Creating a Video Ad is free. Just register and get started. You can explore our many different templates, upload your photos and video, and try different music from our music library all for free. In order to distribute your Video Ad, you will need to purchase a SpotMixer plan. With a SpotMixer plan you can easily distribute your Video Ad to Google AdWords, You Tube, or post it on your own website using our embed code. Additionally you can download an MPEG 4 (.mp4) of your Video Ad, a format accepted by most Local and online directory sites. With a SpotMixer plan you can make as many Video Ads as you want and change them as much as your want in that 30-day time frame. SpotMixer offers different plan options.

A Template is professionally designed set of transitions, effects and text fields put to music. When combined with your photos, video and text, the result is a very professional Video Ad. We have over 200 templates to choose from so there is something for everyone.

Until now, there have been only two ways to produce a Video Ad — either find and hire a local videographer or buy and learn complicated software. The services of a professional videographer are more expensive than SpotMixer and you won't have direct control over the final results. If you were to attempt to make the same quality montage with computer software, you would face considerably greater expense, learning time, and potential storage issues on your computer.

Our service is supported by most major browsers. For the best results when creating and viewing a Video Ad, we recommend that you use the latest version of Firefox or Internet Explorer. You can download the latest versions of these browsers by visiting:
