Adobe Video Collection: Let's Get Started...

Posted by Philip Colmer in "SOFTWARE" @ 10:00 AM



Product Category: Video production software
Manufacturer: Adobe
Where to Buy: Adobe Store or Amazon (Standard collection or Professional collection - affiliate links)
Price: Standard - $999, Professional - $1,499
System Requirements: Intel Pentium III 800MHz or faster, Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 1, 256MB to run any one application, 2GB free disc space to install all applications, 11GB or larger dedicated large-capacity 7200RPM UDMA 66 IDE or SCSI hard disk or array for ongoing work, 1280x1024 32-bit colour video display adapter, DVD-ROM drive, compatible DVD record for DVD creation, stereo sound card, OHCI-compatible IEEE 1394 interface for DV.

Pros:
  • A tool for all parts of the video production process;
  • Real manuals included;
  • Value for money when bought as a collection as opposed to separate products.
Cons:
  • System requirements are quite demanding;
  • Could be expensive as a starting point - beginners might want to start by buying the individual products;
  • Only After Effects is available for Macintosh owners - this should be considered as a Windows-only product.
Summary:
The Adobe Video Collection delivers a comprehensive integrated toolset for Windows based video production and, considering the separate cost of each item, the bundle does represent good value for money. There is certainly a lot to get your teeth into :D
