From Animoto's website:
"Animoto is a web application that automatically generates professionally produced videos using their own patent-pending technology and high-end motion design. Each video is a fully customized orchestration of user-selected images and music. Produced on a widescreen format, Animoto videos have the visual energy of a music video and the emotional impact of a movie trailer. The heart of Animoto is its newly developed Cinematic Artificial Intelligence technology that thinks like an actual director and editor. It analyzes and combines user-selected images and music with the same sophisticated post-production skills & techniques that are used in television and film."
These are the steps I took to make this video and post it on ActiveRain:
1. Take some pictures of my listing. (In this case I stole the pictures from Kevin's page on the EWM website - with their permission of course. Thanks Kevin and Beth!)
2. Upload the pictures into Animoto.
3. Select a song from their song library.
4. Hit the "create" button and watch Animoto work it's magic.
5. Paste the embed code into this blog post.
Updated: For comparison sake, here is a show that I put together using Real Estate Shows. Both services took me about the same amount of time to prepare and used the same images. To me both video options are great and will impress sellers; I guess it comes down to style.
