Apple Unveils Final Cut Studio at NAB



Looks like Apple took advantage of the DV, HD feeding frenzy at NAB 2005 and unveiled Final Cut Studio, an HD video production suite that features Final Cut Pro 5, a huge upgrade for DV, SD, HD and film. Final Cut Studio also includes tools that complement Final Cut Pro 5 such as Soundtrack Pro, an awsome new audio editing and sound design application; Motion 2, a real-time motion graphics application with GPU accelerated; and DVD Studio Pro 4, DVD authoring software that burns high definition DVDs to the latest HD DVD specification!
