Singapore –– August 11, 2003 – muvee Technologies, the pioneer in intelligent and truly automatic video production, is pleased to announce its latest collaboration with V One Multimedia. The *award-winning muvee autoProducer DVD Edition will be bundled with V One’s new Snazzi* DV.AVIO video editing solution, which is due to be launched in August this year.

Snazzi* DV.AVIO is a new video editing solution that allows users to capture both DV-AVI and MPEG-2 formats from both DV and AV sources. This fully complements the smart automatic video editing capabilities of muvee autoProducer to give users total flexibility and versatility in producing their home videos. Snazzi* DV.AVIO allows users to playback their finished productions to TV, record to VCR tape, or transfer back to DV camcorder. An earlier version of muvee autoProducer is also currently bundled with Snazzi* III PCI, Snazzi* III USB2, Snazzi* III AV.DV and Snazzi* DV Premiere Cut.

Pete Kellock, founder and CEO of muvee Technologies, said, “muvee has enjoyed a good relationship with V One and we are delighted at another opportunity to continue working with them. V One is growing rapidly and has established a solid reputation for itself, with strong distribution channels and an extensive range of simple and affordable multimedia products that open the doors to technology for everyone. Together we can effectively grow the consumer video editing market and enrich the user experience for all.”

Tan Thye Seng, Chairman and CEO of V One Multimedia, said “muvee autoProducer is a great complement to many of our video editing solutions with its ease of use and wonderful results. Bundling muvee autoProducer DVD Edition with our newest Snazzi* DV.AVIO enables us to give our users a robust and complete end-to-end digital video solution that is both practical and fun.”

Underlying muvee autoProducer’s user-friendly interface is powerful technology that dramatically simplifies the video production process, making it up to a thousand times faster than any other approach. Users simply add in their video, choose some music, and select a fun editing style from the built-in list of 24. muvee autoProducer analyzes these input elements, picking out key scenes and discarding low-quality video, before automatically cutting the raw footage, complete with effects and transitions timed to the length and rhythm of the chosen music. In mere minutes, a creative and professional-looking music video is ready to be saved in a variety of popular formats, including MPEG-2 for SVCD/DVD creation.
