Positives and negatives of narrated slideshows

YAY
+ can analyse pictures better
+ saves placing all photos within the text
+ can add to and develop a story
+ especially good for showcasing pictures (especially see BBC In Pictures)
+ can click and just sit back (requires little effort-in contrast to effortlessly pressing down the left button on your mouse)

BOO
- too similar to normal videos as seen on TV news; usually only still pictures exist though
- less choice and selection
- need strong image and/ or sound, otherwise piece won't work
