Happy New Year Slideshow Tips

Short on cool ideas for your slideshow? Need some tips? Here are some for you:

  • Retrospective. Show only the best moments from the passing year. Don’t just grab all the photos, instead, pick them carefully. Select 50 or 100 pics that will build a certain narrative throughout your video

  • Film it. Record a few videos with your friends or family members wishing something great for everyone. Scatter these greetings here and there. They will shine like little diamonds among regular slides.

  • Where is the beat. Don’t forget about music. It’s one of the most important mood makers in your 3D video. Look for some cool New Year songs that could complement your slideshow.

  • Pinch of magic. Don't be afraid and let yourself experiment with different features. Try creating custom animations or adding a video background to your picture collage.

Now you are ready to create a New Year 2025 slideshow. Follow the steps described above and you’ll finish your video in no time at all! Interested in making videos for Christmas sermons and worship? Check out church slideshow software then. It will definitely make the creation process much easier.
