What is a travel video maker?
A travel video maker joins your trip photos and clips into one video with music. In Pictory you upload them, drag them into the order of the trip and click Generate Video. Then you add a track and a few captions and download the travel video.
The whole trip in a few minutes. Each photo shows for 5 seconds unless you change it, and the estimated length updates as you add more. JPG, PNG and BMP photos sit alongside your video clips.
Use it for a trip recap to send to friends, or for a destination video if travel is your business. It runs in your browser and is free to try. For photos alone, see the slideshow maker.
