Canopus Imaginate

With Imaginate, you can breathe new life into still images and photographs, transforming them into movies that can be used to bring history to life, create montages, motion menus, or anything else the video professional can imagine. Imaginate's intuitive interface and timeline features, along with realtime preview, make the design process fast. Combined with comprehensive camera control, Imaginate can create precise motion paths and sweeping, cinematic effects.

See things from a new perspective
Canopus takes the incorporation of stills and photographs into video projects to new levels with its latest leading-edge software, Imaginate. Imaginate allows video professionals to take photographs and high-resolution stills and convert them into full-fledged animated movies. The program is completely intuitive and utilizes an advanced timeline and camera control scheme so users can quickly integrate Imaginate into their workflow. With Imaginate, editors can pan, zoom, rotate, skew, and combine all of these movements to create cinematic effects that are not bound by 2 dimensions. Imaginate functions either as a standalone product or as an Adobe Premiere plug-in, with the ability to drop your Imaginate files directly onto the Premiere timeline for editing and includes alpha channel support for compositing effects.

Versatility and usability
This product is perfect for videographers, documentary directors, DVD authoring and creation of motion menus, video annuals, video montages that have much more than just still after still, or anything else you can Imaginate. Your video projects will have an even more professional look and feel with the advanced control Imaginate allows over photograph and still manipulation. For added functionality, Imaginate supports a large number of source files, including Adobe Photoshop (.psd) files, to give you maximum flexibility and a host of options for your projects.
