I am often giving presentations on the Camino asoneof my hobbies is public speaking. My mind is such that it "sorts" things into categories ans so when I make speeches / presentations I organise it in this way. I show photos of the paths / signs, accommodation, churches, fellow peregrinos, plants, wayside crosses,odds and sodds etc etc. The way I do this is to turn my photos into a DVD using windows movie maker (I am not a technological expert). I group my photos, insert the same symbolic photo between each section (eg a shell), which then indicates when to pause the DVD, and add music that is either appropriate to the photos or which is significant to me and my Camino experience. I also add a label on each photo if it is appropriate.
I talk about each group of photos and relevant stories and then just press play and allow the viewers to have an impression of what I saw. This way the audience gets more of a feeling of what it was like than if I were to stop after each photo and talk to each one.
Along with a map I put a scanned copy of one of my Compostela and a portion of one of the credentials.
I find a DVD easier to work with, as opposed to power point and once the basic one has been created it is pretty easy to modify it for subsequent speeches - and a wonderful way to relive and day dream about the Camino!.
Oh, and the other thing I do is usually begin and end with a quotation, one of which I posted elswhere on the quotes thread. I will often end by reading several paragraphs from the introduction in Kevin Codd's book - the bit about dusty bones, and racing off to find out the story - a great summary of the pull that the Camino holds for so many of us!
