Here’s why you bought that digital camera!

NEW StillMotion Creator PE

Now Multimedia slide shows, CD-Rom & Web pages can be created with one click

 

 

Washington, DC – January 17, 2003– ImageMatics Corp., an award-winning multimedia software developer here, has launched StillMotion Creator Personal Edition (PE) to personal digital camera users as well as businesses that want to easily create compelling image intensive presentations of their product and service offerings.  The StillMotion Creator PE is powerful multimedia software that maximizes the potential of digital photography to the broadest user base. The simple interface and point-and-click environment provide both photographers and business executives a wide range of visual effects and output media.

 

“We made presenting and sharing your images easy and universal,” said Bill Strum, president and CEO of ImageMatics Corp.  “Now, you can send animated slide shows to family and friends, or distribute presentations via e-mail, CD-Rom or the web, all from the same source with a single menu click.”

 

StillMotion PE’s ability to have individual soundtracks and text labeling (text and audio captioning) associated with each slide addresses instructional and tutorial applications.  It also helps companies meet ADA federal regulations.  Early adopters of the product include real-estate brokers who now have an inexpensive and simple alternative to create royalty-free virtual tours and support a $100 million annual real estate Internet presentation market.  School systems are creating educational slide shows.

 

With StillMotion PE, a user can create a Web page instantly, an auto installing screen saver, an auto-play CD-ROM, output SWF files for web and Flash applications and generate a self-extracting slide show that can be e-mailed with its own intrinsic player.  Screen savers and other on-screen multimedia presentations are simplified for easy sharing and swapping of photos, or to create visual tours.  ImageMatics puts no restrictions on commercial use of its output so the functionalities are ideal for either home use or business needs.

“Anyone with visual information to convey will be able to make presentations that educate, persuade or entertain the product simply works,” said Strum.  “Because of its ease of use and low cost, $49.95 MSRP, digital camera enthusiasts are also creating family albums of trips and events that rival those available from the pros.  StillMotion Creator PE is a creative imaging tool that can be successfully wielded by both professional and personal users.”

 

The product sales to multimedia producers are also brisk – with customers including television stations, Fortune 500 and government agencies that need multimedia storyboards but may have only limited resources.

 

“ImageMatics listened to all the user requests they received for a simpler program focused solely on slide show creation and the result is the new StillMotion Creator PE (Personal Edition) program,” said industry analyst Dave Etchells from ‘Imaging Resource’.”

 

Strum added: “We are pleasantly surprised by the business applications:  trade show presentations or virtual shows, merchandising, in-store demonstrations, real estate tours, and of course, professional photographers are finding the product indispensable.”
