It generates slick video slideshows out of your photographs with ken-burns style animations set to music. It used to have a one-and-done purchase model but has since tried to move to a monthly fee. I can't imagine why. I've used it twice, once for a funeral, once for a wedding. When they switched to monthly I gave up using it.
It's because they're all from this website Animoto. They're pre-made intros and you just add in pictures / videos and it renders it for you.
No need to risk getting in a car accident to get to the trail. Ride your bike. If the trail is too far, don't go. Parks are getting closed due to overcrowding because people aren't staying in their neighborhood.
Here's a video from the city encouraging you to stay in your neighborhood to keep parks open
If you feel like you have to send her something, there’s lots of free apps like Animoto which make it really easy to personalize a Mother’s Day video. Bonus narc points if you include how sad you are that you can’t do more due to pandemic stuff!
I’m sorry you have to deal with this.
I used Animoto for a long picture presentation in Grad School. It $8/month and I cancelled after one month. I set the theme, dumped the picture on, added captions and select some of there music. Easy to use and looks great.
Ask admin if you can bribe teachers for pictures with jean passes. 10 pictures per jean pass or something like that.
> If i'm shooting in RAW + post-processing, can I basically ignore all the various scenes/modes on my camera?
No, because only some stuff can be changed in post-processing.
For example "sports mode" prioritizes a fast shutter speed to freeze action.

There's no way to postprocess the shot of the jogger at 1/60 to look like the one at 1/500.

I'm sorry for what you're going through. It's hard.
I think you're going to come up dry here on /r/VideoEditing - mostly because everyone here is using software where they have to edit. All of the tools you mention:
> ProShow, PhotoStory, and PicturesToExe
Are powerpoint centric. I haven't heard of anyone using them.
I have heard of Animoto.
You're in an odd place - you're looking for something that is template driven for a single use...I'm not sure we're going to be of much help here.
> ProShow
Animoto and ProShow Web are very popular and easy to use. You can try them both for free and see if they have what you need.
No, it's from a comic called 'My Goddamn Upstairs Neighbor' by CBrown.
Here is a link to his site (includes some nsfw figures sketches) But, includes other sketches as well, including this Ewok versus some Stormtroopers.
This isn't exactly what you're asking for, but it's a good source of info from the union re: Kroger's opening position and the union's reaction:Message from UFCW Local 7 President Kim Cordova
FTR, several terms laid out in Kroger's newest, "last, best" offer more than erase the value of any salary increases, i.e. worse, more expensive benefits.
This video spells out the many, many ways Kroger intends to screw employees...
I do agree with OP, if you want to gain a more viewers, gotta step it up with better video quality. 360p looks like crap on my big screen. 720p is considered “HD”.
I couldn’t agree more with the 8 tips you gave. However, in case you want to make it 10 - I’ll add 2 more ;-)
Group work is goodIt would be good for increasing more peer interaction and overall engagement.; With this, not only will students their interests be showcased, but so will be their different strengths and weaknesses. Just make it manageable by trying to break projects into multiple steps with smaller assignments.
You might already have a learning management system, but in addition, e-learning is evolving fast and there are a variety of newer tools and apps which can help. While the tool that you’re using now facilitates your online classroom - but E-learning is evolving and every now and then, a variety of tool and app are developed and made available which can aid you in your quest for online learning perfection. For instance, Animoto https://animoto.com/ empowers your students to create 30-second video clips of what they’ve learned. Alternatively, you could utilise a word cloud tool, a quizzing solution or even learning games to capture your student’s attention.
Embracing the digital revolution and making the leap into online classroom sessions can be nerve-wracking. Making online classes interesting is even harder.
While online classrooms are limited in some ways, they also open a virtual doorway to new learning experiences. Learning experiences that are more accessible, more interactive and — dare we say it — more engaging than ever before. All it takes is a digital mindset, the right tools and a focused approach.
People don’t have the attention span that they used to. They want information that they can easily digest – and a video delivers in a way that no other content can.
There are a number of reasons to make social video marketing your next “new” thing:
Once you create a single video, it can be shared by millions, allowing more and more people to see the video. After posting, you don’t pay a dime. It can be shared by followers and their followers and their followers, making it one of the most affordable marketing strategies that you take advantage of.
Videos are versatile, and they work for any industry. You don’t have to be a visual business like a restaurant or a fashion store, either.
Plenty of people ask us what a video can say about their business. The beauty of a video is that it can be anything you want it to be. Entertain people about your brand, explain some of the more complex services and products. Let people have that “Aha!” moment when they see your videos. Show them, through animation or real people that they can’t live without your product or service.
They always say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Videos, then, have to be worth about a billion. The combination of audio and visual is powerful – and it can resonate with your target audience better than any Facebook post or blog will ever do.
According to this link, the only rule you're not complying with is the following:
Videos must be 2 minutes and 20 seconds or less
So no censoring here
Wow, my Facebook feed is cluttered with ads for these "drag and drop" video makers. The first one that pops up today is a company called doodly.com. There's another one called animoto.com. Just google "business video maker", they're the hot new thing.

Animoto.com, fiverr.com or your local videographers. Prices and quality varies, of course...so your budget will likely determine your choice. I used to do these for $2-$4/photo. But that included individual attention to each photo.
Automated software destroyed much of that market, and that doesn't bother me much. These were never much fun to put together.
My advice: cull your photos, fix them youself (as much as possible) for color/contrast. avoid anything that is low resolution (sub 720 pixels wide), and use some good numbering system to keep them in the order you want. Any time you spend in the front end will save you money and headaches in the back end.
Have you tried Animoto? Kids at my old school used it all the time, and it was definitely accessible for middle schoolers; a second grader might need a little help, but probably not much.
Great idea and it depends on actual price/vide you can provide. Also, how will you compete with Animoto's self-service online video editor (which supports square video for social networks)
Lovely reel! Welcome to Brooklyn. Have you heard of Animoto? I think they are new, but they probably would love to have some of your talent in their network. They reached out to me about being a subject in a promo video.
Not sure if you found a solution, but maybe make her a video using Animoto? I just made one for my mom- it was super quick to make and looks like I spent a lot of time on it; the templates are beautiful!
