Introduction to PhotoDirector 9
When it comes to making unforgettable photos that stand apart from the others, nothing beats PhotoDirector. Brand new PhotoDirector 9 offers a bunch of new opportunities for creativity, including the ability to turn videos into animated GIFs, create Motion Stills, and blend photos together to craft unique effects.
PhotoDirector 9 also introduces a 360° Photo Editor which allows you to edit 360° photos in the easiest way possible. Let’s take a peek at these new features!
Total 360º Photo Editing
PowerDirector 9 supports all major 360° camera brands, and now you can edit your 360° photos effortlessly. Additionally, your 360° photo can be transformed into cool panorama and Little Planet images.
Straighten the Crooked 360º Photos
Capture cropped images from your 360 photos by adjusting the visual perspective to straighten skewed angles.
Tripod Removal
Don’t be troubled by tripods in your images anymore! The blur and reflection bubble effect helps you to cover tripods in 360 photos.
Panoramas from 360º Photos
Create sweeping panoramas from 360 images in few steps! With a 360º image and PhotoDirector you're well on your way to creating truly flowing vistas.

Turn your 360° photos into a world of their own in just a few quick clicks with the new Little Planet feature. It’s easier than you thought to own a planet.
Video-to-Photo Tools
Now you can take the perfect picture from your videos. With just a click you can capture a razor-sharp still image that you can use to create your own perfect timelapse, group photo, multi-exposure or layered image. In PhotoDirector 9, we’ve added 2 new modes: “Create Animated GIF File” and “Create Motion Stills”, which can transform videos into animated photos.
Create Motion Stills
Motion Stills are an amazingly creative twist on standard photographs. Brush over sections of a video clip to retain movement in that area only. Other parts appear frozen in time!

Animated GIFs are a fun way to turn videos into short, creative images. They're perfect to be shared on web pages and blogs to create more engaging content.
