#Desktop Video World
DESKTOP VIDEO WORLD LAUNCHED BY TECHMEDIA PUBLISHING, INC., AN IDG COMPANY
Peterborough, NH (August 24, 1992) – Dale Strang, President of TechMedia
Publishing, Inc., recently announced the launch of Desktop Video World
magazine. The magazine will make its debut on national newsstands on
January 12, 1993.
Desktop Video World is the first publication specifically targeted at the
merging computer and video markets. This market is estimated to grow to
$625 million in 1992 and by 1995 will hit several billion dollars. The
desktop video market is comprised of computer users, multimedia producers
and videographers.
According to Strang, "After extensive research, we have determined that
there is an information void in this young marketplace created by the
merging of computers and video. For a reasonable investment, one can set up
a desktop video suite and create professional, broadcast quality videos.
The number of products in the market are growing rapidly. The time is right
for such a publication to support the needs of these users and to help push
the market forward."
Lou Wallace, Desktop Video World Editor in Chief,and his staff have a
comprehensive issue planned that will thoroughly cover this emerging
market. The issue will contain articles on such topics as the newest
products available, views from industry experts on the desktop video
revolution and profiles on desktop videographers. Of interest to all is a
full-length feature on everything needed to set up a desktop video studio.
Editorial content will cover the Amiga, Mac and PC platforms.
Desktop Video World will be published by TechMedia Publishing, Inc., an
International Data Group company. TechMedia publishes AmigaWorld, for users
of the Commodore Amiga, and RUN, for users of the Commodore 64 and 128.
