Cool Site for the Day: Make Your Own Animated Movie

Over on Sadly, No!, I keep seeing them post these cute little animations, except the cute little animations aren't from YouTube. And, okay, they're pretty crude in execution, as in Dire-Straits-Money-for-Nothing-Crude.

And the computerized, digitized voices are hilarious in a strange way.

Needless to say, I had to find out where they were getting this stuff.

Check out Xtranormal, the Web site where if you can write, you can make your own little animated movie!

It actually looks very cool.

The free account gives you a very limited set of characters, while the premium accounts look far more customizable.

There's not a lot there yet to choose from for examples, but I thought this one was kind of cute.

yeah, XtraNormal is pretty cool. If you like doing online animation, check out www.goanimate.com (free accounts are available).

www.animoto.com is a fun site to make videos out of pics & music that you upload (you can also select music from their site). Free accounts are limited to 30-second videos, but you can get a premium account (or pay as you go for longer videos). I have heard that Photopeach does the same thing (also free) but I haven't tried it

If you like making picture books, check out www.BigUniverse.com - you can make online picture books for free (premium accounts have a lot more features available)

Well, those sites ought to keep you busy for a while!
