Make a Cool Music Video for Dad

Picture_2We raved about this in the past, but with Father’s Day two weeks away we thought it’d be a good time to remind you why we love Animoto.com! Log onto this totally cool website and it’ll turn your photos into professional-looking music videos in three easy steps! Just upload the jpegs that you want to use in your video, choose a song from their library or your own, then sit back and wait while Animoto customizes a one-of-a-kind video in minutes. Then you can email it, download it, send it to a cell phone, or upload it to your fave video sharing site. So dust off those jpeg files and make a super special video for dad with your kids! Create a 30-second video for free or splurge for a full length video for $3. Watch the demo video here.

    I don’t think this is a safe website. I got to the part where I was supposed to view my video and it froze up, but none of the other websites I looked at did that.

    Joni – perhaps try one more time? I was able to view the video I created no problem. And perhaps if you go to the site and read their “about us” page, you’ll feel more comfortable about using the site.(Animoto.com was created by self-described “techies and film producers” with a patent pending technology.)

    Hi Joni,
    This is Rebecca & I work at Animoto. I am so sorry to hear that Animoto made you computer freeze up. That’s definitely no good (and pretty atypical).
    This may have happened due to you not having the most updated version of Flash.

    Our website is very Flash-heavy, so w/o the most updated version of Flash, you won’t be able to use our site at its optimal level (or in your case… at all). If you have any continued problems though, please never hesitate to write us:
    theguys@animoto.com
    We do all troubleshooting problems via e-mail, and will definitely be able to help you out.
    Take care,
    Rebecca
