Here’s how Sony’s EyeCreate software actually works. Predictably clean interface, nice big buttons, handy pop-up instructions, even what looks like simple drop-in sound effects/music. You, too, can be creating awful promo videos in no time flat! Click on the pic for a larger version, there’s another after the jump.
Sony has added the promised EyeCreate video editing software to the North American PlayStation Store today, a small 9MB download that will allow users to capture video, audio and photos, edit them, use special effects such as colour filters, distortions, art filters and motion trails, and export them to the PlayStation 3′s video folder. The software requires a PlayStation Eye camera, something most of us won’t have until The Eye of Judgment and the standalone retail version of the Eye arrive on store shelves this week.
I’m PlayStation Eye-less at this point, but fully plan on cobbling together sexy performances of “Hungry Like The Wolf”, saturated with comely air-clawing motions, when SingStar finally ships. More »
When the PlayStation Eye was first announced, we were told it was going to come bundled with something called the EyeCreate video editing suite. And that was about the last we heard of it. Until today! Sony have posted three videos to their PlayStation blog, aimed at showing off the kind of things EyeCreate can do. The accompanying text says it allows you to this: With EyeCreate you can capture darn near anything and make your own personalised videos… You can also add all sorts of cool effects, record your own sounds and export your video to the XMB. Some of the coolest features include the time-lapse capturing and the stop-motion functionality. If you want to show off your videos, you can drop your creation on a memory stick or USB drive and share it with other PS3 users.
The accompanying videos (rest at the link), however, only show some time-lapse videos to a crummy drum & bass soundtrack. Oh, one last thing before you go: it’ll also be available as a free download from October 23.
