Sony Movie Studio HD 11
The Vegas Movie Studio HD from Sony is a real-time, non-destructive video editor designed to meet all your video production needs. Any changes you make to your original files will not change the integrity of the original content, so you are free to edit and experiment without fear of losing your source files.
Use this software to add special effects, transitions, titles, and music. Zoom, rotate, and pan across photos to animate still images in your movies. Audio tools also allow you to import sound files and create custom soundtracks. The software can be used to create professional-grade productions for personal or business events.
This package supports HD production. Multiple output options are available, including direct export to popular internet video-sharing services and social networking sites. Project wizards can enhance your workflow by eliminating guesswork and expediting your progress. Tutorials included with the package facilitate learning how to use tools for your projects.
