The Avio2 SE (school edition) is a special video-editing unit designed expressly
for the classroom environment. The complete Avio2 SE unit includes a 80gb video editor
with a modified edition of the Avio system software, keyboard, trackball controller,
two royalty-free CD’s of music and sound effects and all connecting cables. A library
of title fonts and a range of transitions and special effects including cross fades,
wipes, slow motion, fast
motion, reverse motion and stills to give every production that professional touch.
Avio2 SE is easy for non-video specialists to teach to their students. No knowledge
of computers is required, all operations are carried out from intuitive on screen
menus. The machine's illustrated manual and user-friendly interface make it simple
for teachers to set up and master in a very short time.
No other special equipment is required, only a domestic TV as monitor, and a domestic
VCR to record the finished film. Any VCR or camcorder may be used to load material
on to Avio.
A small learning-curve also makes the Avio2 SE easy for students to learn. Within
a very short period of instruction students can begin editing their own video production.
Project security from the unique Casablanca Avio2 SE software;
This classroom management tool allows teachers and students or student teams to store
video clips and music tracks on the hard drive in their own password protected project.
Each student team then has access only to their work - no other students can 'accidentally'
rearrange their project. But of course teachers - with their master password - can
access any and all of the 30 separate projects.

that professional touch is also included.
Also, students cannot enter the operating system. The software developers knew that
the purpose of the system is to edit video, so there is no confusion, no accidental
deletions or rearrangement of control panels or extensions.
The Avio system is infinitely upgradable, even a built-in DVD burner can be included.
Optional software is available, giving even more flexibility to an already powerful
tool.
In addition to curriculum usage, Avio can benefit the whole school. Student productions,
sporting events, topical interest projects, community projects, in-house mentor teaching
material, animation production and much more.
Bottom line: The teacher is able to work with the students on their content and
techniques, not worry about compatibility
