    • This creates a png image from each slide
  • Start kino and read in the movie

    • Method 1: create a movie clip out of a slide
      • create transitions between slide clips
    • Method 2: embed the slide into a corner of the movie
      • use Video Transition | ImageMagick Overlay
    • Method 3: write the slide text as a subtitle in the movie
Method 1: create a movie clip out of a slide
  • FX | Create | from file (say file 10) | 300 frames |  Preview | Render

Start with the last image and count down -- that way they end up in sequence.
