Magix releases its first virtual reality software

Magix has released Photostory Premium VR, their latest software that complements Magix’s Photostory product family with a new way of editing photos and videos. The program includes a set of VR functions, the full functionality of Photostory Deluxe and other additional effects.

Photostory Premium VR offers users various options to create interactive VR presentations. 360° photos and videos can be assembled to form professional virtual tours. Additional content such as regular photos and videos or texts can be added and edited with a few clicks. The software makes it possible to achieve real surround sound by adding audio files. Users who do not have an extensive collection of 360° or 3D content can also display their conventional photos and videos in one of the 3D worlds provided by the program.

No additional hardware is required to run Photostory Premium VR, bringing the technology to a new audience of every-day users.

For sharing and playing finished VR experiences Magix provides a free app which allows viewing on PC or laptop, with VR glasses or with a VR headset for smartphones.

“Virtual reality is currently one of the most exciting technological developments of our age”, says Stefan Renz, Photostory Premium VR’s product owner. “We have over 20 years of experience in developing photo and video editing software and are using this knowledge to help shape VR innovation. We truly believe that Photostory Premium VR will greatly expand the circle of users who can take part in this exciting new technology.”
