Animoto is a web based slide show Video maker that can either give you a 30 second quickie or a longer flash slide show. Once the show has been made you can re edit images and text at any time, as well as download a low and high res Mpeg version to either play on your computer and the likes of your ipods or you can burn it to a dvd to play on your DVD players.

SO HOW DO YOU DO IT?

Before you start select around 15 images for a quickie or up to 300 for a long video.

1- Select short or Full Length Video to make
A 30 second video is a great teaser and a full length video is perfect to sell to a client of their shoot as an extra or show to clients to promote your services

2- Upload Images - Choose the folder of images and shift click to select the selection now let Anomoto upload the files. Remember to re size images before this stage in Photoshop to make this process quicker. Animoto has some great tips and tricks on the site so when you get chance check them out.

3- Re-arrange Images and Add Text Slides - Simply drag images around to move their pecking order inthe show. Hit the “T” to add a Text slide.

4- Select Copyright Free Music - This is where you choose to either select one of Animoto’s copyright free tracks or upload your own.

5- Choose Genre of Music from list - Depends on your taste or more importantly the clients.

6- Select Track - you can play the track to select the best for your images. There are loads of choices here and if you are anything like me once you have found a couple of tracks you like, you will keep using them.
Fast = Funky and Young Images
Slow - Wedding or Classical Images

7- Save music track choice and continue to the last step.

8- Customize your video - this is where you select the speed of dissolves and EFX of the show as well as as add a link button at the end of the video to go to your web site or blog.

9- Enter Video Info - Name your show and add info about you and your services or enter details of the video you have made for clients to see, remember this video can be posted straight to Youtube as well as your own blog. Click Create Video

10- The last screen - but you don’t need to watch it as now its in Animoto world where all the magic happens. At this stage you can close the window down as the Animoto Team will send you an email and a link when its done OR you can go and start another. Its as easy as that!

11- The Video Slide Show will appear in your MY VIDEOS on the page or just click the link in the email

12- Click Play and Watch the wonder of ANIMOTO.

You can edit and re-edit the slide shows and it still keeps the original incase yo change your mind. This means you can have multiple copy’s of the same video with perhaps different text. Very Cool !
