PowerDirector Pro
Introduction
Ever thought about directing your own movie? How about having all the creative
controls and being in charge of the entire editing and post-production process? Well,
today's computing technology has made all this possible for anyone who has recording
devices, capture devices, a computer, and of course, the sensational new software
application, PowerDirector.
Admittingly, video editing software is not without its drawbacks. Since the advent
of computers and its incredible growth in usage and processing speed power, video
editing software applications have taken off to astronomical heights. Yet, a great
inherent limitation, such as requiring a huge amount of disk space because of the
raw video data it captures, still remains. This is why many still choose to edit with
analog devices.
What makes PowerDirector the megastar of its industry in one quick flash is its
ability to save precious producing time because of its Smart Video Rendering
Technology (SVRT). Say goodbye to raw video data, which is usually captured in
.AVI format, and say hello to plenty of hard drive space with the MPEG and DV AVI
formats. No additional compression nor decompression is required when producing
scenes with MPEG or DV AVI formats that do not contain effects, which saves you
huge amounts of time compared to our competitors that compress and decompress
the entire movie regardless!
