When we surveyed photographers about their preferences for video styles, we got an interesting split. There were many requests for simple, filter-free styles, but we also had photographers who loved styles that included filters. So in this edition of “Which Style Should I Use,” we’re addressing both sides of the filter divide with suggestions for each.
Animoto has a big selection of styles that present your photos without filters. Here are a few:
