7 Creative Ways To Use The Motion Books
Videos are incredibly important these days which is why we at The Motion Books have invested time and effort into creating quality products to showcase your most memorable events. Simply open your video book and watch your video come to life! Here are 7 creative ways to use The Motion Books video book:
1. Showcase a slideshow of images
Couples often have lots of photos from their wedding but no way to display them. In creating a slideshow of your favorite images, they can showcase their pictures in a video book for all their family and friends to see. If you need help creating a slideshow, we suggest using Animoto or Adobe Spark to easily make a video with your favorite photos. For questions about how to add videos or photos to The Motion Books, check out our LEARN page.
2. Personal message to the bride/groom
One great wedding gift idea for a bride or groom is recording a personalized message to share with your significant other to watch on the day of their wedding! Simply upload your video to The Motion Books and deliver a sweet message to your soon to be husband or wife as they get ready for the best day of their lives. This wedding gift will definitely bring out a smile or even a tear (of joy).

What better way to share this by displaying your proposal video, engagement photo slideshow, or love story video on a beautiful video book on your wedding day!

In today’s day and age, it can be difficult to get the whole family together for an anniversary or birthday.

Imagine your loved one opening their video book to see all of their closest family and friends wishing them the best on their anniversary or birthday.

Hello,
Can I download wedding photos and a highlight video into this video book?
The Motion Books
Yes. You can load videos and photos onto the video book. Videos will always play first followed by a slideshow of the photos. We recommend adding a music track so the slideshow has background music. Let us know if you have any other question, we are here to help.

Hello, I am interested in gifting this to my parents for their anniversary! Once the video is uploaded, how long does it take to ship to Denver, Colorado?

Most orders ship the next day. Delivery is about 4 days for Colorado, but we have expedited options for even overnight.

Do you have books that hold pictures? I would like to create a book for my grandson’s year of baseball.

Hey Melinda, our video books do hold images/pictures. So you can simply copy images to the video book drive and they will play as a basic slideshow.

Does it play sound as well?
The Motion Books
Yes, of course. It does have built-in audio. So all videos on the video album will play with sound.

I’m old, and my wedding video in on VHS, can that be converted into something like this?
The Motion Books
Hey Christine, unfortunately, we do not offer a video digitizing service at this point. However, there are many services like Walmart that offer this service. You can check it out here:https://www.dvdwalmart.com/services-and-pricing/videotape-transfer.

Hi. I love this. I have one professional wedding video and lots of other short videos taken by friends. Do I have the option of uploading multiple different videos to one book?
