Tools for creating vidoe, converting video and just watching video

Masher

The term “mash-up” usually refers to an audio clip that’s a mix ‘n match of two different songs joined into one. Here I am ignoring a related expression which stands for completely destroying, wrecking or mutilating. Masher probably is a take on the word (the earlier one!) as it’s a free online service that lets us string together videos, photos, words, SFX effects and music to create “mashes”. Masher is convergence.

Top 5 Online Movie Makers

So, after Mark showed you how make quick and professional videos on Windows Movie Maker, you think you’re cut out to be the next great online movie director? After shooting countless video clips and pictures, you now have to bring them all together with some video editing magic to create your movie.

However, renting an editing room or buying propriety software might be just out of your price range. Free desktop software might not do because it might seem a little “too technical” for some of us or simply doesn’t have the feature you’re looking for. Thankfully, there are a lot of simple online tools to help you make a movie online for free.

  • One True media is a popular online application for creating videos, montages, and slideshows. Users can upload their own clips or use the One True Media’s video resource library and compile them while adding audio effects and video transitions. One True Media has a seamless tabbed interface so that you can easily complete your video editing tasks such as adding transitions and captions, rearranging clips, and cutting unnecessary scenes
  • Jaycut is not just an ordinary flash-based “upload-edit-share” tool since it has the core features that you will find in simple video editing software like Windows Movie Maker. You can upload clips from your camera, mobile phone or webcam then compile them into a nice video by adding captions and music.
  • Animoto is a straightforward application for creating what we call “glorified slideshows” using your photos in just minutes – thanks to its “Cinematic Artificial Intelligence” that analyzes the nuances of a song to create the right effect and transitions for your photos.
  • Motionbox is primarily a video sharing site that has a more personal touch than the big names out there. Its hidden gem is the video mixer that allows you to make new videos from existing videos. The mixer function can combine videos or break them in short-sweet bunches.
  • Shwup rolled out with a new and improved layout, cleaner design and third-party integration with various photo sharing sites. But Shwup shines with its simple video editor taken from the popular Muvee video editing software. Shwup captures the essence of Muvee with simple drag and drop storyboard interface, preset themes, and music.

Anjo.to

is a nice easy to use web site which converts video from YouTube and other sharing sites to a number of different formats that you can use elsewhere on your compute. Simply copy in the url and select the format you want then download it. Easy

Publish and track videos on multiple sites

TubeMogul is a very powerful online tool for video publishing; it’s basically like Ping.fm except for videos, with an added bonus of in-depth analytics. With TubeMogul, you upload a video and send it to multiple sites at one time. A list of support video sites can be found here. It also allows publishers, both large and small, to gain a better understanding of how well their videos are being received by their viewers via charts and graphs.

Animation

GoAnimate

can do loads of stuff! While we do our best to make it easy to use, it is always hard to pack so many features onto a computer screen and make it easy for say a chiwawa with its legs attached behind its back to use. Whether you have trouble creating animations or you want to learn about the more advanced features of the application, this page is the place to be!

DVD

Easy way to create a DVD from any video file - free!

It used to be true that, to produce a DVD, one must have expensive equipment and machinery. Thanks to some nifty free software, the creation of a DVD suitable for play in your home theater is not only possible, but simple.

Today I’ll be showing you how to use the free DVD Flick to convert just about any video files to DVD format. DVD Flick supports a huge number of audio and video file formats. You may create DVDs from avi, vob, iso, wmv, mp4 and even Flash video (FLV) so that you may preserve that YouTube pirated movie cute cat video for generations.

For starters, we’ll need a good video file. In this example, I’ve downloaded the latest episode of Pure Pwnage, which is probably the greatest ever Internet show about pr0s who pwn n00bs @ g4m3z. If you can read that last part, you might have already seen the show. Moving on.

DVD Collecting

5 Ways to catolog your movie collection online

While there are several desktop software applications to catalog your movie collection, doing it online has several benefits:

  • Easily share your collection, ratings, reviews with friends
  • Look up your collection via your cell phone while shopping
  • Compare online prices to get better deals
  • List your collection in social networking sites like Facebook
With DVDSpot closing down last year, thousands of movie collectors seem to have been left in the lurch. Social sites for cinephiles such as Flixter and iHeartMovies do not offer a permanent offline solution for cataloging. With that in mind, here’s a look at websites that allow you to catalog your movie collection online, and also let you export your 
collection for offline backup
