The fast, fun way to tell the stories of our lives from what you and your friends have shot

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Flixlab announced today the launch of its new iPhone application that provides a fast, fun, and free way to automatically create great movies from the video clips and pictures on your iPhone, and even on your friends’ iPhones, and share them on Facebook.

Flixlab transforms the raw video clips and pictures into fun, compelling stories by choosing the best parts of clips and then adding final touches like music, transitions, and text slides. Also, Flixlab removes the hassle of sharing video clips and pictures between friends. Flixlab’s iPhone application notifies users when their friends are shooting videos and pictures at the same event and gives them the opportunity to instantly and privately share this footage with one another. Finally, Flixlab makes it easy to publish to Facebook to share with friends and family.

“Smartphones are increasingly becoming the device of choice for consumers to capture videos and photos. Yet, most people do nothing with this footage—they just leave it on their phones, or at best upload single clips,” said David Slater, CEO of Flixlab. “Our research has shown that true sharing experiences require more than just single video clips and pictures; people want to share their lives by combining multiple clips and pictures to tell a complete story. Flixlab solves this by automatically making great movies from what individuals and their friends have captured together.”

Flixlab makes mobile video effortless and fast. The founders of Flixlab include video, technology, social media, and marketing experts from companies like Sony, Adobe, Electronic Arts, and Disney. Based on their experience, as well as years of research on consumer video habits, Flixlab is able to automatically make intelligent choices about how to weave together video clips and photos, creating compelling visual narratives without requiring people to spend hours with frustrating editing software or limited apps.

“Flixlab is a social video creation and sharing platform that makes it effortless for friends to produce and share stories together,” said the Executive Chairman of Flixlab, Tim Mott. “Our vision is that video storytelling becomes an everyday part of social networking, and our mission is to make Flixlab the product for doing that.”
