FotoMagico 3.2 Public Beta Released

Boinx Software has released a Public Beta of FotoMagico 3.2, bringing the gold standard of animated stills to video editors. The new version of the award-winning visual storytelling software includes a plug-in to render slideshows directly in Final Cut Pro/Express, Motion and After Effects in pristine quality and with unprecedented ease-of-use. FotoMagico 3.2 will be a free update to all current 3.x license owners.

"Thousands of professional photographers already rely on FotoMagico 3 Pro to easily turn their images into compelling stories," says Oliver Breidenbach, CEO of Boinx Software. "Working with our friends at Noise Industries, we integrated FotoMagico 3 Pro right into the Final Cut Pro workflow, making it easy for video professionals to use it."

FotoMagico 3 Pro for Final Cut Pro Users
With the new version 3.2 of FotoMagico 3 Pro, animating stills in Apple Final Cut Pro, Motion or Adobe After Effects becomes an easy and joyful task - no more tedious fiddling with keyframes. Easily create interesting intros, animated backgrounds or B-roll from photos - even add some titles quickly and effortlessly - and place the FotoMagico slide show directly into your Final Cut Pro project.


That power now comes to video editors courtesy of Boinx Software and FxFactory by Noise Industries, the leading provider of plugins for Final Cut Pro, Motion and After Effects. FotoMagco 3.2 is the first version that installs a QuartzComposer plugin and the new FxPack from Noise Industries making it possible for FotoMagico 3 Pro customers to render slideshows directly in Final Cut Pro/Express, Motion and After Effects.

Other Improvements
Screensavers created with FotoMagico 3 Pro are now 64-bit compatible and therefore work with Snow Leopard. In addition to that, many small issues have been addressed and the setup assistant has been improved to seemlessly install the Aperture and Final Cut Pro plugins. The FotoMagico Remote for iPhone can now also be used with FotoMagico 3 Home.
