Here’s how to create text slides for your Animoto video:

1. Decide on the text you’ll use in your video.
2. Create a new file in Photoshop, After Effects or other software with a 4:3 landscape aspect ratio. We recommend 1800px x 1200px as the optimum size for Animoto.
3. Using the colors and fonts you have in your logo, write out the text for your slides and save as a jpg.
4. Upload as a photo to your video.

That’s it! In minutes, you can have a unique visual that reinforces your brand of photography and sets you apart.
