The Adventure of Life in 4K

I think you’ll agree that storytelling on the iPad has never been this much fun. According to iTunes release notes, Adobe created Voice to help us create “stunning animated videos in minutes”.

Indeed, you don’t have to start from scratch as the app includes ready-made templates provided around common storytelling themes such as promoting an idea, showing off a product, telling what happened and what not.

I think the biggest selling point of Voice – apart from the $0 price – is the focus on narration: if you’re not willing to record your own voice to tell a story, the app won’t make much sense.

When I created a presentation and sent a link to a friend, the video quality was far from perfect. I had used some high quality photos, and the video really did not reflect their quality.

Also, I find it a bit strange that the app works only in portrait orientation on the iPad. Most video is longer in width than height, so why doesn’t the app configure itself for the best view?
