My Digital Stories
I really liked the Animoto website.  All I had to do was upload the images that I wanted and pick a song and I was done.  No fuss, no muss.  Simple and to-the-point.  It told my story just the way I wanted it to be told.
So I tried out another Digi story software. This one isn't as easy as the other. I used a lot of my time to crop, resizing, and rearranging images. I also wasn't able to control how fast each page was going by, so the audience has to rush through each page really fast. I didn't like that. I was also unable to preview what it would look like.
So I found the VoiceThread to be a little less animated. There isn't much flare to it. A bit on the boring side. I think it would better if I could actually talk if I had my headset with me. It would add another dimension, and in that case, there would be audio and visual. However, there is only visual right now. Also, the test is barely legible, which is a con.
