muvee's Automatic Video Production with New magicMoments Technology Lets You Highlight Must-Have Video Moments
Posted by Jason Dunn in "NEWS" @ 01:00 AM
"muvee Technologies, the pioneer in automatic video production, is proud to launch the new muvee autoProducer 3 with revolutionary magicMoments™ technology for fast and easy home movie-making. magicMoments now gives users more control over the content of their muvee productions by letting them quickly highlight their ”must-have‘ shots for inclusion in the final production with a simple Thumbs-Up button. Shots that must be excluded get the Thumbs-Down.
In minutes, muvee autoProducer takes care of all the editing by combining the chosen highlights with automatically-selected scenes from the remaining video footage. The software also automatically adds in effects and transitions that are carefully selected to give the final production a professional touch and "style". muvee autoProducer comes with 24 built-in styles, which range from kids‘ styles featuring cartoon overlays, to slow-motion romantic ones with long fades. Users can instantly change the look and feel of their video productions simply by applying different styles. Additional plug-in styles can also be downloaded from muvee‘s styleLabs at www.muvee.com/website/stylelabs.php, where new styles are released every week.
Dr. Pete Kellock, founder and CEO of muvee Technologies said, —We‘re very excited about introducing magicMoments to everyone, as this new technology now lets you make videos just the way you want œ automatically. muvee autoProducer‘s Artistic Intelligence does a good job of automatically picking out the best shots from raw footage, but we couldn‘t always guarantee that your wedding kiss was included in the final production, or that your ex-girlfriend‘s face was excluded. magicMoments addresses this, so that users can now quickly mark the most crucial shots, and leave the remaining footage to muvee‘s intelligent auto-editing abilities. It‘s just as quick and simple to use, but the results are even more satisfying.“
Designed to be fast, easy and fun, the award-winning muvee autoProducer is a user-friendly PC application that enables anyone to automatically turn dull home videos and pictures into professional-looking productions. Users simply add in their videos and pictures, choose some music, and apply a creative editing style. Within minutes, muvee autoProducer analyzes the footage to pick out key scenes, before automatically cutting these video highlights to the music, with cool effects and transitions synchronized to the beat.
muvee autoProducer 3 with magicMoments is now available in English at ⁄ 49,95 from www.muvee.com. muvee Technologies will release this version of the software in 16 other languages in May 2004.
