Love photo sharing but wish you could tell more of the story behind each photo as you share it? Shadow Puppet is a new app that’s designed to help you do just that. Rather than simply sharing photos by themselves or with text captions, the app lets you share sets of photographs while narrating what the recipient is seeing.
The app was created by reader Adrian Graham and Carl Sjogreen, who have worked at Google and Facebook. Graham spent three years at Google as the product manager for Picasa.
Once you tap the record button, all your sounds and actions are captured by the app. You can talk about the photos, zoom into them, tap areas in them to indicate what you’re talking about, and flip through the set.
Putting a story to your photos...can now happen. An app for all those story tellers out there that want to send their friends and family a little piece of what they love. So as a photographer, not only is this a perfect gem but as a nostalgic one, at least for the story teller that ususally says it through the digital image. Now it can transfer through a voice recording, remembering a summer day.
