ArcSoft ShowBiz

Turn your video, photo, and music files into an original movie with ShowBiz 5. Click the arrow or drag-and-drop your favorite content into the Storyboard or Timeline. Arrange them and apply effects, transitions, titles, or a voice-over. Share your show by uploading to Facebook or YouTube, exporting to a file, transferring to devices, or creating a custom disc.

Effects Galore!
Liven up your movie by adding cool effects to blur, ripple, and dissolve your photo or video clip. Fade to black and white, add geometric patterns, or use wipe transitions. Preview each addition in the Preview Window.

Add to the Storyboard
Simply drag-and-drop your media files into the Storyboard, organize them in the order you wish to play your movie, and let the fun begin! Add a title and credits, audio track, transitions, a voice-over, and effects. View imported files as resizable thumbnails or in filmstrip-style. Preview your show in the adjustable Preview Window.

Switch to Timeline mode
For more precise edits, simply switch from the Storyboard to Timeline mode with a slide of a button. In Timeline mode, you gain access to additional editing tools, multiple video, audio, and title tracks, as well as Marker and Chapter settings.

Compose with PiP
Want to add your own director's comments or create TV-wall effects? Add additional video clips to your movie and display it as a PiP (Picture-in-Picture). Choose from several display options such as a motion path, fade in/out, and resize to make it more dynamic.

Create 3D Files to Share
Create and edit 3D movies using your own 3D content. The same set of editing tools, effects, and transitions for 2D media can be applied for 3D. Share your final movie by uploading to the YouTube 3D channel, exporting as a 3D file, or burning on a DVD/AVCHD/Blu-ray Disc.

Sharing Shows
ShowBiz 5 offers several options to share your movie: share online to Facebook or YouTube, export to a file, converts to compatible files for many popular devices, including iPads, iPod Classic, iPod Touch, Sony PSP, Xbox, and PS3, or create a customized DVD, AVCHD, or Blu-ray disc. For those who wish to skip editing, Instant Share allows you to share your show directly from your PC or devices to the designated location.
