Animoto - You Can Now Add Video Clips!

As you know my presentation on digital tools and multimedia in late July at the 2009 GACTE included the dynamic and professional online slideshow maker Animoto. Last week, the Animoto site announced that you can now add video clips to your Animoto videos! Watch a some sample videos on the Animoto site to see what your projects can look like.

According to their email announcement, it stated that, "You will not believe how good your vids are going to look. And using video clips in your Animoto videos couldn't be easier--no need for a complex video editor!"

Follow these three steps to add the video to your project:

1. Upload clips from your camera or phone, or use some from our collection.
2. Choose your highlights. You can choose highlights of up to 10 seconds each, though we recommend using only 3-5 seconds as that works best within the flow of an Animoto video.
3. Create the rest of your video as normal, and you're done.

Enjoy!
