Animoto is a web-based program that makes video slideshows. You upload images, add in text, choose a piece of music and then your video is rendered based upon the effects you choose and the beat of the music. You will need a Promo Code from your teacher in order to get full access; otherwise, you are limited to 30 second videos. The text characters are limited in each box, so be thoughtful with what you want to say.

My Simple Show Explainer Video Creator
With MySimpleShow, you select the type of video you want to produce (Explain a medical disease, a biological process, an historical event, a mathematical concept, etc.) and then you write the script into the pre-organizing story board. Based on your text, options for line drawn images are given. Select what you want and then you can do your own recording or use the computer generated voices to read your script. Hit Publish and you're done!
