Biteable

Principal function(s): Image and video editing

Biteable is an online video-making tool that allows users to create and edit videos easily. It is designed to simplify the video creation process, making it accessible to a wide range of users for various purposes. Users can choose between a range of templates, animations, and stock footage to create video content. Biteable is designed for a broad audience. Users do not need advanced linguistic skills to use Biteable, as it primarily focuses on visual and multimedia content creation. Biteable is a company based in Australia and is thus not oot open-source, but a proprietary platform. Evaluation: Biteable is a valuable and helpful tool for educators and learners since it streamlines and simplifies video-making. That is, users can easily create videos by using pre-made templates to put together a series of scenes and add text, colour, music, etc. It can be useful for students to create multimedia presentations, visual reports, and educational videos, enhancing their learning experience. For educators, Biteable can aid the process of creating educational materials, such as instructional videos, animated explanations, and interactive content. All in all, Biteable's ease of use can help both educators and learners to take control of content creation. In this manner, they can explore and experiment with video-making independently, fostering autonomous learning and creativity.
