Dear [FullName]
now Macworld Expo with all its exciting news and stories is over again. But you need not be bored - Boinx Software has exciting news even after Macworld!
Know any good New Year's resolutions? Hermann plans some more work and so do we. Let's get started with FotoMagico 2. The beta test has begun and we are looking for brave souls to give it a spin and provide feedback. It's going to be a huge year for FotoMagico, now that it is even used by Hollywood directors!
Also this January: a new look for iStopMotion with version 1.10.3 and a report from the hugely successfull Create at BETT booth.
Enjoy!
Your Boinx Software Team:
Oliver, Achim, Vera, Michael, Florian, Peter, Werner & Stefan.
FotoMagico goes Hollywood!
Victor Salva may be known for his undisputable contribution to the movie industry. What he is probably less known for is his enthusiasm for Boinx's award-winning software FotoMagico, which Salva uses in a most interesting and quite individual way: To present future film projects to Hollywood studio bosses and decision makers. In fact, so creative and skilful is he in operating FotoMagico that upon viewing his conceptual art presentations you almost find yourself in a movie theater right away, instinctively reaching for Coke and popcorn, leaning back and enjoying the show. He also used FotoMagico to create the Making-of on the DVD release of his latest movie, "Peaceful Warrior" with Scott Mechlowicz, Nick Nolte and Amy Smart. Read more...
FotoMagico Tutorials by Rick Rosen
Almost 5 hours of video tutorials by photographer Rick Rosen explain everything from first steps to creating slideshows for the web and DVD. A great resource if you want to get more out of FotoMagico. Contact Rick through his website for more details.
iStopMotion at BETT 2007
At this year’s BETT show in London, our friends from Cleveratom showed off iStopMotion at the Create at BETT booth. They were helped by students from King Harolds School: “As ever, King Harold School pupils were brilliant! Their enthusiasm, infectious energy and determination to succeed meant that the stand never had a dull moment”, writes Hal Maclean. Digitalcreativity.org reports: “At the other end of the stand young people worked to demonstrate the brilliant iStopMotion animation software and the potential for using creative technology in the classroom. iStopMotion is so simple and easy to use, yet so powerful too. A wonderful piece of innovative software.”
