Hi,

I have always been a huge fan of adobe but currently I am in a bad situation and I need your suggestion.

I am now put incharge of the video editing department, where our company make videos and send it to clients. It's a multinational company so imagine the professional customer.

The Videos will include Power Point presentation capture with Audio and a huge amount of Video Camera movies.

Our Company Manager suggesting Camtasia, Sony but I heard Adobe has a very good product as well.

Kindly suggest what Adobe Product and Version can support my requirement and also is it better and easy to operate than the above two products.

Thanks...

Waiting for your honest replies...

    Correct answer John T Smith

    You may produce a MOVIE with Premiere Pro + Encore, or Premiere Elements all-in-one, but since Powerpoint (any computer content) is not part of the DVD specification, neither version of Premiere will do what you want

    The Premiere forums are at http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere for more reading

    Macromedia Director http://www.adobe.com/products/director/ may do what you want

    But... do be aware that no set top DVD player is going to work with computer content... those are only for a movie DVD... so you will need to use a computer for a disc with mixed content

    I'm aware that this forum is for the forums, but where exactly is the correct place to ask a question like this?

    The links I provided upstream are correct, for the two different types of content... but that is only if you already know the products

    Since the OP did not know, and was asking a general question, I provided links to the two correct areas

    I have no idea if the OP has gone to either link

    @Smith, John and Hunt.

    Thanks alot, I was not expecting such a comprehensive and awesome replies.

    Thanks alot..

    Received a call from Manager and we will be using Two Technologies :), PowerPoint Capture will be done by Camtasia as we are already using it and have recently upgraded from 6 to 7.


    @John I am abit confused on your last statement. Can you please explain it abit.


    Let me clarify more my requirements:


    We will be shooting on a 720P Camera or Cam Corders and I guess it's HD.
    We will be conducting Interviews and more Class room trainings on a White Board.

    We will capture that and remove the noisy or unwanted part and then distribute it online as well as on CD's or DVD's.

    I guess it's pretty much simple.

    So please give me your Final suggestions:
    Director or Premiere Pro + Encore or Premiere Elements.

    As John points out, PowerPoint is not quite ready for PrPro, but is getting closer. One user, Chuck McIntyre, IIRC, recently posted to the PrPro forum on the new PowerPoint, and how much better it has gotten. Still, with a bit of planning, and Exporting in PowerPoint, one can assemble a video around a presentation.

    With the mentioned combo of PrPro + Encore (bundled together), one can produce DVD-Videos, or BD (Blu-ray Discs). One can also do fairly sophisticated Audio editing, but for more heavy-duty work, either a PrPro suite with Soundbooth, or the full-featured, pro app., Audition (coming to the Mac soon), will work well, and you can link to it from PrPro.

    Good luck, and we'll see you in the PrPro forum.

    And another Point. If any of your DVD's are to used on the Mac Platform Please note Auto Run has never been allowed on Mac Platform In the Past and perhaps even now other platforms allowed auto run which would/will allow all types of Malware to be installed run them. Steve Jobs ans other at apple made a concious decision to not allow auto run.
