A Happy Holidays Video Greeting From Us!

When I received a video card from the folks at Raidious Digital Content Services, I was intrigued! Taulbee and the team used a service called Animoto to generate the greeting… so I signed up and did the same!

Here’s a video greeting from The Marketing Technology Blog:

It looks like the video conversion upon sending it to YouTube darkens the video a bit. If you have a tough time making things out, just view the greeting online. Animoto is a great service – and very affordable at $30 per year!

The video idea is great, and animoto seems to have some interesting features, but I noticed there was no audio other than the background song. There wasn’t even “Happy Holidays” written on the screen. We used TokBox (http://www.tokbox.com/) to record a greeting from our business and got a lot of positive feedback. No fancy editing, but it’s free.
