Supercharged videos more akin to music videos than slideshows

Animoto is a web application that, with the click of a button, produces videos using images and music that a user selects. Using their patent-pending Artificial Intelligence developed to think like an actual editor & director, the resulting video has the emotional impact of a movie trailer and the visual energy of a music video.

I have a Coupon Code - fvlejmaq - use it to save $5 bucks if you choose to use the All-Access Pass version.  (Basic is still FREE.)
