The Newsman And Comedian Should Be Friends

Now that we have channel after channel of 24 hour news, it is practically impossible to get an exclusive story. You think Wolf wants to leave his nice comfortable Situation Room to chase down video? That’s for the little people. The man on the street. The you and the me.

So now we are all news deputies. Footage of a hurricane? Cow with a rifle? Baby who looks like a lemon? Gather it up and send it in and maybe these millionaire journalists will throw a t-shirt your way if it buys them one more rating point. You like like getting t-shirts, right? Well, then you might want a Dazzle Video Creator Platinum.

Just like an expensive video board with the expensive parts removed, the Dazzle Video Creator Platinum has composite and S-Video inputs, as well as Stereo audio RCA jacks for sound. You can recreate the feeling of being in an actual editing bay, pretending that you can add a soul to Lou Dobbs and Larry King in post. And you can bet that means the Dazzle Video Creator Platinum is powerful stuff.

There’s also the included Pinnacle Studio Quickstart software, which will make adding effects a breeze. You’ll be able to handle stills, tiles, add background music, and do all the things that make Anderson Cooper so popular with the ladies. And also Tom Cruise. Additionally our lawyer says you’re not allowed to read anything into that statement and you must take it literally. Failure to do so will not be constituted as a statement made by us.

The Dazzle Video Creator Platinum will let you make videos right from an input source, without even needing hard drive space. You can compress to MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-3, as well as create videos for the PSP, iPod or DivX. And you can record right to a DVD burner with full resolution quality, no matter where you travel. That plus two full cases of whiskey could make you the next Charles Kuralt!

So don’t wind up like Andrea Thompson, out looking for psychic ghosts that will pay her rent. Start building a bridge to the part of news that matters: the content department. Use the Dazzle Video Creator Platinum to put your old footage together in a new and exciting way. If it doesn’t impress Wolf, you can always try The MoMA.
