The additionally included Reallusion iClone 2 Standard animation program creates virtual sets and people – also in HD if desired. The software package will be available from retailers everywhere from April 16, 2008, for 119.99 euros.
Camcorders for HD video are gaining an ever greater market share in the consumer market as well. Owners of AVCHD devices need the codecs for MPEG4 and Dolby Digital 5.1 for further editing. These can now be activated online free of charge in the new software package, which, in addition to the formats mentioned, also includes all the features of its sister program MAGIX Video deluxe 2008 PLUS.
The included 3D animation program Reallusion iClone 2 Standard expands the filmmaking possibilities.
Artificial sets are intended to be just as easy to assemble from the templates for your own films as digital leading actors. Using the blue-box process, the latter can be combined with your own footage in the video-editing software. A digital photograph can also be used to give them the face of a real person, allowing, for example, a Hollywood star to be integrated as a commentator in a private holiday video.
An audio post-production package with more than 500 high-quality songs, noises and samples makes it easy for the home director to give scenes appropriate sound.
Incidentally, the video edited this way can now also be uploaded directly from the program to the YouTube video portal and shown there.
