PhotoMotion by East Coast Pixels, Inc. ($0.99, 11.9 MB): From the creators of PhotoToaster and TitleFX arrives this cinematic slideshow maker to give your photo presentations new life. Think about what causes a video to be more captivating than a static image. Sometimes, it's because we can see more, but mostly there's the suspense and surprise generated by a select perspective. For example, the scene begins showing the family cat laying adorably on the pillow, although, suddenly the view widens and you soon notice that he actually fell asleep next to little Sophia, adding extra charm to the moment. This and similar visual tricks is exactly what PhotoMotion allows you to do easily and on-the-go. Just start a new project and select the photos you feel belong in the same showcase, customize, and share. The app permits rearranging the lineup order, applying titles to each image, modifying start and end points of animations, adding background music, duplication, and deletion plus features two aspect ratio and three quality choices from 640-by-640 to 1080p HD, eight font styles, and direct export to Photos, Mail, Messages, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, Tumblr, or YouTube.
