Animoto

I have found a website I really like for creating pictures into video. If you go to www.animoto.com/education, you can create a free account for educators which allows you to make full feature videos. The main reason I like this site is because the music used is free and there are no copyright infringement. Students can select pictures of their choosing and then select pre recorded music from up and coming artitsts. Generally the music is not "cheesy". Average time for me to create a video is 3-5 minutes; when I am finished it is a professional looking media.

Now that our district has SchoolPointe, you can share or embed the video links to your classroom website and be free of creating dvds and such. As a parent, I would appreciate seeing some of my child's work online.

Here is an example of an animoto I created:
