I am currently looking at purchasing a program to make videos out of all the pictures I take for sports and for graduation videos. I have a MAC computer...OS X Yosemite ..10.10.5 version..3.2 Ghz Intel Core I5...
Would love some feed back on both. I 've looked at Roxio and they have a program for Mac computers it's called Toast 14 Titanium..ALso need to purchase a DVD burner to copy DVD's on. Would also appreciate suggestions on this as well. Thanks, in advance!

Or you could just put them on thumb drives.

Please, No Roxio. Roxio crashed on me numerous times on any single editing. I'm now using Adobe premiere; no more problems.

I just got the Roxio toast 14 to create a "playable" DVD of my video files on Macbook pro OS-x and it was very easy to navigate -it only took a few minutes to make it - drag and drop ...
Hoping to make many more so I can share the videos with family and friends.
I use Nero on a PC for copying DVD's and it has worked very well

I use Toast Titanium on the Mac for most CD/DVD burning. It is a nice software package for disc burning. Not always user friendly though.

You can use software already on the Mac to make slide shows. Here is a link to an article that walks you through the process.

Adobe Premier Elements does that very well.

Don't have any advice on programs but I would recommend you get a burner with Blu-ray capabilities. It will make a difference in both video and slide shows.

There is a little used variation called "AVCHD Disc". It mimics a Blu-Ray when played on Blu-Ray players. To make one, you use a DVD burner and DVD discs. In actual use the primary difference is that the video or slide show is limited to about 20 minutes where the Blu-Ray burned on a Blu-Ray burner can be well over an hour. Since slide shows longer than 10 minutes put most people to sleep, the "AVCHD Disc" is more than adequate while avoiding the expense of Blu-Ray discs and burners.

Premier Elements makes it easy to make all three forms, DVDs, Blu-Ray discs or AVCHD discs. I'm sure many other programs do too.

You could also try Windows Movie Maker, which I use to build DVD compilations slideshows of my work.
