Description
Spark Video edits users' voices, adds backing music, and then automatically generates animated motion graphics synchronizing the narration and corresponding visuals, dynamically adjusting the length of animations to smoothly align with each line of the story.[5] It includes motion graphics themes that apply custom typography, color palettes, and digital effects and animation designed using Adobe After Effects, such as motion blur, drop shadows, zooming and panning, 3D, camera motion, textures, and animated masks.[6]
The software claims to allow non-professionals to create animated narration-driven short videos “in minutes.”[7] Videos can be shared via a custom web page, email, SMS, Facebook, Twitter, or exported as H.264 video files.[citation needed]
Spark Video includes several features intended to scaffold storytelling and media literacy concepts.[8] These include a built-in searchable library of Creative Commons licensed vector images and photographs, automatic tracking and generation of attributions, a library of music organized by emotional sentiment, and story guides with narrative story structure prompts (such as a simplified “Hero’s Journey” storyboard) to help users learn about narrative structure.[9]
