The year is coming to a close and now is the time when I love to create end-of-the-year videos. We take so many pictures and video that every year-end video is so emotional. I’m always looking for new apps to help me out with this and Magisto is perfect!
Magisto is an app that uses AI to automatically transform the digital content on your device into memorable videos that you can share with friends and family.
I used Magisto on my Android to put a few 2014 memories into one video and it came out adorably! Magisto allows me to choose a cute (or adventurous!) pre-set theme for my photos and video. My next video will most certainly be the holiday-themed one, compiled of all of the adorable Christmas photos and videos I’ve already taken of the kids and pets this year!
Magisto gives you several options of appropriate songs for each theme, or you can choose your own music from your device. I think I’ll be using a little of both, some of the tunes are songs I’ve never heard but are really great for the setting!
My favorite feature on the Android app is the ability to make an Instagram-length video since I’m an avid Instagram user. I also like that you can use this app on your personal computer, not just your mobile devices. In my experience, that’s not something most of the apps offer and for as many times as I’ve had to switch mobile devices over the years, this is good for all of the old videos that I have saved to my laptop but nowhere else.
It will be so nice to have an easy way to share so many of the moments in video form. Share your vacations, holiday gatherings, memories with Grandma, or birthdays over the years. Another video on my list will be of all of my daughters years from birth to now, including her most recent, “Thank you all for the birthday wishes!” video she wanted me to post on my Facebook page. I know that someday she’ll look back on these videos and smile, and her grandmother will appreciate them too!
With Magisto, you have the option to modify the length of your videos and share them on various social media sites. You’ll be able to save your videos into various albums on your account, which you can access with your login from all of your devices. You can also view public videos made by others or share yours publicly. I’ve noticed that each theme has its own special perks so you’ll want to be sure to check out each theme individually and play with the features. I love the intro drawing on the “Love Bytes” theme and find that one so sweet.
Here’s what I came up with, using the Magisto app, but that’s just the beginning!
