Expected time to complete: 15-45 minutes

Now that you have a "storyboard" it is time to make sure that you have the images that you will need to create your video. Please note the Technical specs for Animoto videos.



Note the specs for "images"



Normally, the *.jpg format works the best. So, when you are looking for, or creating your image, make sure you are creating a *.jpg photo image. There are various ways that you can locate or create the digital photos that you will need to include in your video:

To locate Creative Commons Photos, go to Flickr creative commons collection or "Pictures" at @http://www.sitepoint.com/30-creative-commons-sources/ for the various suggested websites. You can search for and download the photo's you would like to use. Remember to note the name of the photographer and how they would like to be credited for their photography.
 * With a digital camera, photograph the people, locations, etc. that you want to include in the video. Then download these photos to your computer. Use photo releases with ministry projects, especially when children are involved.
 * Use your cell phone or your smart smart phone to photograph the"pictures" you want to include. Once downloaded to your computer, you will be able to use these photos in your film.
 * If you have old photographs that you would like to use that are not in a digital format, locate a "scanner" that you can use to create a "digital format" for the photo.

When you have all the images you will use for your video, just indicate on the coach's page that you are ready to create your video.

Not sure if this is what you wanted, but here is the video I created using animoto just a few days after this very helpful webinar. http://animoto.com/play/xWEIULQVCqb4xAL6fSfKHQ
