Hi CAT, AlamDV is great. You can create various effects with it like shots, explosions, dust clouds and even Matrix styled Bullet time etc. The good news is: it exists for PC too. The bad news: its not freeware at all. It costs 50 pounds. But believe me its worth it! Sascha

Latest Digit mag (issue 52, Sept 02) has Strata Videoshop 4 for the mac. The previous Digit mag (issue 51, Aug 02) had Newtek's Aura DV for windows. www.digitmag.co.uk

I've only ever seen 1 copy of Digit anywhere & that had the cd missing so I didn't buy it :( Rob

I ordered my sole copy of Digit online from the website, and received it through the mail in less than a week. Not bad for overseas shipping.
