Pinnacles studiohowto dot com Offers Camcorder Owners Tips to Make Better Holiday Videos27 December 2004
Pinnacle Systems(R), Inc. is responding to the need to
educate video-hungry consumers with a special website, http://www.studiohowto.com.
Created for novice camcorder users and others interested in adding special
touches to their home movies, each lesson in studiohowto.com offers
suggestions on taking better video shots, editing tips, a sample storyboard
and a finished video. The tutorials present many of the tools found in
Pinnacle Studio and Studio Plus movie-making software for PCs, which allow
users to easily create great home movies, adding titles, transitions and even
DVD menus.
Just in time for the holidays, Pinnacle has introduced a family-themed
lesson covering several video editing "basics" such as master shots and
cutaways, capturing video to a user's hard drive, adding scene transitions and
fixing shaky or dark video clips using Pinnacle Studio one-touch tools.
According to research from The Diffusion Group, a Dallas-based research
consultancy specializing in consumer use of digital technologies, more than
85% of digital camcorder owners will use their cameras in the next few weeks
to record important family events such as Christmas and New Year's
celebrations. "Capturing holiday celebrations on digital video is one of the
primary reasons why many American households buy a digital camcorder in the
first place," said Michael Greeson, President of The Diffusion Group.
"Pinnacle Studio is movie-making software that lets camcorder owners
create finished movies using their PC," said Tanguy Leborgne, director of
product marketing for Pinnacle Systems. "While Studio offers hundreds of
professional effects and impressive tools such as one-touch color correction,
it is known for its ease-of-use and is ideal for beginners and video
enthusiasts alike. Pinnacle Systems also offers hardware that connects
virtually any camcorder -- analog or digital -- to the PC for capturing and
editing with its award-winning Studio software line."
