Animoto – build a swish video online
A mate of mine at work (no link-love because I don’t know if he has a blog
) showed me animoto today. This site is really cool. You can upload photos, add or choose music, and it produces what could be used as really cool presentation intro videos. Here’s a sample I made using some photos from Vegas, and music from their library:
The site is in beta, so it is a bit buggy but totally usable. For a nominal fee you can produce bigger and better videos. I rate this concept highly, producing similar videos would cost a fair amount.
Here’s a sample video made using pictures from this property on Domain.com.au (as you can see, this could have some interesting commercial applications):
The rendering process is fairly slow (as you’d expect), but it’s well worth trying out.
