Very cool online video tool

I just tried out a new online video / slideshow creation tool, Animoto. Incredibly easy, quick & fun.
I grabbed some images from our recent trip to GenCon for Aidan 5 and created one of the Animoto shorts (free). Looks like you can purchase “full-length credits” as well for longer pieces.

Here’s what I put together (took about 5-10 min total).

Aidan 5 Ep. 1 goes live

The indie Web series I have been a part of, Aidan 5, has finally launched it’s first episode “The Rooftop”!
I did a good deal of the background drawings and there were a few very late nights and compromises in order to hit our launch date of the the 14th, but it’s here and live.
We’ve got a booth at GenCon in Indianapolis (#2014) and will be doing a screening of the episode along with Q&A at 7pm Saturday night. The shows site is starting to fill out as we add production stills and blog entries from the cast & crew.
It has been awesome working with such a talented crew. We ran into some roadblocks late in the process and the VFX / compositing guys at RAVE have killed themselves to get everything done. They will be participating in this years 48 hour Film Project which was the origin of the Aidan 5 series.
