We have been very busy adding new products and vendors. Here is a list of some of our most exciting new additions!!!

Applied Magic Screenplay http://www.videoguys.com/screenplay.html The Screenplay is a stand-alone non-linear editing system with real-time effects. It supports composite, S-Video and DV. This makes Screenplay an ideal choice for educational, corporate and event videography. Just in time for NAB they have announced $1000 list price reductions across the board. That brings the ScreenplayDV w/ 9GB of storage down to $3495!!

ICE Blue Ice for After Efftects http://www.videoguys.com/ice.html ICE makes an accelerator board called BlueICE. This board provides Adobe After Effects users with massively accelerated rendering. As a result, working with AE is now much more productive. We offer many different ICE bundles, some include the FULL AE Production software, others are for AE users who want to add the ICE board and become more productive. ICE also offers acceleration to many of the top selling AE plug-ins such as Cinelook, Final Effects and Commotion. Our ICE boards work in both NT workstations and Mac G3 & G4s. ICE has just introduced and SDI upgrade board that will provide AE users with uncompressed SDI video output for previewing and recording your work.

Media100 iFinish http://www.videoguys.com/media100.html We are very excited to announce that we are now carrying the Media 1000 iFinish v20DV & v40 non-linear editing solutions for NT. These boards provide the professional editor with an editing environment that is extremely productive. The best part about iFinish is the system can grow with you as your business grows. iFinish is also the first non-linear editing tool designed for today's multimedia video producer. iFinish lets you output streaming video files directly from the timeline. It is very tightly integrates with Terran Media Cleaner software, our top recommendation for producing streaming video. Media 100 has just introduced a real-time MPEG2 encoding board for iFinish. This hardware comes bundled with Sonic DVDit SE, our top choice for authoring interactive DVD content.

Sonic Solutions DVDit! SE http://www.videoguys.com/dvdit.html One of the hottest technologies now becoming affordable is MPEG2 video and DVD authoring. DVDit! SE is simply the best authoring package around for under $1000!!! With DVDit! SE you can create a DVD with up to 10 different menus. Better still, DVDit! SE includes MPEG2 conversion software so you can add MJPEG or DV or any other avi file to your DVD. We also like the miniDVD creation feature of DVDit!. This lets you create a 20-minute DVD on a CD ROM that can be played back as a DVD on any DVD equipped computer. While these disks can't be played on a set-top home theater DVD player, they are burned using a standard CD-R or CD-RW.
