just rotate the camera view to landscape orientation, it will switch to 16:9 capture

Only comparing the developer offering here.

Our main product, the video creation API, differs from Animoto API in a zillion ways that can be summed up by flexibility. Also, access is $30/mo, instead of I believe $30k upfront - OH, not public.

Then the 15 new APIs covered in the Forbes article are completely new and do not exist at Animoto or anywhere else as an ensemble of web services. Things like extrating a frame from video, detecting faces in photos, stabilizing videos, detecting beat in music. Our goal is to address the broader spectrum of developers and offer a complete toolkit of services to quickly build apps that process UGC.

Some of the new services exist as standalone APIs from some great folks like encoding.com zencoder.com (transcode), cloudinary imgix (photo serving), lambda labs (face detection), neospeech (TTS).

Thanks jmathai,

The 15 new APIs are a suite of specific services to quickly transcode, resize, slice & dice all kinds of media assets. They're meant to quickly build UI features around UGC media for web & mobile apps. Yes: if media asset management is the core value proposition, these services may be used to rapidly prototype and test new features, rather than build the core product. We do however have customers in the photo sharing space. The majority of them are either starting apps, or building UX quickly - for instance we've powered promotional experiences for all kinds of large brands (Coke, Visa, Samsung, Nike) e.g. jordan.com/liftoff

Our core product is the video creation API: send a XML description of the composition of a video, it renders a video file.

The video messaging was more mass media than HN.

Fantastic tool, can't wait to try it. I agree this is kickstarter worthy. Looks like the OSG bindings and pane makes it easy for devs to hack motion design, I wonder what will come out of that.

excellent!
