Apple Releases Shake 4.1

Apple have released version 4.1 of Shake their compositing software allowing simple retouching or complicated multi-plane 3D effects.

This is the first Universal binary version of Shake (i.e. works on both the older PowerPC and new Intel Macs).

What will of most interest to users though is the price, which has been dropped from £1,999 (inc VAT) to £329 (inc VAT) which now puts it firmly in the hands of the mass of Final Cut Studio users out there. It supports HD, 2K and 4K image procesing.

Apple are promoting use on their new MacBook range to be used for continuity work, they are also Intel based (and the Mac Mini isn't really suited for heavy duty working).
