Say “Cheesecake”!

During the February break I decided to bake a cheesecake in my Instant Pot and I was very impressed with how well it turned out. I had expected this creation to be a total failure as I have NEVER made any type of cheesecake in my life. I chose to bake a Reese Peanut Butter Cup cheesecake as that is one of mine, as well as my boyfriend’s, favourite chocolate bars.

While creating the cheesecake, I made sure to take photos along the way. I wanted to be able to put these photos together into a video clip and since I am already fairly competent with iMovie, I decided to find another source to use. I searched “app that turns pictures into video” in Google and it came up with multiple articles. The one website I clicked on had five apps for exactly what I needed. I chose to use Magisto, which happened to be the first suggested app.

This app looks very sleek when you use it. It has a lot of features and ways that the app can automatically create the video you want. It is also able to be used on your laptop as well as a mobile device. The app has many “styles” to choose from. I chose to use food, as that’s what pertained to the video that I created. After choosing the style, you are able to choose from multiple media types, including instrumental. Then, if desired, you can begin to add text to your pictures as well as decide the order of when you want each picture to appear in the video.

I find this app super simple to use and would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to put their pictures into a video format. I believe that you can also add small sections of video into it as well, if you wanted to use photos and video! The only downside is that the paid version of this app is anywhere from $5 – $35 a month, depending on if you want it for personal use or business use. 

Overall, I will for sure be baking another cheesecake in my Instant Pot again at some point as it was such an easy process! In terms of Magisto, I would love to use it again for future video projects, but I don’t know if I would ever use it enough to pay for it monthly, although for someone who was making a lot of videos this would be an amazing, simple tool to use! 

Here is the video I created!
