Making A Gallery Slideshow

Part of being a Gallery worker is working on the monthly slideshow that’s on display at the front desk.

Starting Your Slideshow

  1. Using Google Slides, think of a theme for the month. Some themes have been: Women Directed Films, Foreign Films, Occult Movies, Animated TV Shows, etc. Just pick a topic to highlight and go from there.
  2. Pick a color theme and font ( we usually Cormorant Garamond for the font).
  3. Start your slideshow with an intro to the Imaging Center: “Presented by The Imaging Center.”
  4. Your next slide should name your theme, to make it pop you can choose to have a solid color fill for the text box.
  5. From there you can start your theme slides, we usually go in intervals of three, three theme slides with a break with an info slide and a repeat of the name theme slide before going back to the themed sides, then repeat.
  6. You can use the Northampton Live website for some local inspiration for an information slide (not all information slides have to do with the Imaging Center).
