Hi, for a broadcasting project i have to do an autobiography. Anyways I'm kinda creativly dumb, i have a bunch of pictures from when i was a kid, you know doing like zooms and moving the picture around the screen and stuff, anyways we have to narrate it but i don't know what to say, so does anybody know of any good examples of autobiographys with narrations? Thanks

How about checking out the "Biography Channel"?

um...i don't think i have that channel, anyways i've never seen a good biography with narration. This is only for advanced broadcasting class in high school so it dosn't need to be profesional or anything. But i'm just looking for a good online one.

Oh yea, i make the best projects in that class, cause i use vegas and they use imovie and fcp

punkdrummer, check out The Kid Stays in the Picture , autobography by robert evans .a big time producer and crazy man on top in Hollywood before you were born. Probably get it at blockbuster i believe it is an HBO documentary.

You could tell a story or two about what you used to get up to at that age, or what you thought of the world, what were your preoccupations etc.

You could also throw in a random fact or two about what was happening in the world at that time - "The land speed record stood at XXXX, NNNNN won 3 golds at the XXX Olympics etc

Or, imitate people talking about you - e.g. "That kid's always got 'is 'ands in pockets - 'e'll never do any good" etc.
