Create moving slideshows and animations
Although photo software such as iPhoto and Picasa have made making photo slideshows much easier, they're not dedicated tools for the task. Neither handle videos well either when it comes to slideshows and presentations.
PulpMotion however does and allows you to create professional looking and engaging photo-video slideshows that will breathe new life into any photo and video collection. PulpMotion does a lot of the hard work for you by including a number of visual themes with which to work with. Your own media is organized down the right side of the interface and the timeline runs along the bottom very much like a video editor.
To create your own animations, simply drag and drop elements onto the main interface in the same way as you would in iMovie. When you're ready, you need to export it and PulpMotion provides options to do so via Mail, exporting to QuickTime, publishing to a website using iWeb, uploading it onto an iPhone or even creating a personal screensaver with it. Alternatively, you can publish it as a standalone media player that anyone should be able to watch on their machine.
The great thing about PulpMotion is that it does a lot of the hard work for you by providing some impressive themes, automatically syncing music. pacing the presentation etc. The interface tries to pack a lot in meaning it does feel a bit cluttered at times but this is a minor drawback on what otherwise is an excellent application.
Overall though, PulpMotion is an excellent multimedia presentation tool that will make your multimedia shows very impressive.

didnt do voice over, never got support requested, ignored refund request.
I thought it would solve my problems, at least the way it was advertised. However it didn't. I wanted to create a video that I could post on my website for clients, patients and investors to review. If I tried to do a voiceover and have the slide, graphics, or image stay on the screen for the same duration that I was talking the very limited documentation indicated that this would be possible. However after wasting more than two hours trying to get it to work I remain unsuccessful. Then when I requested support, I never received it I did receive a email from their United States office and individual stated that the ticket had been ' picked up'--- I assumed that I would get support in the short course. It never came. Despite several emails to either request resolution or refund. They have been silent over the last month. I had even upgraded to the more expensive advanced version, version 3ADV.
Of the following reasons I would highly avoid this product: is a French company that offers no support, there is no phone number to contact them for service or problems, the product didn't work, they did not provide a refund. I will be filing a legal action to request my refund.
I would suggest a Mac workaround using Keynote and then do your voiceovers in GarageBand including being able to add effects and then export it to QuickTime. this work very well and flawlessly. I would rate this product 0 out of 5
Pros:
nothing, did not work as it was advertised or demo-ed
Cons:
no support, non-US company, need way to actually contact a human More
