Making a music video could not be easier this way!
Here’s one another band did -
Derek James – What’s that Sound?
There are 3 pay options for Animoto, Free, $30 and really expensive. Each one offers more options then the next. You probably would have to get the $30 option to be able to do full length music videos, but can definitely try it out with the free version first. I’ve tried it, and the $30 version does just about everything you could want to start making music videos that rock.
There are lots of applications for these videos once you start making them too. Here are a few:
updates for your newsletters (fan mailing lists)
promotional videos for youtube, myspace, etc.
‘our favorite fans’ videos
new music release videos
tour picture videos, the possibilities are endless.
And all these options are really quick and easy to make.
So try it out, and feel free to comment back and let us know what you think. But don’t forget this other cool side of the Animoto
