Documentation & Tutorials
Isadora SDK
The Isadora SDK allows you to write your own Isadora modules in C or C++. There is no documentation for the SDK at this time, but the example projects are heavily commented. If you want to make a video processing plugin, you really only need to modify a few items (which are clearly marked) and then write the code to process the video.
Quotes from Isadora Users
"Isadora is my preferred software tool when designing projections in theatrical settings. It allows me to demonstrate design ideas to choreographers and directors quickly and effectively. It provides the ability to "audition" my visual ideas in space with live performers while making major or minor tweaks to effects such as speed, duration, and color or I can resize the frame in difficult projection scenarios all in real-time. If anything I have spoiled my collaborators by using Isadora, as it seems they now think video is created by me hitting a few keys!" — Maya Ciarrocchi, Video Designer
