Video Production

Nowadays, making movies in film is rapidly shifting towards digital. "Video, in digital or analog form, is a collation of still images presented to the viewer so fast they give the illusion of motion". The term videography or video production refers to the art of telling a story through careful presentation of video.

Achieving this "art", one must plan, shoot, edit, and master all the video-work digitally, with the use of video technology and non-linear editing software available.

Capturing videos for commercial and high-end work, one must have at least a 3CCD video camera for quality expectations. When the footage is captured, it consists of "programmes" (sometimes referred to as "sequences"), which is then divided into "scenes." A single scene is composed of one or more camera "shots". All the shots, scenes, and sequences are put together to make a final product using an editing system. Though, for the digital age, non-linear editing (using computers with video editing software) is mostly used.

Most of the popular editing software for commercial use is as follows:
Adobe Premiere
Apple Final Cut Pro or Express
Autodesk Discreet
Avid Xpress Pro

With today's technology, visual media has rocketed to its popularity.
Almost everyone has heard of Youtube (most people even have a Youtube account), where most of these video works end up streaming. DVD authoring, DVD duplication and DVD replications are a few other ways of distributing videos to the end user.

At Disc2day, professional videographers and editors are ready to tackle everyone's video and editing needs from production to video conversion to the DVD duplication or replication.

Marketing With Flash Animation

Websites today are typically viewed as just an information resource or online ordering outlet for specific companies or organizations. What if you could turn your website into a fully immersive experience for the client. Adobe Flash can provide a meaningful and fun experience for visitors coming to a website. Marketing and advertising today is a competitive area and displaying an innovative online presence that enables customers to interact with a product while learning about it will increase the possibility that they will remember the product and company later.

Flash design offers tools to create 2D and 3D animations enhancing the experience while still maintaining the integrity of a website structure. Flash combines a vector art platform with Actionscript, the software's scripting language, to allow users the ability to design amazing presentations. Flash also allows importing of audio and video files. Flash can be used to create a simple stand-alone presentation, an interactive website, or even a full featured computer game. Flash can be used to create something as small as an animated, couple-second image to website headers or menus or even the entire website.

Disc2Day's staff is friendly and ready to help you improve your graphic presence by now offering Flash design services!

Weekly Band Spotlight

Here at Disc2day we see hundreds of bands come in and out our doors for their CD duplication or CD replication projects. Many of these musicians continue to come back to us for continued duplication or replication services as well as our other promotional services such as printing posters and fliers. So we have decided to start giving something back to the music community; we will now be doing a weekly band spotlight to help promote local musicians. So feel free to check back weekly for more band spotlights as well as our normal news and information about the CD DVD industry.

This weeks spotlight: Native American Flute Music

Bob Mann was first introduced to Native American flutes when he was visiting a relative in the hospital. His love for the music inspired him to start playing and collecting Native American Flutes. He has now become well known in the flute industry. His CD's have sold on Amazon, CD Baby, and local flute shows just to name a few. His Replicated CD titles include Sky Blue, Moon Rider and his newest release Wings of Change, are now all available on his website www.gcflutes.com. They also carry the finest selection of Native American Flutes and drums in the nation. Rest assured if you purchase a flute or a drum from him, it will bring you great joy.

Disc2day is proud to be his CD Duplication/Replication company of choice and we have done his CD's for several years now, and hope to be a part of Bob's continued success for many years to come.
