You can preview a story at any time as you record narration for your pictures. Pictures for which you have not recorded a narration or specified options in the Customize Motion dialog box will be displayed for the default number of seconds and be displayed using default panning and zooming effects during the story preview. To preview other pictures in your story, in the Photo Story Preview window, click the Previous Picture button or the Next Picture button

Notes
You can proceed to the next Photo Story page without recording narration or customizing motion for one or more of your pictures. Photo Story generates the panning and zooming effects automatically for these pictures. By default, each of the pictures appears for five seconds when you play the story.
If you want to add pictures to your story, drag them to the film strip, or click Back to return to the Import and arrange your pictures page.
