Make an Animoto video

  • Go to FlickrStorm
  • Think of a topic that interests you and write it in the search box
  • Click on advanced and the option Search creative commons photos
  • Download the photos you like (you need 12 - 15) to the class folder on the computer
  • When you save your photos, give them a name you'll be able to recognise them by
  • Now go to Animoto
  • Sign in with the email address and password that I've given you
  • Now click on Create video
  • Select Animoto short
  • Click on Upload
  • Find the folder where you downloaded the photos you saved earlier and select them
  • Once your photos have uploaded, think of some text to add and click on add text
  • Drag and drop your text to where you want it in the video then click on Continue
  • In Get your music, choose Select from our collection and select something you like
  • Give your video a title and click on Create video
  • When your movie is complete (which takes a time), view it
  • Now click on the option Enbed/Post online (the pin icon) and then on Blogger
  • When prompted, fill in the email address you use for signing into Blogger and your password - the title of this blog should appear in the pop up menu
  • For Title of post put the title of your video.
  • Click on OK and Animoto should advise you that your video has been posted on the blog
