    You could keyframe in some smooth pans and zooms.

    If you have Vegas and some picture files, you’ve got all you need to get going. I primarily put together “slide shows” for our high school’s sporting events banquets. You can start with very basic “pan and scan” (i.e. al la Ken Burn’s documentaries that use old pictures that he pans across to give the illusion of “movement”).
    To spice it up, add a music soundtrack and/or sound effects (i.e. crowd applause), then add titles to the production with a “Starring” lead-in and an end titles sequence using Vegas titles. You are only limited by your imagination (or the imagination of someone else you borrow from). Below are some examples of projects I’ve put together using almost exclusive “slide show” format (although I would argue that the output is much more than a simple “slide show”), that I’ve posted on YouTube:

    for another one I didn’t do (which I was that good), see this one

    which was done all in Sony Vegas (although it has live-action).

    Good Luck!
