The Talk in Written, Spoken or Video Form

While in the shower, I had a thought. 

What if I created the Social Documentary Talk "Photography as a Force for Good", in book form. The photographs and the pics, stories, titles in a book (no videos possible). I doubt it would have the impact of a live talk presentation but at least it would have staying power. It would be something to leave behind after my death. Something that would have a chance at helping people, making a bit of a difference in the world. 

The other option is do some kind of PowerPoint live spoken presentation, that might be more impactful but probably seen less.

A video of the talk intercutting me speaking with the presentation photos and vids and photos intercut on PowerPoint might work best. I do not have the money to produce that, unless it was some kind of static camera, which would be boring and near unwatchable. Could I set up several cameras and cut in between them?

Will think more on this.

Note* A Ted Talk? Highly doubtful, but worth a look.
