We can announce what the prize for the best 3D video will be now. It's a brand new video editing program by "Avid" called Avid Studio Ultimate which is being released this month and it is not Pinnacle Studio - it's something brand new.

The problem with Pinnacle Studio (even tho we love and bought the latest version - Pinnacle Studio 15)- is that it only had one overlay track and one text overlay track. It's a very stable and easy to use video editing program, but sometimes when editing iClone movies, you need more tracks for sound effects, etc. Well Avid Studio Ultimate is the answer as it has unlimited tracks or if not unlimited, it has a lot. And it comes with so many special effects that are all keyframeable such as particles and lights and tooning and titling. These are special effects by Magic Bullit and Knoll Light Factory, etc. that otherwisewould cost a fortune if bought separately. Not to mention it is great for editing home video in HD and burns great DVDs. And it supports smartsound with a plugin. Here is a link for more info.

Avid Studio

The value of the prize is $169 U.S.

Good Luck to all.
