DVD Operation And Insert Requirments

The DVD is one of the most crucial things which is needed in the show as this will contain all VT inserts, stings, opening titles and credits. With the DVD there are certain requirments that are needed these are listed as followed:

• Make sure that when recording VT inserts or Stings that all of the settings our the same and so the screen aspect ratio is not different on each clip.
• One of the most major things is that you always must have at least 7 second inbetween each VT. This is because in these 7 seonds you will need 3 things. The first being 1 seond of black so this will not cut straight into the next sequence. The second you will need 5 seconds of VT roll, this is the count of what VT this is and what it is, it is also a way of getting to the track quickly. The final thing which is required is a further 1 second of black, this is the more crucial of the 2 blacks as this is where the DVD must be paused at and so the director can shout roll DV and that is when the DVD is played.
