Tuesday Tech Tip: Make lively with Animoto!
Christmas cards today are mostly pictures, but I received one this year that stepped the “great Christmas card photo” up to new heights.
It was done on Animoto.
I had checked out Animoto before, but since you could only create 30-second videos for free (and I always take too many pictures), I didn’t give it much thought until receiving the card.
With a little digging over break, I learned that to do more in Animoto wouldn’t cost a lot and would add a new resource in my communications tool box!
Within days, I created a video for my district looking back at 2014 that I posted on New Year’s Eve. That was fun and it got me thinking of other ways to use this.
With digital photography, it’s easy to take a lot of photos. And as communications professionals, we often want to share a lot of those photos when we publicize a great event or highlight our district to really show the full scope of what’s taking place.
Here’s a way to make a creative slide show where you can add not only photos, but also videos with creative and fun backgrounds that enhance your show even more!
