Product Description:

Still Life is a stand-alone application that enables users to pan and zoom over digital still images and produce a video for use in iMovie, iDVD or any other multimedia project. The program goes way beyond the built-in Ken Burns Effect of iMovie 3 by allowing users to take multiple "shots" of an image, pan along a curve and rotate the "camera" if needed. Still Life is also fully compatible with iMovie 2, 3, 4 and 5 (iMovie HD).

  • Fixed an image handling issue on Tiger that caused corrupted output.
  • Fixed a texture management bug that caused crashes on dual processor machines.

For those of us hoping for an update from Granted SW, this new from plasq.com, makers of Comic Life http://plasq.com/component/option,com_joomlaboard/Itemid,40/func,view/id,5006/catid,17/ Re:Still Life - 2006/12/15 12:17 Hi there, Yes, it is true: plasq is acquiring some software created by granted software. In the up and coming months; you will slowly see some of granted software's previous titles become a part of the plasq lineup. 1) We are currently working on a Universal Binary of Still Life - this will be released at grantedsw.com 2) We plan on doing some updates soon and releasing it under the plasq brand - within 6 months hopefully. 3) We have no plans to release it for Windows at this stage Hope this helps

Still Life Troubleshooting ReportExport fails on very large image? - Version: 2.3.4, 10/12/2006 02:25AM PST

alexemde
This software is very convincing, and though the preview may seem a bit choppy at times, the exported media is generally of very high quality. With normal resolution images, I have never found any problems.

But now I have made a pan through a large Panaroma image (24000 px width, 2000 px height) that previews just fine - but when I try to export, no matter which format I choose, I will see the export progress window for a short time, then the export seems to finish, but there is no resulting media file (and also no error message).

Still Life Reviewgreat product...a few suggestions though - Version: 2.3.4, 8/28/2005 07:54AM PST

I've used Still Life for a couple of years now, I think, and I've found it to be a great product. Don't let the renders in the live preview fool you...the output looks smooth when finally rendered.

My only remaining peeve with the product is it's reliance on the filesystem to link to pictures. There are times when I would like to move a folder with all of the photos, still life project files, and outputted DV files to an external drive so that I can work on it with my laptop. But even moving all of the files --in the same folder-- breaks the project file linkings. The ability to select a folder or image that has already been used in Still Life would be useful. (Perhaps not used that much, but useful to me).

I also wish there was a way to select a particular shot and then click-drag that shot without accidentally selecting another shot. (It is too easy to accidentally click-and-drag a different shot accidentally when the shots overlap)
