Digital Movie Creator

The all new version 2.0 Digital Movie Creator is an easy-to-use digital video camera and movie-making software package that allows children and adults to use the PC to script and star in their own feature movies. Digital Movie Creator invites children and adults to direct, film, star in and edit their own movies - all with the power of their PCs.

Be your own director with this incredibly versatile movie maker! Digital Movie Creator is the perfect gift for the budding young director in your family. It gives users the ability to shoot movies and then add special effects, titles, sounds, and even transitions between scenes with easy-to-use software. The software is fun to use, and features a simple interface that keeps the entire process of creating a movie simple and fun.

Direct a few movies, take some pictures, e-mail at will. Digital Movie Creator provides all of the functions you need in a device that's as portable and easy to handle. On the road, record up to four minutes of video and audio before downloading to your hard drive; at your PC, keep on filming or snapping away until your hard drive runs out of space. Digital Movie Creator imports AVI video files, JPG and BMP image files and WAV audio files, and exports AVI, WMV, JPG and BMP files.

Camera:
The camera is easy to hold in little hands, and operation is simple: You hold down the button and record away. There is an LCD screen that indicates how many scenes were created, and gives some indication of how much space is left. The camera has a timer mode, so you can start the recording on a delay -- which gives the camera operator the chance to step into shots. It can store up to four minutes of video that can be downloaded to a PC using the included cradle connected to the computer through a USB port. Aside from video, the camera can shoot still photographs and record sound using a built-in microphone.

Software:
On the software side, Digital Movie Creator is a real blast. Every button and mouse click results in some kind of tactile feedback with sound, so you'll always know your clicks are productive. Getting the footage you shot into the computer is a snap -- one click, actually -- and the software ships with a myriad of stock footage to spice up your films.

You can quickly add text, sound effects, transitions, even music using the drag-and-drop interface. The software is simple. There's no need to learn time codes (or even know what they are) and no complicated menus -- everything is drag and drop. When you're all done with your creation, you can view it in the Movie Creator Theatre, complete with a big screen and heads down in front. There's even a countdown like those on old movie reels. If you're pleased with your film, simply export it as an AVI file, and share it with friends.

The PC Animation Station is both an entertaining and educational gadget for children and adults alike. It can be used at the computer or away from the computer to record up to 4 minutes of sound clips for morphing or for regular use. It comes bundled with interactive sound editing software on CD-ROM that also allows for customized animations to be synched with the sounds. Once the sound and animation clips are complete, they can be converted to Electronic Postcards and emailed to friends or family.

This is a complete retail boxed package that includes the Digital Blue PC Animation Station, Sound Editing Software on CD-ROM, a belt clip, cables to connect the Animation Station to the computer, and headphones. These items are rolling out of here fast, get yours today!
