Movie secrets revealed in the all new Video Gallery!

Even seen an amazing video made by PowerDirector users but never figured out how to make one yourself? In the all new Video Gallery, we not only provide you a one-stop place to browse all the wonderful videos shared by PowerDirector 8 users but also reveal the secrets behind their production, in the form of a the new timeline view. This view gives you a glimpse into the unique creative approach of fellow PowerDirector users. It's a great way to share your editing techniques too.

Here’s the quick introduction of how this exciting new feature works:

1. On the Video Gallery index page, click on any video with a video timeline icon


2. On the video detail page, you will see the video timeline which is exactly the same as that found in PowerDirector 8, including all the transitions and effects used in the video.


3. When you mouse-over a specific effect in the timeline, a tool-tip will show the thumbnail and effect title. Clicking on it would bring you to the effect detail page and you can proceed to download the effect if you like.


4. Similarly, when browsing effect detail pages, you could click on the video in the “Video with this effect” section to see the video timeline and learn how the effect is used.
