Reviews
"...contains a neat iMovie plug-in and curriculum based iDVD themes that are simple to use out of the box and produce very professional results. The iMovie plug-in is able to make a huge impact on a DV project by bringing data handling to life and allowing pupils to recreate real television.
The two packs released so far have been very well received by educators."
