MAGIX MovieShow Maker
Present your most beautiful photo memories in
unusual slideshow styles! You will find temples
with anything from silent movie to music video,
which, in combination with your photos will help
you create a slideshow in no time at all. Included
in the templates are fades, effects, decorations,
sounds and background music, which will help

Animated decorative elements
In the Internet you can find countless animated graphics that you can now use as deco elements for
your photos. The size, position and color can be adjusted according to your wishes just like with any
other decoration element in our giant Media Pool.
Looking good in any format
Whether horizontal or portrait, your photos fit
perfectly into the image flow and will receive the
background color and decorations of your choice
to avoid black bars.
NEW: Automatic panorama functions
Exciting all around: Up to six individual photos can
be automatically combined into a great panoramic
image. The software takes care of exposure and
corrects any lens and perspective distortions. The
panorama tool can be used for any other photo
montage in order to create exciting widescreen
images.
During viewing, a virtual camera movement glides
over your widescreen images, so that you can
view the photo in detail as a screen-filling
impression.
Easily optimize sound and image
You can optimize every photo and every sound
recording. The image optimization ranges from
quick optimizations, for example brightness and
contrast, to color substitution for creating moody
pictures in all shades of color.
Spoken commentary can be noticeably improved
through stereo and room simulation effects.
Declicker and Dehisser help remove clicks and
noises from voiceovers.
The right sound for every mood:

Without music, your effect-filled slideshow is only
half-finished. Music gives the slideshow that
oomph – a real movie needs a soundtrack! With
the MAGIX Soundtrack Maker you can dub your
pictures thematically with various emotions within
one musical genre. Individual sections of the
slideshow will be differently accented: from
mysterious to happy, completely as you wish.
