What is the non linear video editing software Pinnacle Studio ?

Pinnacle Studio / Division of AVID

Pinnacle Studio

Pinnacle Studio is a non-linear video editing software application manufactured by Pinnacle Systems, a division of Avid Technology. Non-linear video editing software is an editing method which involves being able to access any frame in a video clip with the same ease as any other. This marks the end of the linear editing system, where you arrange your rushes, one after the other. Studio allows users to author video content, create VCD/DVDs with menus and burn them without the need for any additional software. It can also create multimedia files like AVI, WMV, MPEG, DivX...

Pinnacle Studio is generally included in bundled packages with various hardware like camcorders or digital capture. Pinnacle Studio started in version 1, and then version 8, 9, 10, 11,12 and 14 were then developed. Studio exists in three versions: Studio, Studio Plus, and Studio Ultimate.

Cloning someone
twice with Studio

These 3 videos have been made only with Studio 12, Hollywood Fx and VitaScene except the human body in 3D and the final signature, by Zx81. These achievements deserved congratulations. Of course these are promotional films made by a professional but they are of outstanding quality :
  • Very beautiful professional shots;
  • Very beautiful editing;
  • Very nice presentation;
  • Very good special effects;
  • Flawless voiceover.

In short it is PRO, great PRO, there's nothing wrong, the DV-FX team has been conquered and has not hesitated to share them. It often takes little to make a good film ...

I leave the final word to our readers :
"To conclude, I would say that Studio is a tool, a tool in the image of a hammer (Studio) and chisel (plugins). Imagination is in us and this will make the difference ..."

Avid Delivers New Version of Pinnacle Studio Software Family
September 10th, 2009

Avid® today announced a major update to its family of Pinnacle Studio™ video editing solutions.  Widely regarded as the industry’s leading application for home video editing*, Pinnacle Studio software now offers an even broader array of HD capabilities with a new simplified user interface that makes it easier to manage content and an unified capture/import utility for the latest formats and camcorders. Other new features include:

  • A stop-motion capture for animated and fast-motion effects.
  • New content and enhancements for Pinnacle Montage.
  • Dynamic Motion Titler tool that includes a number of new templates.
  • A new stabilizer effect – leveraging the same technology used in Avid’s professional editing products to fix shaky camera shots.

The new Pinnacle Studio meets the needs of a wide range of consumers, from novices to video enthusiasts and semi-professionals.  The family of products includes Pinnacle Studio HD, Pinnacle Studio Ultimate and Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection, which offer a complete HDV & AVCHD workflow and allows consumers to export movies to Flash, QuickTime, PS3, Nintendo Wii, Xbox, Apple iPod and more. Pinnacle Studio Ultimate and Pinnacle Ultimate Collection also offer Blu-ray authoring with motion menus.

“This version of Studio absolutely rocks – it’s probably the best advance since the move to digital.  New built-in features help to make it very easy for newcomers and hobbyists to create Hollywood-like movies and to turn their family and holiday shoots into something really special,” said Pinnacle Studio Beta tester Mike Shaw, an international award-winning amateur movie maker. Shaw also highlighted the new user interface improvements, which make it easier for editors to find their way around, and praised the enhancements of Pinnacle Montage themes, as well as the new import features that make it easier to select the source of the movies consumers wish to import.

Alec Marshall, Director of Segment Marketing for Creative Enthusiasts at Avid, said, “A growing number of both video and point-and-shoot cameras now capture high-definition video, creating a burgeoning demand for editing tools that allow for high-quality export to the web, upload to YouTube, and creation of HD files for sharing. The latest version of Pinnacle Studio makes HD editing a breeze, empowering consumers to easily grab photos and videos from video cameras, still digital cameras or camera phones and easily bring that content to life using music, Pinnacle Montage Themes, animations and effects. Once finished, they can share their masterpieces with friends and family–or the world–with direct high-quality upload to YouTube, or by simply burning a DVD.”

Customers who purchase Pinnacle Studio Ultimate software receive two bonus professional plug-ins: ToonIt and Knoll Light factory effects from video masters Red Giant. Those who purchase Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection will receive the most complete solution, including a green sheet for Chroma key effects and six highly acclaimed professional plug-ins from Red Giant:

  • Shine ultra-fast light ray effects
  • ToonIt turns video into cartoon style animation
  • Knoll Light factory creates lens flares, sunsets & more
  • Magic Bullet Looks generates advanced video styles
  • 3D stroke creates glowing lines, swirling shapes, and 3D camera effects
  • Particular smoke, explosion, and abstract effects

 

Pricing & Availability
The price of Pinnacle Studio HD, Pinnacle Studio Ultimate and Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection remains the same as previous version: US$49.99, $99.99 and $129.99, respectively.  Pinnacle Studio is compatible with Windows Vista SP2 (Both 32-bit & 64-bit), Windows XP SP3 & Windows 7.

The new Pinnacle Studio family of products will be available at the Pinnacle e-store and at e-tail and retail beginning in mid-September. Existing customers currently using Pinnacle Studio versions 9,10, 11 and 12 are eligible for  upgrade via Pinnacle’s website for $69.99 (upgrade to Pinnacle Studio Ultimate) and $89.99 (upgrade to Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection).
