I like Flixier because I can use it anywhere I go and I don`t need a lot of computer requirements but great internet connection. I like how fast it is when it comes to rendering videos and still have the opportunity to continue or start another project while waiting. I appreciate the continuous updates and adjustments because it is necessary for a video editing tool.

My main criteria for an editor was that the interface is familiar and most importantly that the renders were in the cloud and super fast. Flixier more than delivered in both. I've now been using it daily to edit Facebook videos for my 1M follower page.

What I like most about Flixier is the flexibility to edit the captions, both in terms of the text and the time where it starts and finish showing it. It gives you full control.

This online free program was extremely easy to use, implement, and integrate into my 9-12th grade tech classes. The projects turned out great and were easy to export. I liked having multiple ways to upload pictures. The software was also easy to understand.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

What is a photo animation?

A photo animation is a video or GIF that either features one photo moving around on screen or multiple photos stitched together to create an animation.

Can a picture be an animation?

Yes. GIFs, for example, are technically images, not videos (as far as our computers and phones are concerned), but they are most often used to display animations.

Can I turn a picture into a moving picture?

Of course! You can use an online editor like Flixier to animate an image and make it a little more dynamic. Our simplified keyframe system allows you to zoom in and out of the image and pan the camera around. Combine this with an intro and outro transition and some fitting music and sound effects and you can create the illusion of movement and make a dynamic short video out of a single image.
