Making DVDs is now within the scope of every home movie-maker. The equipment needed is readily available, and the costs have plummeted. Moreover, it's fun to use, it's easy to learn, and, best of all, you can share the DVDs you make with friends, family and business associates - and wow them with your sheer brilliance! Designing DVD Menus will provide readers at any level with all the information and inspiration they need to create a complete DVD from start to finish. It demystifies the jargon and explains technical issues in terms that are easy to understand. Employing plenty of easy-to-follow, step-by-step workthroughs, it encourages you to focus on getting creative with your ideas. It is full of projects that show how to use animation, picture-within-picture, background movie clips and audio and imaging effects to create stunning titles, menu screens, transitions and interactive features. All in all, it offers a wealth of tips and tricks to give your designs that cool, professional edge.
