 Whitech licenses automatic video production technology : Muvee has licensed its muveeKiosk software development kit (SDK) to Whitech Software Solutions for integration with the latter's photo kiosks across Australia and New Zealand. From July this year, users of Whitech's self-service Photo.TellerT kiosks will be able to easily create emotionally engaging music videos out of their favorite digital pictures and photographs in just a few steps, and burn the finished product to DVD ready for playback. Based on the user's chosen production style, muveeKiosk automatically adds in music as well as various style effects, art graphics and transitions paced to the tempo to create the finished production, called Photo Movies.

 Automatic video production technology
"Instead of just printing the odd picture, Photo.TellerT kiosk users will now have the exciting new option of turning their digital photos into professional quality productions that look like home movies and can be played back on DVD and viewed on the big screen. Unlike slideshows, Photo Movies really bring out the emotion in your photos because of the way the software cuts everything to the beat of the music. And the best part is, it's really easy to use," said Mr. Elvin Low, muvee's Director of Business Development for North America.
Software automatically selects pictures
Whitech's Photo Movie feature gives users a choice of 10 unique production styles, including 'Action', 'Sepia Flicker' and 'MotionPix'. Each style also has its own music track. Users can choose for the express option, in which the software automatically selects pictures to make the Photo Movie, or they can manually select between 50 - 100 pictures of their choice, and the finished production will be burned onto a DVD, ready for playback. There are also plans to support Digital Still Camera video input in the Photo.TellerT kiosks in the near future.
