eStudio FAQ

 
WORKROOM
- eSTUDIO gives professionals the ability to upload/download works-in-progress and presents multiple images with clickable thumbnails. The thumbnails are created on the fly, just notate the image and your done. You can even upload files from 3D programs, AVID, AfterEffects, Video Clips and text. Just about any type of file you can create you can share with your co-workers. Your colleagues can add comments about files that have been uploaded to your eSTUDIO.
