Holy acquisition Batman, just found this in my inbox:Dear Serious Magic Customer,
I have some exciting news to share. As of today, October 19, 2006 Adobe Systems Incorporated has acquired Serious Magic.
This is a fantastic opportunity for both companies to join together to deliver award-winning video software to help creative professionals, businesses, consumers, and educators communicate better. Over our nearly six year history Serious Magic has developed several uniquely powerful technologies. We're particularly excited because now these technologies, as well as our award-winning products, can reach a much larger worldwide audience. I view it as gaining a dramatically larger stage for the magic we've built to play on.
Moving forward, you should continue to contact Serious Magic sales and support for Serious Magic products and solutions. For more information about the acquisition, please visit http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/pressroom/.
Myself and most of the Serious Magic team are continuing with Adobe and the future looks very bright indeed. We're proud of the cutting-edge work we've done so far at Serious Magic and believe that teaming with Adobe will be a truly magical combination.
Sincerely,
Mark Randall
CEO and Chief Magician
According to the press release, Adobe will continue to sell Serious Magic's products and future versions of Adobe's video solutions will include Serious Magic technologies and software. Mark Randall, CEO, will join Adobe as chief strategist, Dynamic Media.
So, maybe some Ultra 2 in the next version of Production Studio?
1. This is definitely an intersting combo, thanks for posting!
