About this project

MAKE YOUR SHOW ON THE ROAD!

We want to create a great mobile presentation creation, delivery and recording for students and educators around the world.  Help us build ProfCast Mobile for launch this fall!

ProfCast Mobile is an app for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad that will allow you to create, give, and record presentations from your iOS device.

Back in 2006, we launched a revolutionary new product for presentation recording called "ProfCast".  ProfCast made it easy to record and share presentations you were already giving.  Students could review your lessons on their computers or mp3 players.  People really liked it!

ProfCast worked smarter than other screen capture tools.  It created really small movie files with the slides synchronized with the audio recording.  The recording included chapters that were derived from the slides themselves, so people didn't have to do a lot of work after they finished their presentation to be ready to publish it.

Well, now it's 2011 and there's this mobile revolution happening with iPhones, iPods and iPads being adopted at a rapid pace in education and business.  In January 2010, we released a cool little app called SonicPics that lets you create and narrate custom photo slide shows.  It's great for digital story telling and people really like it too, but it isn't a full presentation app that you could use for, say a board meeting or a lecture. That's what we want to build with ProfCast Mobile.  

ProfCast Mobile builds on the foundation of SonicPics, but adds full presentation creation and editing capabilities.  This includes the ability to have animated transitions, add text, shapes, photos and change the layout and theme of your slides.  Animated transitions will help dazzle your audience.  Once your presentation is created, you can give it directly from your iPad or iPhone using ProfCast Mobile.  Use the video out capability and the Apple Digital AV Adapter (sold separately) to connect your iPad to your HDTV or projector. Even better, you can record your presentation as you give it.  Share your narrated presentation on your web site, via email or on YouTube, all from your iOS device!
