Ulead DVD Workshop, a new DVD authoring software program for both professional and aspiring videographers, won two awards during the recent international Computex show in Taiwan.
A program that provides precise control over DVD menu design while presenting limitless creative options as well as leading-edge technologies, Ulead DVD Workshop won the "2002 Best Choice of Computex" award in the software category as well as Eurotrade Magazine's "Best of Taiwan's Best" award.
Developed by leading image editing, video editing and web graphics software developer Ulead Systems Inc, DVD Workshop is distributed in SA by JSE-listed Square One Solutions Group.
Following its release three months ago, DVD Workshop has earned a steady stream of professional praise. Computer Video magazine of the UK bestowed an "Editors' Choice" award on the program, while Computer Shopper gave it a "Most Desired" award and a five-star rating. In the US, PC Magazine dubbed DVD Workshop "the new sheriff in town" in a feature comparison against leading opposition products.
Lisa Jackson, Square One's divisional manager responsible for Ulead products, says DVD Workshop allows content creators to author DVD menus that match their vision without requiring them to spend hundreds of hours and many thousands of rands.
"The heart of Ulead DVD Workshop lies in the advanced, flexible menu authoring features. Full of professional design tools, the program offers high-end effects such as motion backgrounds, buttons and scene thumbnails. Authors can create dynamic, Hollywood-style DVDs that contain customised video-scene buttons and specified actions and highlight colours."
