Newsgroup: rec.video.production Date: Oct. 17 2000 From: Ian McDermott Digital Video to DVD for event production is my specialty. I create High end DVD titles full time and do wedding and event work on the side. My preferred format is DV SP (large cassettes) or DVCAM SP I use the LP but I will tell you up front there may be a charge for transferring to DVCAM if the tape does not work in my machine since LP is notorious for not playing correctly. I will also use SVHS but it looks poor compared. My current prices are as follows: We offer three turnkey packages for event DVD creation. Basic DVD is a simple two hour disc with no menus. The disc automatically starts and ends with predetermined chapter points. It has black and white labeling. Price - $100.00 + tax (where applicable) Plus DVD builds on the foundation of the basic disc. It adds stock menus and customizable chapter points. Color labels. Price - $150.00 + tax Custom DVD is the most customizable of the three options. It adds customizable stock menus and chapter points. Choose the pictures and text that will appear on the screens. Also comes with color printing and Amaray case. Price - $300.00 + tax Additional options are available. Call or email for more information. I hope this helps. -- Ian McDermott BT MEDIA eain@bellatlantic.net 617.797.2597
