CyberLink brings touch-optimized MediaStory for video editing

TAIPEI, TAIWAN: CyberLink Corp. unveiled MediaStory, a touch-optimized application that turns photo and video collections into rich, polished video stories that can be saved or shared to Facebook and YouTube.

MediaStory uses metadata, geo-tags and information from Google and Outlook calendars to automatically arrange media transferred from cameras, phones, Facebook or storage devices into groups. Users can browse their photos and videos by event, date/time, who's in them, location they were taken, or by self-assigned folder name. Unique filtering options make selecting which media to include in a video story quick and intuitive.

Given the fast-paced nature of online sharing, MediaStory has been optimized to run on the latest fourth Generation Intel Core processor technology, providing ideal video production speeds. Users are able to select from a range of professionally-designed templates to create, for example, a 2-minute Full HD (1080p) video story from an album of 24 photos in under a minute.

"Intel and CyberLink collaborated to create MediaStory, which helps enable faster and simpler video and photo editing so that instead of simply sharing the raw media, people can share stories that are memorable and rich," said Christos Georgiopoulos, VP, Software and Services Group, GM, Developer Relations Division, Intel Corporation.
