Features

Designed to support your unique needs

Animoto for Photography is loaded with features designed to support the unique needs of businesses. In addition to Animoto's regular features, your account will be equipped with the following:

White label

Remove all Animoto branding from your video when you sign up with Animoto for Business.

Unlimited DVD-quality videos

Create, download and burn as many DVD-quality videos as you like. Give these to clients as gifts or resell them for profit.

Call-to-action button

Add a custom call-to-action button at the end of your videos. This optional feature turns an Animoto video from a passive viewing experience into an active marketing tool for lead generation. For example, create a button to "inquire about rates" that links to your appointments page, or "learn more" that links to your website.

Note: the "Call to Action" button works only with the Animoto embed code. It won't appear in downloaded videos, and won't link to your site if you export a video to YouTube.

Commercially licensed music library

300+ free-to-use songs licensed for commercial use. We did all the heavy lifting for you.

Speed control

In addition to Animoto's recommended speed, derived from the tempo of the selected song, you can choose half and double speeds. Half speed is ideal for displaying each image longer within your videos, while double speed can heighten the action in a more stylized video composition.

Ideas to Build Your Biz

Give your studio a competitive advantage

Give prospective clients another reason to choose your studio over the competition by offering gorgeous video that your clients can easily share with their friends and family.

Sell DVDs to your clients

With unlimited DVD-quality downloads, you can easily produce DVDs that play in beautiful widescreen format on your clients' TVs. We've heard from many wedding photographers who make much more selling a single Animoto wedding video than they spend for an entire year of Animoto for Photography.

Sell more DVDs

Animoto is so fast and easy to use that you can create videos for every single shoot. And, by sharing web-friendly videos with your clients via email, you can give them a tantilizing preview of the DVD they can order.

Create a new revenue stream

Do you currently sell web-friendly videos that your clients can post to their social networking site, carry on their iPhone or email to their friends and family? Animoto automatically produces each video in a web-friendly format that can be resold to clients, or used as an incentive to encourage your clients to purchase your more expensive photo packages.

Help your clients share your photography

Provide your clients with vidoes they can easily email to friends and family, post to social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace, carry on their iPhone or iPod, upload to YouTube or post to their blog or website. Each video that your clients share is a terrific brand building tool for you, and a traffic generating vehicle that can drive potential clients straight to your site!

Kick off proof sessions with video

A powerful way to launch into a proof session, generating excitement before the proof session begins and get your clients ready to order lots of prints.

Enhance your website or blog

Make your website or blog even more compelling with videos that reflect holiday, seasonal, or back-to-school specials, or simply to show-off especially fantastic sessions to prospective clients.

Create marketing videos to increase business

Email Animoto videos to existing clients to remind them to schedule a holiday photo shoot, portrait sitting, pet shoot, etc.

Video of the month

Post a video of the week/month/season to your blog or website and inspire prospective clients to schedule appointments and current clients to schedule more photography sessions.

Create promotional videos for trade shows

Make sure you've got the most compelling booth at your next convention by showcasing your photography as show-stopping video.

Upload promotional videos to YouTube

Increase your visibility with traffic generating "commercials" on YouTube.

Help your e-newsletter go viral

Add video to your e-newsletter and create a marketing tool that your clients will want to read and share.
