Many corporate communications departments cannot justify the high-cost of today's DVD-R drives and media.
However Impact Studios can provide an ideal solution:

DVD on CDROM (cDVD)
Impact Studios will provide your DVD program mastered onto CDROM instead of DVD media. Make no mistake, this is not the "computer video" in a tiny window that we have Been forced to live with. You will get full screen, full DVD spec. video, recorded onto an inexpensive CDROM disc. The only difference between a cDVD and DVD disc is the capacity of the media. cDVD provides enough storage capacity for about 15 to 20 minutes of video and audio. Discs playback in any PC (PII, or higher) without any additional hardware or software. Impact Studios includes full-featured DVD player software with every program. The software is automatically loaded into memory when a disc is inserted, and automatically removed from memory when the disc is removed. There is nothing for the user to install, you simply pop the disc into your computer the way you would a tape into a VCR. cDVD combines low production and media costs with the broadest range of players the PC.


Ideal uses for cDVD include

Corporate training - Frequently structured in short, "bite-size" sessions, these classes lend themselves very well to distribution on cDVD, where video training can be produced on a small-quantity, custom and interactive basis.

Product promotion - cDVD provides a very practical way to promote technical or upscale products (where the viewer is likely to own a PC). You can produce targeted marketing campaigns that, using high-quality video footage, show products at their best.

As a corporate or an advertising agency you understand that delivering your message is not only about content but presentation. It is not possible to lug a Digital Betacam deck around to show off that newly completed advertising campaign, but it is possible to have the same quality and have your last 20 commercials on cDVD.

cDVD is far superior to VHS for delivery of product demo videos, and will save you money. In addition to cost savings for duplication, cDVDs are less expensive to ship, include all your media such as viewable versions of brochures, and multimedia presentations. We can embed links to your website into your cDVD title. When the disc is played back and a URL is reached, the computer's browser is automatically launched and directed to that URL.

This allows you to provide additional information to the viewer, such as new product information or product information or pricing
