and focus on interactive QuickTime solutions and broadband media creation
tools. Essentially, it brings the interactive power and functionality of
LiveStage Professional wired sprite capabilities to the masses.

easily create interactive slide shows and presentations. Our goal is to
maintain our position as the leading QuickTime authoring tool developer by
continuing to produce powerful easy-to-use award-winning software,'' says

is the QuickTime authoring tool of choice. LiveSlideShow will allow users to
leverage the functionality of QuickTime and LiveStage Professional, making it
the ideal alternative to using RealNetworks RealSlideShow(TM) Plus 2.0 to
broadcast interactive slide shows to communicate and share ideas on the

now that Apple has unveiled their Internet strategy,'' said Randall McCallum,
CEO and President of Totally Hip. ''We also believe LiveSlideShow users will
eventually graduate to LiveStage Professional and desktop video tools such as
Apple's popular iMovie(TM) or Final Cut Pro(TM), and this fits perfectly with
Apple's desktop video and Internet strategy.''
