What distinguishes EduTube from other educational video sites is the focus on high quality, popular videos - typically EduTube videos are those which get several hundred to several thousand or more views a day on the hosting website (such as YouTube). Also unique to EduTube is the system for organizing videos and making them searchable.

xtranormal

 

xtranormal- a ‘Text-to-Movie’ application.  Their tag line says, “If you can type, you can make movies.”  You also need to be able to choose from a range of available characters, facial expressions,  animations, settings, sound effects, etc.  The possibilities are unlimited.

There is a helpful set of Quick Tips to guide the novice movie maker through the process.  The quality of the text-to-speech is remarkably good, as is the range of available creative options.  Movies can be shared and easily embedded elsewhere on the net.  You even have the option of re-mixing movies that have been made by other film makers.  Xtranormal’s mission is to bring movie-making to the people.

I hope there will always be a free version of this application.  There are indications that once the product is out of beta, there will be a paid premium service available.
