Hi, folks. I have a new task - to figure out how to create a DVD that uses some sort of logic for determining what to play next. I know, that's what menus are for. This is going to be for an educational DVD with lots of menus and routes to take, similar to a choose your own adventure book. I think this may be too complicated for a DVD player but I am not sure. I am thinking of this in terms of a flow chart, which is easy to see, but in terms of laying it all out for making a video, I don't know a simple construction method because then it has to be constructed in a linear fashion. Possible to do but difficult and confusing.
So here's my question. Is there a tool that will let me break free from the linear construction and allow me to create something that looks like a flowchart? This ideal piece of software would let me make a menu once, then have several video clips that lead to it, have loops that come back to each other, etc., and output a DVD. I have no idea where to turn for this, but knowing Steve Garfield, Verdi, Jay and others, someone will likely have it knocked out inside of a week. How hard is programming, anyway? I tried doing this in Pinnacle Studio and Adobe Premiere and it got wicked complicated wicked fast. Seriously though, what I am looking for is really just a different user interface to make this simpler to construct. Something like Visio, but for making interactive video. Hmm - "Video" - catchy name... Thanks, Carl http://carlweaver.blogspot.com Carl Weaver Photographer http://www.carlweaver.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
