Multimedia Builder

08-17-98

Multimedia Builder is a powerhouse multimedia authoring tool that involves no scripting or programming. Its completely visual development environment makes it easy to create professional multimedia projects in a minimal amount of time -- and at low cost. Projects can integrate text, graphics, sound and video objects. You can add objects that play sounds, display video, open a link in a Web browser, browse a CD-ROM, display a document or help file, send an email, and much more. Most interestingly, Multimedia Builder lets you define windows with custom shapes; you don't have to fit your ideas inside a plain old rectangle. Although the Multimedia Designer program requires DirectX, the Player works with or without it, increasing the portability of Multimedia Builder projects.
Multimedia Builder has a coherent, well-designed interface, with plenty of tools readily available. It looks great, and so will your projects.
Multimedia Builder is the tool to use if you need to create a great presentation without prior knowledge of major authoring systems. .
