Pull soundbites out of a transcript and reframe your shots with B-Roller Studio, or cull a card dump with its smaller siblings B-Roller and B-Roller Lite. Add audio description to video with AudioDesc, or turn photos into described videos with PhotoDesc. Bubble Reel turns a text thread into a video, and Ruff Cutter turns interview transcripts into a documentary rough cut in minutes. Make a slideshow video from a folder of photos with Kinora, and quickly rate and pick keepers from your music with Song Reviewer. Lower Key is a broadcast character generator and is on its way soon.
