Movie-making for science blogs

from Markus A. Dahlem, 05. June 2011, 14:58

Short movies are a great addition to posts in a science blog. I found a surprisingly easy-to-use tool for making text-based movies.

Guess what? I have not heart from YouTube as to why my video was disabled. So I'm working on a new video, but that will take a while. In the meantime, I've found xtranormal. You type something; xtranormal turns it into a movie. It is great fun.

 

If you like to create movies like this one, let me know. I can invite you and will be credited with 100xp (sort of digital money so I can make more videos on migraine for you. Just write a comment. Thanks). Of course, science blogs gain even more value from annimations explainng whatever the scientific topic is, like the one YouTube disabled. Xtranormal movies are "only" text-based, but still great fun.

By the way, read more about my disabled migraine video on YouTube and the nearly perfect example how to trigger a migraine attack with a movie on YouTube"

 

Acknowledgement

I found xtranormal on Sile O’Broin's blog post "Did Larry King Interview Sile on Migraines?"

And there is one more movie about migraines—well sort of—created with xtranormal "My Fibro-Migraine is acting up again".
