Animoto Video Styles

Animoto has dozens of video styles designed to turn your video slideshows into mini-works of art.

Here’s a short explanation of the Animoto video style and why it’s an integral part of your videos.

The video style you select determines the look and feel of your video. Think of it as packaging. Each video style contains unique effects, backgrounds and transitions. The style is merged with your photos, video clips and music to create a unique, personalized Animoto video.

Some styles are abstract while others are themed for a special occasion or time of year. Here are just two examples of the same exact content in two very different styles:
