Action Movie FX by Bad Robot Interactive

Action Movie FX is an app for the iPhone that is pure entertainment. When using this app, you magically become a special effects film director. You begin by choosing a special effects scene (you can buy additional scenes) and create a short video recording of a scene where you want the effect to take place. You then decide on the timing of the effect (when the disaster or effect happens), render the file, and you're done. Very entertaining. The app is free, but you will definitely want to pay for some added special effects. The developers continue to issue updates since its inception in 2011.

Vintagio by MacFun LLC

Formerly known as Silent Movie Director, Vintagio is a great way to create old time movies. The app comes with an Express Mode and a Pro Mode. With Express Mode, you can import a video and add soundtracks, adjust the speed, and choose an effects like Classic Sepic or 80's Disco Blast. With the Pro features, you can title your project, add photos and titles, and edit your project in a timeline view. Vintagio was great during the early stages of iOS app development, but it not longer is available for today's operating systems.

Express Mode

Flixlab by Flixlab, Inc

Flixlab was one of the most convenient ways to make movies. The user interface was simple and easy to use. To begin, you selected content form your library or shot live video footage. You chose from a wide variety of themes and soundtracks. With the latter, you could choose songs from your music library or choose from Flixlab's wide song selection organized by genre. You could then title your movie and tag friends who appear in your video. The movie rendered in the background and Flixlab alerted you when the video was done.
