Looking for a creative way to say I love you to those special people in your life? Or even to create a marriage proposal?
To say “I love you” to that special person and/or friends and family, you can easily create a professional quality video slideshow complete with music and text, from your photos and/or video clips, with a service called Animoto. To get started, just go to Animoto.com, and select your favorite Valentine’s Day style and Animoto does the rest.
Animoto has several new Valentine’s Day templates to choose from so you can easily to create video greetings. Along with the video template or ”style,” you can add music to your video, selecting from songs available on Animoto, or uploading one of your favorite songs. After the video is created, you can easily share them via email, Facebook or create a DVD.
To get started, 30 second videos are free to create and share. A monthly subscription to Animoto costs $5 for longer length videos and an annual subscription is $30.
Several have used Animoto to create a marriage proposal video that they shared with their loved one on Valentine’s Day. In fact, the cofounder of Animoto proposed to his girlfriend (now wife) via an Animoto video!
The heart of Animoto is its Cinematic Artificial IntelligenceTM technology that thinks like an actual director and editor, using the same sophisticated post-production skills and techniques that are used in television and film. The technology takes into account every nuance of a song: the genre, song structure, energy, rhythm, instrumentation, and vocals – and syncs the images to the music- to that you have an amazing video.
Here are some sample Valentine’s video slideshows:

I recently received a subscription to Animoto Plus and am so impressed by the videos I have been able to create. Animoto is super easy to use and very customizable. They have a great selection of styles and music available. It’s such a fun way to share pictures with family. The video below is the first one that I created using Animoto, using some pictures from a recent trip to Snow Mountain Christmas.
