MovingPicture Producer Description |
|
| |
MovingPicture Producer is a standalone program that can easily create movie files from almost any computer. It does not require a host editor to run. This is particularly useful when your editor is not one we support, or when you wish to create shots on a different computer without tying up your costly editor.
You can quickly create AVI and QuickTime movie files using codecs you already have. The rendering option is priced at $199, but it is free if you already own the plug-in version (on the same computer).
Truly Cross Platform
Versions of MovingPicture are available for all popular platforms: Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP and Macintosh OS 8 / OS 9 / OS X . You can even offline on one platform and online on another. People routinely offline on Macintosh Avid Media Composer 7s and seamlessly online to a Windows-based Symphony system.
Offline Editing
MovingPicture Producer can also be used as an offline means for working out moves on a separate computer, such as the producers laptop. You can save the motion paths to a disk for easy import into any rendering version of MovingPicture, increasing productivity and freeing up the costly editing system. A non-rendering version is available at no charge.
Macromedia Flash Output
You can create Macromedia Flash SWF movies of moves from MovingPicture Producer. It makes compact files, usually 30-100K in size, depending on the quality desired, and is available at no charge.
Rotation Option
Adding the Rotation Option will allow you to spin your moves as well as pan and zoom, and is priced at $69 (in addition to the purchase of the MovingPicture Plug-in or Producer). You can even move the camera in 3D to skew the image.
The MovingPicture Flash driver is a free option to create Macromedia Flash movies of moves from the Windows version of MovingPicture Producer. It make compact files, usually 30-100K in size, depending on quality desired of moves on still images. The quality is not as good as with streaming media files, but they have the advantage of not needing anything special to serve them from a website, and they are many times smaller.
Once the Flash Driver is installed, MovingPicture Producer will easily create .swf movie files used by Macromedia Flash 5.0 players. Since most people have Flash on their computers already, (96% according to Macromedia) it makes it easy to embed these compact movies on websites and email.
You can create photo montages with many images and have smooth dissolves in between each image, if desired. You can also add a sound track to the movie, offering a complete multimedia experience. |
