- An alternative to the SuperMac VideoSpigo is the RasterOps Colorboard
- 364 and current software, which gives you movie/sound file creation
- capabilities.
- An alternative to Adobe Premiere is PROmotion. I saw a demonstration of
- PROmotion at a Multimedia Hands-On! workshop in Markham, Ontario and I
- was quite impressed. You may obtain info about PROmotion from:
- Motion Works Corporation, 130 - 1020 Mainland Street, Vacnouver, BC
- Canada V6B 2T4, Tel: 604-685-9975, Fax: 604-685-6105.

- Now I have an elementary question! What is ResEdit? Where is there a
- North American dealer for ResEdit? Is ResEdit required if you have the
- QuickTime toolkit from APDA, the movie making capability of one's
- video card software and a movie editor such as Adobe Premiere or
- Motion Works' PROmotion? Thanks.
