Slide Shows get better at last

One problem for making videos for showing on the Internet is the awful quality you get, even with professional equipment - every month the techniques and service get better, but to make a lot of stuff for properties and travel, needs a big budget if it is going to be good.

Slideshows using still photos can be much better quality, but, they are so boring, usually with plinky-plonk music (if you are lucky) they are about as exciting as looking at someone elses holiday snaps - until now.

I am playing (literally) with a service from Animoto.com to see if I can suppliment simple vieo clips with interesting animation of better quality still photos. My first attempt was with a simple series of vendange photos Vendange1 I took this morning, but I can see that I need a storyboard linked with a relevant video for it to be useful - so “watch this space” (and youtube)
