Over the decades, distribution has remained the most elusive aspect of filmmaking, but the Web provides filmmakers with another option for distribution, exhibition and broadcast. While other media streaming technologies are available, QuickTime remains the most popular option for its versatility, excellent quality and ease of use. This book aims to show filmmakers and videographers how to utilize this industry standard tool and offers advice on how best to shoot a film for Internet delivery. Other topics include: editing and converting video; adding and editing soundtracks; using text in QT movies; compressing media; preparing movies for http and RTSP streaming or a combination of both; and VR. The guide shows how to make the most of QuickTime 6.x and the companion CD-ROM demonstrates the techniques covered in the book and provides samples of film prepared for Web delivery.
