applications, Garageband does require a bit of
processing power, but on a MacBook Pro you should
have no problems at all. Also dont run to many tracks
once you left Magic GarageBand and you’re in the
editing phase. I know it is tempting to keep adding
tracks but be careful it my slow down your Machine.

Where was Eric Clapton...a Guitar line up at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Manila "Elevator Blues" plus the new GarageBand'09

“Elevator
Blues”
But where is Eric Clapton? Guitars out side the Lift
at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in
Manila
It was during
a Coffee Break that my good friend Arnold and myself
stepped out of the Lift and almost fell over this
cool line up of Guitars. “Arnold...the only thing
missing is Eric Clapton,” as it turned out there was
a major rock secession in progress in one of the
Ballrooms, sorry folks no Clapton, John Mayall or
even Bob Marley otherwise I would have not gone back
to my meeting.
This strange scene reminded me of a song by Ten Years
After...
”The Band
with no Name”
I could not resist and pulled out my constant
companion the little Leica D-Lux4 and shot some
frames, remember in one of my earlier Blogs never
leave Home without it, (the camera that is) even when
you have to attend a meeting you never know what is
around the next corner or outside an Elevator in this
case.
This
image triggered todays blog and a very short
introduction to the new GarageBand ’09, now you might
ask what has that to do with Photography or
Aperture
2?
Actually a lot!
Let me use the magic word again
Total Integration even with
music...create your own sound easy and feel good
about it that it is yours and has not been copied
from someone else. GarageBand is perfect for your
Slideshows, Keynote presentation and of course your
very own Podcast, the Media Browser is always right
there.

The
New look when you open GarageBand
‘09
I like the
revised and new interface a lot, simple and clean and
for those who like to learn an instrument
GarageBand’09 has now some very cool tutorials
guiding you step by step through the learning process
for Piano or Guitar.

GarageBand’09
and the Media Browser right at your
fingertips
Check out the
new GarageBand ’09 play some Guitar tunes and create
your very own music for all your presentations,
GarageBand’09 is super cool and a big improvement
from its previous versions. GarageBand’09 is part of
iLife ’09 which also includes iPhoto, iDVD, iWeb and
the cool new iMovie.

some patience some of the Clips could take several
minutes to download, of course this depends on
your connection.
The video has been compressed to fit within the web
standards, but Broadband/DSL connection is
recommended.
Aperture 2 and GarageBand check out the Mac integration and have fun with the Podcast… assemble your Soundtracks in GarageBand...
Create YOUR own
Music and SOUNDTRACKS in advance for your
Slide Presentations & have fun doing it...
Whenever
I get the chance I open GarageBand and create my own
music tracks they come in very handy when putting
together slide shows or presentations later.
I have included a small soundtrack PODCAST below
which was created using GarageBand only .
I usually do this late at night or early in the
morning; I can concentrate and don’t get disturbed by
phone calls and other noise.
The integration on the Mac makes all of this very
straightforward and you don’t have to be a musician,
as long you have a good feel for music and a little
patience.
I love creating soundtracks in GarageBand with thousands of
loops to choose from plus the option to purchase a
variety of Jam Packs. A word of caution, the
Jam Packs do take
up some hard drive space.
Creativity is un-limited, it is all up to you, use
the existing Jingles and sound tracks or create an
entire music track from scratch, there are so many
possibilities.
Experiment with GarageBand, you soon find out
its enormous capabilities, besides it is a lot of
fun.
As mention above Aperture 2 is at your
fingertips and of course you have access via the
Media Browser to
iPhoto, iTunes &
iMovie as well. I have a whole collection of
sound tracks tucked away in my iTunes Library just
for the occasion when I need to put together a
presentation in a hurry, creating your own sound is
not only fun but you have something you made and this
will set you apart from all the others.
