Music for uw photopresentations?

[ScubaJorgen]

Hi

I am taking uw pictures for a few years now. I usually to make a photopresentation once a year with the result, using Photodex ProwShow. See my site, topic: 'slide shows'.

Finding the right music gives me big trouble. Music is important and greatly adds to the atmosphere. I am used to browse sites like freeplaymusic.com or allofmp3.com. First of all the music must be longer than the average 2-3 minutes. 7-8 comes closer. Second it should be instrumental (voices distract). And it should match the photos in style (e.g. ambient)

I am curious if any of you make presentations with music and, of course, what music do you use.

Hi Jorgen:

I put quite a few clips together for presentations. One that has gotten the most laughs is a shark dive in French Polynesia: http://www.e-clements.com/Pictures/French_Polynesia_Dive.wmv . I try to match the music with the program: everything from classical to jazz to rock.

Two artists I am currently using are Johnny A [ Johnny A. | Music ] and Rodrigo y Gabriella [ Rodrigo Y Gabriela ]. Both of these artists will keep audiences awake!

Cheers,

listen to a band called The Album Leaf. Good instrumental music.

Why not use G.F.Handel's Water music suite.

This isn't an instrumental band but it is an amazing song for an underwater photo show. Its called Breathe by Keller Williams and the String Cheese Incident. Also if you are mixing above water and below water shots I really like Ziggy Marley's Good ol Days, very islandy feel if the pictures are from the islands. I agree with Rodrigo y Gabriela they are a great band. Bela Fleck and the Flectones is an instrumental band that you might be able to find some good songs from.
