Animoto Full Review

Animoto is an impressive slideshow maker that takes your photos and music and automatically creates an amazing, 100% unique and professional video slideshow. Animoto is a web application that automatically generates professionally crafted videos using proprietary Cinematic Artificial Intelligence technology and high-quality motion design.

Animoto Main Features:

• Quickly create professional widescreen videos from your photos and music (all this automatically, you will only be prompted to upload the files).
  
• Upload images from your PC or pull them from Flickr, Facebook, Smugmug, Picasa and Photobucket.
  
• Background Music: Upload your own tune or choose one from the Animoto gallery (Hip Hop, Electronica, Indie Rock).
  
• One Click Video Remix: Generates new and 100% unique video mixes with every click.
  
• Create slow-motion or fast-paced videos (it all depends on your choice of background music).
  
• Embed videos on your blog, website, or profile (Myspace, Facebook, etc.).
  

The Animoto project is an online resource that transforms a set of photos into a real video. With it, you can create a presentation using various video effects. The presentation uses preloaded photos and music. At the same time, the service itself composes the slides, adds special effects and, as a result, creates a rather colorful presentation video.

Animoto's presentation capabilities are available to registered users. Registration is free. After authorization, the user selects the type of future presentation - short (Animoto short) or long (Full-length).

In the first case, a 30-second movie will be created, consisting of approx. 12-15 frames. This is a good way to try out how interesting this resource is and what might come of it. There are no other restrictions, except for the duration, in such videos, and you can download them to your computer, post them on Internet resources, etc. (more details on additional features will be discussed later).

Creating a long presentation (Full-length) is possible only for those users who have paid a fee for working with the service.
