A video project by Geoff Taylor for the EVO Video 2007 session, January 2007, an online workshop for using video in EFL/ESL education. This project shows a photo slideshow - a sequence of still photos - with spoken narration and musical accompaniment. It was intended to be viewed by EFL/ESL students, as a demonstration of video slideshow techniques. On reflection, I have realised that the spoken narration accompanying the slideshow is somewhat in the vocal style of the British TV nature documentary presenter, David Attenborough: hushed, respectful, quietly enthusiastic, celebratory Copyright notes: Music: the original version of this project used copyright music "Jerusalem", by Sir Hubert Parry & William Blake, which was more suited to the content of this slideshow, but could not be presented to the group due to copyright infringements. This version uses a musical accompaniment composed and performed by the author. Images: most of the photos were copied from other people's websites, and so may well infringe copyright. Over the last year, I have attempted to duplicate all the photos myself using my digital camera, but haven't yet managed to get all of them, and haven't had time to edit them into another version of this project. In the meantime, here follows the sources of third party photos used. If any copyright holders object, this project will immediately be withdrawn from public display.
