Life Movie1.0 - App Store

Life Movie allows you to make up a slide show of your dreams and goals and then watch them, accompanied by the play list that you select in the music tab.

Slides can be either images that you have stored on your device, photos that you take with the camera or text describing your goal. You can choose from a range of transitions between slides and select how long each slide displays.

Note that if you see an image on the web that you would like to use to visualise a goal, you can save this to your device using Safari. In Safari, browse to the image you want then touch and hold the picture to save it to your Camera Roll. Once in the Camera Roll you can use it in Life Movie.

THE THEORY:

"What the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve".

This is the philosophy of Napoleon Hill, one of the greatest motivators of all time and author of the best selling book, "Think and Grow Rich."

Regularly visualizing your goals will cause your sub conscious mind to start working on how they may be achieved.

When you visualize, you rehearse how a problem can be overcome, how a new idea could be implemented, or what a piece of art looks, reads or sounds like. You mentally practice achieving and living your goal, which leads to the real thing.

Mental simulation provides a window on the future by enabling you to envision possibilities and develop plans for bringing those possibilities about. In moving yourself from a current situation toward an envisioned future one, the anticipation and management of emotions and the initiation and maintenance of problem-solving activities are fundamental tasks.

This has been demonstrated in a number of studies including Taylor, S.E., Pham, L.B., Rivkin, I.D., & Armor, D.A. (1998). Harnessing the imagination: Mental simulation, self-regulation, and coping. American Psychologist, 53.

For best results use Life Movie at least once a day. Consider having specific movies for different areas of your life (e.g. Health, Family, Work, Money, Relationships and Travel).

INSTRUCTIONS - MOVIE LIST SCREEN

The App will launch into the movie list screen which shows a thumbnail of all the Life Movies that you have produced. Tap the {+} button to add a new movie. Note that the thumbnail is produced using the first slide of your movie. Changing this slide (see below) will automatically change the thumbnail.

The blue {>} button to the right of an existing movie will launch the Edit Movie Screen with that movie loaded.

Tapping anywhere else on the row will start your Life Movie playing.

To add a new text slide, tap the Compose button. For an image, tap the Camera button.

To rearrange the slide order, tap and hold a slide and it will start shaking which indicates that you can now drag it.

To delete slides, tap the Trash can button to toggle delete mode (all slides will shake and the delete button is shown. Note that you can't move slides in delete mode). Tap the Trash can button again to exit delete mode.

Using two fingers you can pinch or zoom a slide to preview it full size.

Tapping the button with the film strip icon will open the Movie Option screen. From this you can add/edit the movie title, transition, slide duration and select whether your movie loops or only plays through once.
