Assignment 4- Animoto

For this project, we had to do a multimedia slide show presentation using the Animoto design program. This assignment was interesting because it expanded on what was, to me, a fairly simple type of multimedia: the slide show. Mostly, I'd never considered that one might do more with a slide show than just present a visual and text based series of slides. Using Animoto, I could very easily see the difference as the addition of music and motion a simple series of still pictures gives the pictures a dynamic quality they would not otherwise have.

This project was a good way of helping me understand that a simple idea (such as the slide show) can be expanded into something more creative and complex. One doesn't have to settle for the simple and typical but can find ways to improve a project and give it some life.

Here's my Animoto video:

  1. This had to be one of the most simplest assignments. The one thing that I like about animoto that it does all the work for you. In your video, I like your usage of the pictures to tell a story and the background music was good also. Overall, great project presentation.
