Your family history as a slide-show/video

I can't remember seeing anything like this here on RootsChat so I'm passing along an idea I saw on my german forum about presenting FH results.
The author has used a free program called
Fotostory 3
to create a slide-show about various aspects of his family history.
He has offered us the beginning of the show for us to form our own opinions, and you can download it (for private vewing only, please) here (6.5MB) :

I (and others) found it a very good way to present FH to others in the family, who aren't so interested as we are, and wouldn't want to look through a "paper edition".
Worth a look, and who knows, maybe it will inspire a few ideas. I must admit I'm alread thinking of ways in which I could combine screen-shots from my website with other material to make a video/slide-show
Here is a topic link, in case you can read german:

The program he is using is (I think) this one:
