I've been struggling to find a memorable intro to a series of videos I'm producing on walks near where I live. Nothing too over the top. A friend told me to try earth.google.com/studio/

I'd not heard of it but thought I'd give it a try.

It's remarkable. Did everything I needed and everything I wanted. If anyone hasn't tried it, give it a go. It'll consume so much time because it's addictive. I started with a simple idea and spent about two hours just changing the various attributes - and ended up using my original. If you can concentrate on a task, you can produce a 25 sec intro in little more than five mins, but it's not particularly fun that way.
