They Animoto Opens API, Interested?

Animoto, an application to make a video with a mix of photos, videos and music all of which can be prepared by each user, now opened their API which provides an opportunity for website owners to add Animoto features on their sites.

Like TechCrunch, written some time ago, the development of this Animoto Platform Partner called Quickstart. So will the website owners can use the feature Animoto owned, such as uniting the various images or images with added music, or combine them with video clips and added to the slide change effects like professional video editing style. Animoto site that uses on their site later can make it easy for their users to create animation animoto video content from various sites owned.

Animoto itself is basically a video production applications, much like a slide show but with transition effects between images is quite exciting, and of course music. My first time using Animoto, only available for images, text and music, but now can insert Animoto video clips that can be combined with photos and text and dictionary.

One of the seed is in the process of Animoto videos is very easy, just upload your photos or video from the computer, from the collections at Animoto or from another site and edit the content sequence, add text, add music, and voila! Video you’re finished, you can enjoy in your Animoto account or shared to other social networks, like YouTube for example.

Freemium shaped Animoto system, for short video for 30 seconds the user is not required to pay for the facility while more, such as a longer duration, or want to remove the logo on the Animoto video edits, users are given the pattern of payments per year, per the video or the budget for the professionals. And while for partner applications, Quickstart, Animoto does not charge a fee, they even make some kind of affiliate program that will give partners a commission for Animoto if another user is subscribed, though of course the duration of user generated will also depend on the membership Animoto own account owner.

Quickstart seems indeed more suitable for the site owners or commercial businesses that want to make deeper attachment to the user should. For example a specific product promotion program, the user can take to make certain video campaign with a variety of content provided by the site concerned.

Or suitable also for band or musician websites, as has been done Jon Bon Jovi who also use the Quickstart application in promoting their latest album, with a contest for users who are invited to create inspiring video about the hero with a combined content of the user belongs to content on the site owned by Jon Bon Jovi himself, such as video clips.

Still like TechCrunch, written, Quickstart API API is the first to be developed by Animoto and the possibility there will be other developments that could open the Animoto application usage on other sites become more widespread.

For those of you want to try, you can visit the Animoto site here for an example program run by Jon Bon Jovi with Animoto will be visible on this link, and for who want to try Quickstart here or here. And of course, we are waiting for your opinion on the comments column.
