Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My kids (ages 7-14) use this program and find it to be intuitive and easy to learn. The interface is inviting and flexible--allowing many forms of input and output, variations in duration of individual frames, pan and zoom, and "apply to all frames" buttons, and even chroma keying for greenscreen-type special effects. Sound is also very easy to import and stretch. I used several similar programs yet most were not as clearly laid out and only the much more costly versions would let me play around with higher HD resolution. I use a firewire camera for live & DV animation (claymation, mostly) but am starting to import folders of single 1920 by 1080 photos I take with a very basic JVC HD cam's still photo option (which I trigger w/ remote to avoid camera vibration). The importing goes flawlessly and the frames run smoothly on my 2 ghz G5 power pc Mac. Also, I had 2 amazingly quick and informative responses from the company when I had questions. You can download a demo first to make sure it's for you, but I bet it is. My son will eventually post links to his claymation movies in one of his zines
