You can choose the speed at which images appear in your video. This is really useful for getting the feeling of your video right, and also for getting more images for a given song. Here is how it works. 

Choose ‘Edit’ next to your song’s title:

This will open the editing options, including song start point and song pacing:

To change the pace of your video, move the pacing slider to the right or left:

Do you have pictures that just won’t fit into your current song? If the video is full, move the pacing slider to the right. You’ll see the following when you save:

Drag your images into the video & produce!

Even More Options for Changing the Speed of Your Video

1. Choose a slower song.

All Animoto visuals are designed to intelligently respond to the genre, structure, rhythm, and energy of your music.  By editing the video to have a more mellow tune, your images will appear at a slower pace.

2. Use our "Spotlight" feature.

In our image upload area, there are buttons to the right of your pics. The one with the star on it is the "Spotlight" button.

Highlight the images that you'd like emphasized in your video and then press the "Spotlight" button. Our engine will then know to sustain them on screen longer.

3.  Choose a different style.

Some of our styles are a little slower than the Animoto Original - play around and see which one might work better for you.
