Youth Group Videos: Quick and Free

You come back from a retreat and you have a bunch of pictures and video.  You want to make an awesome video but have less than no extra time to create one, much less learn how to use some video editing software.  All you need to remember is Animoto.com 

Once you've signed up for a free account, you are ready to upload your images and videos for animoto to magically turn into a great video.  For free you get 30-second videos that you have to access through the web.  Do not fret, if you want to have longer videos, it's only $3 per video or $30 per year for unlimted.  The $30 also gets you the ability to download the video files so you can burn them to a DVD, upload them to a website, or whatever you need to do.

AND Animoto has a great selection of Christian music already uploded and ready to be used as your background (you are welcome to upload your own as well).  If you are wondering what they look like, here's what happened when we locked a sixth grader in our office for about 15 minutes with a bunch of picture files:
