Panning and Zooming on Photographs2. While you can create your own with a general purpose tool, About.com has some good advice about specific tools. These take a bunch of photos and does the Ken Burns thing, they then product video files that you can then stuff into a DVD.
The best way to achieve this effect is to use software specifically created for this purpose, such as Canopus' Imaginate and Ulead's CD and DVD PictureShow 3 Deluxe. Imaginate and Ulead are two of the best, with a truckload of prebuilt paths for panning and easy-to-use interfaces. Microsoft also offers the free Photo Story 3. (Thanks to Steve Miller in Middletown, New Jersey for clueing me in about Photo Story).
