An app created by Stephen Mamber, professor and vice chair of cinema and media studies in the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television, is now available as a free iPad app in the iTunes App Store.

The app, titled"Who Shot Liberty Valance?," is an experimental study of the classic 1962 John Ford film, "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" and advances an argument of new ways to consider the film.
 
 Mamber is the author of the iPad app ClipNotes, which has been available in the App Store since November 2012. ClipNotes helps retrieve pre-selected segments of any film or video and show them together with a user’s descriptions. ClipNotes for Windows became available in November 2013 and just received an Editor's Pick Award from BestWindows8apps.net.

Mamber has been active in the digital media arena for several decades. He started out writing a variety of tools and applications, principally exploring the possibilities of using digital media for film analysis, and has gone on to design multimedia applications and web sites. He has been a visiting research scientist at the IBM T.J. Watson Center in New York and has served as a National IBM Consulting Scholar. His work has been supported by a MacArthur Foundation grant and by the Intel Research Council.
