the iMoveTM Viewer
iMove's Viewer transforms the video experience available to Internet users from a passive to an active experience. Multiview Interactive Video engages the audience and changes its expectations of what a video experience should be.
User Experience
In a recent focus group study performed by a national market research company, users were offered a chance to compare Multiview Interactive Video with traditional video formats. The study confirmed three essential points:
- Given a choice, users will seek out websites that have Multiview Interactive Video.
- Compared to traditional video formats, users will spend up to ten times longer using and exploring the information in Multiview Interactive Video.
- The camera views and embedded interactive hotspots provide an opportunity for more information and an enhanced learning experience.
With the iMove format, a user can select camera views, control playback speed and direction, rewind and freeze frames, and delve into audio, text and website links that appear in the video as hotspots. Video thumbnails give the user a smaller view of each camera angle available to watch the video. Users can select different camera angles by selecting the video thumbnails.
iMove anticipates offering this software in the form of customized plug-ins to standardize streaming software from RealNetworks, Microsoft, and Apple.
