Companies who used DVD services from NBS Studio
NBS Studio has produced DVD's for companies based in London such as Louis Poulsen, Dress2Kill & The NFRC/ConstructionSkills. We also continue to produce promotional DVD videos for the charity Think Jessica, which is a company dedicated to the eradication of Scam Mail. Each DVD video is created and edited at the highest quality. The Think Jessica DVD's are then produced and distributed throughout the whole of the UK.


A History of DVD production cost
DVD production development has changed hugely over the past 8 years, becoming more affordable. When NBS Studio first started DVD Production back in 1999 a blank DVD disc would cost £150 each!! If a mistake was made in producing a DVD master disc it was therefore going to cost £150 for each DVD disc that was wasted. This soon taught us NOT to make mistakes. A fast learning curve was needed to ensure a high level of understanding of the DVD production process was obtained, and producing a DVD was a seamless process knowing all the pitfalls and how to work them through. Over 10 years later we now know DVD's like the back of our hands.
DVD disc costs
The production costs of DVD's have dropped in price since 1999. The cost of a single DVD disc is currently around £0.20 at the cheap end of the scale, up to £0.60 for a high quality Verbatim Waterproof printable disc.
DVD encoding speeds
DVD encoding speeds have also increased driving down production costs. The time it now takes to produce a finished DVD disc is a fraction of the time it used to take to produce. Back in 1999 it would take around 60 minutes to produce a typical DVD video lasting between 15-20 minutes runtime. Now that same disc would be produced in just 10 minutes, which includes the time to transcode the video to the DVD compliant MPEG-2 and write to the disc.
How interactive are DVD videos?
DVD's don't have to be just video. DVD's can be produced with interactive questions and answers, which can contain helpful thumbnail videos on each menu. The maximum menu structure for DVD production is 99 menus. This should be sufficient for a fairly complex interactive quiz produced on DVD.
DVD authoring with ROM data
DVD's also contain an area on the disc called ROM. This area can be used for PC or MAC based material, such as; Multimedia programs, PDF files, Word Document files, etc... basically anything that can not be displayed on a standard DVD player. You may wish to use this are of the DVD disc for additional material for notes, brochures or other printable literature.
So you can see, DVD production can offer a full interactive experience. Remember a DVD does not have to contain just video!
Speak to NBS Studio to get the most out of your DVD production video.
The difference between DVD Players
Is there a difference between DVD Players?
YES. A DVD Player is basically a hardware box that can read the DVD video format. Where they differ is within the decoding of the video. The decoding software based on the DVD players electronic chips. Your cheap DVD player you bought from a supermarket at £20 will have different decoding logic compared to a more expensive brand of DVD player. You may not see the difference on a standard glass tube television set, but you will on some of the latest LCD or Plasma TV's, which are capable of displaying High Definition video. The main issue we have found is not in the compression rate of the DVD, but in the interlacing of the video. So if you are looking for a DVD company that knows all the faults and advantages of DVD, then trust NBS Studio to provide a high quality DVD production service for you. Tell us your requirements and we will tailor the service based around your needs.
Promotional / Training / Marketing DVD Production is low cost, desirable, interactive and informative
DVD video production is a convenient method of marketing your message to your corporate business clients. A promotional DVD production video can be produced to any specification at highly competitive rates. DVD videos can be produced with 4x3 and/or 16x9 (wide-screen) video content. Fully animated menus with video backgrounds and sound can create a professional look to your promotional DVD, training DVD or marketing DVD production video.
We produce Interactive DVD menus
A DVD doesn't have to just contain video. You can have interactive menus, slide shows, and some form of multiple choice flow. Blu-Ray of cause goes beyond the interactive functionality of DVD. When most people still use DVD players you have to work with what your client can accept. DVD video is therefore not obsolete.
HD-DVD's?
DVD could still have a sting in its tail. HD-DVD video discs have been around for a year or so now, but you could also see new features to the DVD specification emerge. Remember the DVD and Blu-Ray consortium's are not run by the same people.
DVD production videos for Promotional, Training & Marketing purposes have been produced for a variety of corporate companies such as;
Pitney Bowes, Schlumberger, Targetti Poulsen, NFRC Ltd (The National Federation of Roofing Contractors), Dress2Kill and SevernLink



DVD production can be created from your own supplied video footage or we can create a broadcast quality video production on your behalf and then encode the video in real-time as high-quality MPEG-2 for DVD production authoring or H.264 for Blu-Ray production authoring.
