The beautiful, romantic motif of Animoto’s latest themed video makes personalized gift giving simple
Animoto®, the video creation website that lets anyone quickly and easily create professional-quality videos from their own photos, video clips, music and text, today released its 2010 Valentine’s Day video greeting. A romantic and sentimental yet simple way to convey a message of love, Animoto turns shared memories into one-of-a-kind Valentine’s Day greeting to show, not just say, “I love you”.
“If a picture’s worth a thousand words, then an Animoto video greeting is worth a thousand paper cards,” said Brad Jefferson, CEO and co-founder of Animoto. “The memories contained in pictures and video clips of your loved ones shouldn’t remain untouched on your hard drive or memory card. We give you a simple way to create a video as unique as your love, that says something no greeting card could ever capture. So skip the clichés and take a few minutes to make an unforgettable, distinctive, timeless Animoto video.”
Animoto’s second annual Valentine’s Day greeting, one of many themed greetings to be released in 2010, features a flourish of hearts and swirls that meld with uploaded images and videos creating a custom-made animation fit for the holiday.
The heart of Animoto is its Cinematic Artificial IntelligenceTM technology that thinks like an actual director and editor, using the same sophisticated post-production skills and techniques that are used in television and film. The technology takes into account every nuance of a song: the genre, song structure, energy, rhythm, instrumentation, and vocals. Videos are produced in widescreen format and can be emailed, embedded on any website, shared via social network and mobile device, or downloaded in DVD-quality formats for display on computers, televisions, and even large projection screens.
Animoto greetings are an inexpensive and earth-friendly alternative to traditional greeting cards. Thirty-second videos are free to create and share, while full-length videos cost $3. Annual subscriptions to create an unlimited number of full-length videos are $30. Users can also download videos in DVD-quality for $5 or order a physical DVD for $20.
