Jump5 Video Director

[edit]

Jump5 Video Director was a computer game released as a CD-ROM in November 2004. It was also included with copies of The Very Best of Jump5 in 2005. The game allowed the player to create a live Jump5 performance by synchronizing choreography and selecting stage elements and camera angles.
