Camcorder:
The camcorder is easy to hold and operation is simple: You hold down the button and record away. There
is an LCD screen that indicates how many scenes were created, and gives some
indication of how much space is left. The camera has a timer mode, so you can
start the recording on a delay -- which gives the camera operator the chance to
step into shots. It can store up to four minutes of
video that can be downloaded to a PC using the included cradle connected to the
computer through a USB port. Aside from video, the camera can shoot still
photographs and record sound using a built-in microphone.
Software:
On the software side,
American Idol Digital Camcorder is a real blast. Every button and mouse click results in some kind of
tactile feedback with sound, so you'll always know your clicks are productive.
Getting the footage you shot into the computer is a snap -- one click, actually
-- and the software ships with a myriad of stock footage to spice up your
production.
You can quickly add text, sound
effects, transitions, and music using the drag-and-drop interface. The software
is simple. There's no need to learn time codes (or even know what they are) and
no complicated menus -- everything is drag and drop. When you're all done with
your creation, you can view it in the Movie Creator Theatre, complete with a big
screen and heads down in front. There's even a countdown like those on old movie
reels. If you're pleased with your video or movie, simply export it as an AVI file, and
share it with friends.
