Extremely useful!

I was sitting in my editing bay when someone asked a question about compression and I had no idea but... I did have the Pro Video Guide on my phone. For any professionals who are being asked to know more and more, this app is extremely useful. A must have for any editor, assistant, producer or anyone working the production/post-production world.


You need this!

The ability to now sit at any production meeting, set, post bay, or coffeehouse and be able to answer all of those real technical production and post production questions IS HERE! This application will serve as a trusty reference companion for all things digital video. Amazing!

Excellent tool for anyone working with digital video or film. Yesterday, I was talking to a group of professional editors who were disagreeing on compression types. I used the Glossary to define the variables and settle the argument! The bookmark feature also allowed me to quickly navigate back through my choices.


Where have you been all my life

Moviola's application is a useful video resource. Its complete glossary brings concise definition to the vocabulary of those working in Professional Video. You no longer have to trust your memory. Well done..


Nicely done!

I've downloaded a fair amount of apps for various things, but this is the first time writing a review. I work as an editor and lately there is always something new- new formats, new technology. A lot of things that I constantly have to keep on top of. I can see using this as a reference guide on a regular basis. I've already had several of my questions answered about different formats. In the past I've googled what I was looking for and often had to spend a lot of time to get to an answer that was often too complex and long. The app simplifies subjects and different terms into a concise form that makes them useable- and not just an abstract thing. I haven't gone through everything in it yet, but what I've gotten into so far is great.


Very imformative and helpful
frysis

This is a really good resource for anyone experienced or new to video editing. It is very concise, really easy to use and has an impressive amount of information with quick links to all the sources you would ever need. I also like the short answer and glossery features. I'm really glad I found this app.
