An Animoto Christmas Tribute for Cinephiles

I created this tribute to my all-time favorite film directors using the free version of Animoto.  I just dropped in pictures (all about the same size) of these great directors and picked one of their Christmas themes.  I like how it turned out.  Give it a try and see what you can come up with.  Try to give yourself a limited time to work on this project.  Animoto is a great tool and the results look very professional.

You might have wondered why a shortcut like Ctrl+D does one thing in one app or extension, while the same shortcut does something completely different in another. Hopefully, I can shed some light on a bit of the keyboard shortcuts confusion. Here are some things to consider: 1. The keyboard shortcut Ctrl+D in Google Slides or PowerPoint, for example. If you're in Google Slides and you select a graphic object, you can press  Ctrl+D  and it will duplicate the object. This should work the same way for everyone. However, if you are not selecting an object in a slide, but are just in Filmstrip mode instead, pressing  Ctrl+D  will duplicate the slide.
