Motion Studio for Windows

Aiming to create interactive presentations, Motion Studio sports several features but falls short of similar programs. Motion Studio's complex interface may look chaotic at first glance, but commands, libraries, and page display are logically arranged.

Lacking a true step-by-step wizard, the program's help file suggests six simple steps to creating a page. That's still not quite novice-friendly, but most users will be able to follow the instructions well enough. Among Motion Studio's features are highly customizable presentations, a large selection of page types, several layout libraries, a sound file manager, and page and object templates.

Oddly, some expected functions were unavailable during the trial. Plus, you're limited to three active pages without program registration. This program simply doesn't produce presentations as easily as with the leading programs. Still, intermediate or advanced users might want give this program a try for quick and basic presentations.
