Animoto

So I uploaded a project one of my classes worked on last year. Originally it had been done on a video publisher program, but I was interested to see how Animoto could handle the project.

While it was very easy and user friendly, Animoto did take a very long time to upload. Plus while the free version is ok for quick short videos, it's not the best for longer more detailed ones.

You can upload relatively small numbers of photos, and being unable to manage the pacing of the photo transitions wasn't ideal. There also aren't very many music choices, and trying to add your own music or sound effects might sometimes conflicts with copyright laws.
