MAGNOLIA ORGANIZATION RELEASES
MAGNOLIA FOR DIGITAL MEDIA
-----------------------------------------------
Magnolia Organization today releases the beta version of
"Magnolia for Digital Media". It is the first time that
film, image and sound data can be edited directly in a web
browser. Magnolia For Digital Media thus significantly
speeds up and simplifies the processing and management of
digital media data.
Knowledge transfer between university and business
Magnolia for Digital Media is derived from ’magnoliaQT’, a
thesis under the supervision of Thomas Martin in connection
with a three-year Interaction Management study at
Hyperwerk/FHBB. It was created in collaboration with experts
of obinary ag and Anthony Rogers, the co-author of
QuickTime at Apple and Head of Science at the London
multimedia agency tomato.
-----------------------------------------------
WHAT CAN MAGNOLIA DO FOR DIGITAL MEDIA?
-----------------------------------------------
Film data can be cut, scaled and compressed directly in the
browser and published in various interpretations and
formats. As is customary with Magnolia, handling is
extremely simple. It is possible to cut images per dragging
an image cutout and setting cut markers for sound or film
data by mouse click.
-----------------------------------------------
WHAT ARE THE SPECIAL ADVANTAGES OF MAGNOLIA FOR DIGITAL
MEDIA?
-----------------------------------------------
Magnolia for Digital Media is envisaged on one hand for the
management of marketing and sales material, company
presentations and online training. Magnolia for Digital
Media on the other hand permits online-publication of
multi-media data in less than no time, bringing decisive
speed benefits when reporting on current events. Finally
Magnolia for Digital Media benefits all who work
professionally with digital media and would like to publish
films, images or sound online.
Magnolia Content Management Suite: flexible foundation
The foundation of Magnolia for Digital Media is the Open
Source Content Management System Magnolia of the Swiss
obinary ag. Magnolia for Digital Media thereby demonstrates
impressively the expandability of the Magnolia Suite, which
already covers Web Content Management, document management,
business process navigation and workflow-supported
electronic forms.
Magnolia for Digital Media combines tried and tested
software packages, functions and expansions to a flexible,
simple system. The linking of Apple's QuickTime Technology
(basis for the MPEG-4 standard) on the server permits
browser-based preparation of the multi-media contents with
marketed browsers. An online demo version is available for
those interested: www.magnoliaQT.info
Magnolia For Digital Media is available immediately and free
of charge.
