Stop #21: Animoto

RIP Grimace

Using Animoto was actually very easy.  There were really only three steps and you can choose photos from social networking sites, flickr, or your own computer.  I chose to make a video with pictures of my cat who passed away last month.  The video turned out really nice and I am glad I was introduced to this website for a chance to memorialize him.

While Animoto is excellent for personal endeavors, it also has a place in the classroom.  Rather than make photo collages on poster board for presenting, students could create 30 second Animoto clips that would catch the attention of their fellow students much more than a tri-fold would.  It would also be cool to use for clubs or teams to recap an event or game.
