- Digital Video / DVD Authoring

Back to main page

I can take your existing recordings in VHS, VHS-C, Mini-DV, or DVD formats; edit them, (to some extent) clean them up, and present them as a coherent DVD, or VideoCD. Alternatively, clips can be encoded to MPEG-1 format for use on the internet.

Editing
- Putting material into the correct order for presentation rather than the order it was filmed in.
- Elimination of unwanted material at the ends of scenes.
Clean up
- Removal of artifacts such as lines on the picture.
Dubbing
- Replacement of existing soundtrack.
- Adding music or sound-effects to existing soundtracks.
Compilation
- Re-ordering the individual scenes to make them more suitable for presentation.
- Bringing material from various sources together onto one disc.
- DVDs can be arranged into "chapters" which enable the viewer to skip to relevant sections in the material.

Sorry - I am still in the process of developing the techniques required to put menus on DVDs

At the moment the DVDs I create can only contain Video Information, I am currently working on developing methods for also including interactive elements. Once this has been developed, I will be able to produce complete multi-media presentations on DVD which can be viewed on domestic DVD players as well as various computer systems (e.g. PCs running GNU/Linux, and the Apple Macintosh). Existing multi-media packages are usually aimed at one system only (usually Microsoft Windows).

As this serice is still quite new, I'm not able to offer price guidelines as yet. In the meantime please contact me with your requirements for a free quotation.
