Animoto - transform your PowerPoint presentation into a slow zooming video

Animoto is a sight that allows you to create a slow zooming animated video of any series of images. I tried it on my company’s introduction presentation using the overture of Mozart’s Figaro: I do not like the wild slide transitions, the pace of transition is too high, but the slow-zoom is highly appealing. I assume that in the professional edition you can control all these features. If not, then this tool is actually only useful for use with still images without text.

I find it more useful as a pictorial medium with a limited amount of text. That is, use mainly pictures (stock photos) and diagrams, with occasional text added through the Animoto text tool, or with short Powerpoint screenshots. Use the 'extra time' option so that the textual slides appear on the screen for longer.
