Stumbled across this fun text-to-video animation tool from XtraNormal the other day, and decided to have some fun with it while exploring ideas for inexpensive, off-the-cuff marketing.
What you see here was created in a few minutes using XtraNormal's free tools. You can add a variety of gestures and body movements (I added a few oversize movements for laughs). You can pay money to remove the XtraNormal branding, customize characters and scenes, or open other controls.
Cheesy, yes, but cool possibilities with a little practice.
