Our Latest Styles

The video style will determine the look and feel of your video. Every Animoto video is completely unique because our Cinematic Artificial Intelligence analyzes the nuances of your images, video, and music. You control the types of effects, backgrounds, and transitions by selecting a video style. Some styles are abstract while others are themed for a special occasion or time of year. There’s an Animoto style that’s perfect for every story, event, or theme.

Animoto Pro gives you access to exclusive styles designed for, and approved by, professional photographers and business owners. Elegant and creative, these styles are perfect for showcasing photography, real estate, or products.

Music library

Music Library

Music has a huge impact on your final video. Choose a slower song, and your video will appear more subdued. A fast song will add to the intensity of transitions and effects. Animoto Lite and Plus give you access to a library of 13 genres. You can use these songs for personal videos on Facebook, YouTube, or blog. If you don’t like our tunes, you can always upload your own MP3.

Music licensed for commercial use is expensive and a pain to manage. Whether you’re a photographer reselling your video or a business advertising on YouTube, we take care of the licensing headaches for you. Animoto Pro is loaded with over 1000 commercially licensed songs in 15 different genres.

High definition

Animoto videos come in several different resolutions. Our web-friendly 360p videos load quickly and are perfect for embedding, sharing on social media, or downloading to a mobile device. 480p videos are perfect for burning to DVD, and 720p high definition videos will look stunning on any size screen.

Cinematic Artificial Intelligence

Cinematic Artificial Intelligence

At the heart of Animoto is its newly developed Cinematic Artificial Intelligence technology that thinks like an actual director and editor. It analyzes and combines user-selected images, video clips and music with the same sophisticated post-production skills and techniques used in television & film.

The technology takes into account every nuance of a song - the genre, song structure, energy, rhythm, instrumentation, and vocals. Whether it's punk, pop, hip-hop or a classical Mozart piece, every Animoto video is totally customized. Even videos generated with an identical set of images and music will each have a completely distinct set of motion design. No two videos are the same.

Unbranded videos

Pro Feature

Animoto Pro videos are completely white-labeled so your clients and customers will never guess how easy it was. No Animoto logo in the video, no logo on the embeddable flash player, no logo when you share on social networks, and you can even share the video on an unbranded player page.
