How to make a photo slideshow cut to music
Upload your photos and the music to Vizard Agent and say how they should run. It builds a collage of everything you sent and looks at it to work out what each picture actually shows, then cuts them to the track in the order and at the timing you specified.
What do you type into Vizard Agent?
State the sequence in the order you want to see it. This is one of the few formats where a precise instruction beats a descriptive one, because "make it nice" leaves Vizard Agent to guess at an ordering that only makes sense to you. Upload the track rather than describing it, so the cuts land on the real beats.
Prompt
What does Vizard Agent actually do?
The first half of the work is identification. A set of pictures can't be sequenced meaningfully until Vizard Agent knows what each one shows, and filenames tell it nothing useful, so it reads your pictures rather than counting them. In the session behind this article it:
- Downloaded the attached photos, video and audio together and analysed the parameters of each.
- Built a collage of the images so they could be viewed as a set, then looked at it to work out what each picture contained.
- Looked at the collage a second time, because a first pass over a large set doesn't settle everything.
- Extracted frames from the video files and looked at the logo animation and a poll image separately, since they were different kinds of asset.
- Delivered 35.71 seconds at 1080x1920, cut to the uploaded track with the pictures holding at the timing requested.
When does this not work well?
The ordering is a judgement about what the pictures mean to you, and Vizard Agent can only handle that as well as you describe it. It doesn't know who matters, so say which people or moments must be in it. Decide whether wide photos in a vertical video are letterboxed or cropped, and expect low-resolution photos to show.
Common questions
Do I need to rename or sort the photos first? No. Vizard Agent looks at them and works out what each one shows.
Can I mix photos and video clips? Yes. Upload everything together and Vizard Agent sequences them as one set.
Will it cut on the beat? Yes, unless you give a fixed timing instruction, in which case Vizard Agent follows what you asked for.
