You can now add video clips to your Animoto videos! Watch a few sample videos and find out more here:http://animoto.com/video
Just follow these three steps:
1. Upload clips from your camera or phone (iPhone 3GS anyone??), or use some from animoto's collection (thanks to iStockphoto and Getty Images).
2. Choose your highlights. You can choose highlights of up to 10 seconds each, though they recommend using only 3-5 seconds as that works best within the flow of an Animoto video.
3. Create the rest of your video as normal, and you're done.
To celebrate the launch of the video clip feature, animoto is holding a contest in which you can win an action-packed TRIP FOR TWO TO NEW YORK CITY! All you have to do is submit your best video. Sooooo easy. Here's the deal: each week for five weeks, they'll announce 2 finalists, and just for being a finalist you'll get a Flip Mino HD (awesome) or a VholdR ContourHD helmet camcorder (really awesome).
Then at the end animoto will announce the grand winner.
