Visual Communicator Plus is an innovative and sophisticated software application that allows you to produce broadcast-quality presentations and videos through your PC. Although it doesn't offer the intricate split-second editing or the sheer number of effects of some home moviemaking suites, the program features a super-simple interface and enough pioneering amenities to impress any audience.Read more

Incredible Results for the Money
I purchased VC Plus after reading about it's various awards. It truely does what it claims. I bought the Logitech Pro 4000 webcam to use with it at the same time. Installing both products, configuring the camera, setting up proper lighting (two 500-watt halogens from my garage bouncing light off the ceiling), and tweaking the green-screen background effects took about two hours altogether. After that, wow! Recording professional broadcast videos on my PC (Athlon 1600XP with 512MB RAM, GeForce 2 400MX, and WinXP Pro) is easy and fast. Honestly. I'm recording a series of training videos for clinical microbiology students. Incorporating PowerPoint slides (as JPEGs) and shot video from a DV camcorder is easy. Adding screen shots of Windows apps (alt+PrtScn) is also easy (use Paint to save to JPEG first). All this content can be set to trigger during broadcast recording with various transition effects (they give you tons of effects to use). You can rehearse as often as you like, then do a recording. After that, you then publish the recording in either AVI or Windows Media format (I strongly suggest using Windows Media format); you can use third party apps to convert an AVI-published broadcast to Real or QuickTime formats, but I found the Windows Media format to give the smoothest and sharpest display with excellent compression. Why bother with anything else? Soon the SeriousMagic website will offer an upgrade to allow recording in Windows Media 9 format (which is absolutley unbelieveable in quality and compression). The VC Plus package microphone worked fine, but I suggest laying the included green-screen fabric on the floor and placing books on it to reduce the fold creases, otherwise fine lines will appear in your recorded background. There is a new (11/02) VC Pro version available only on the SM website, but the extra cost (double) did not justify the price for my needs right now. VC Plus gives you everything you need to make terrific training or announcement videos for any purpose. Wonderful stuff. Also included is an Alpha GC Titling editor that you can use to create your own broadcast-quality screen titles and text (if you don't like the numerous included ones). The manual is great, but I wish some extra "advanced" tutorials were included or available on their website...I'm already moving beyond "novice mode". Gone are the days of tedious video editing. You can add MP3s and WAV music clips anywhere along the broadcast. Truely nifty. The SM website has loads of sample videos to watch before you decide to buy. VC more than delivers as promised. By the way, I don't work for the company...I work for a rather large medical center in Los Angeles.

Not what the Advertise
I have a new PC and everything required and still have a fuzzy picture and lots of noise.Need a lot of setup time to make it work.Not what I expected.

Not What They Said
Looks like a great product if you can get it to work.I purchased a Logic web cam, have a new 1.2 GHz computer and did everything the manual said, and I still can't get it to work.My image is very fuzzy and has lots of noise. It is taking a lot of time to set up but the operation of the product looks fairly simple.Over all not what I expected. ... Read more
