Fun slideshow service with Animoto
01/08/08 19:48 Filed in: General
I stumbled across this
really fun slideshow software on the net from
Animoto.
They have taken slideshows in a new and fun direction
with an excellent web based interface for creating
and sharing photo montages. What I like best is that
you can use a music background that they provide or
if you prefer, your own mp3 may be uploaded. What is
really intriguing is the internal algorithms used to
produce the end product. Once you upload your photos
and select your music track Animoto's servers go to
work analyzing the music and photos in order to
create a unique slide show.
With heavy beat oriented modern music the slide show will have a more aggressive feel with transitions between the photos. With more sedate or easy listening type music the transitions will be softer and less wild. Each time you submit your photo and music selection a different end product will be produced. One option is to simply resubmit it for remix.

I have requested a few new features from Animoto and let me tell you they are on top of support. Each time getting a response or thank you within a few hours. And they actually implemented one or two of my requests. Animoto has recently been purchased by google. It will be interesting to see where that takes them in the future.
