The Behind-The-Scenes Art Of Developing DVD Extras
from the quite-a-career dept
As DVDs become more and more popular, there's a growing "artform" for people who design the menus and special features that make DVDs so popular. There are even special awards that the artists behind those DVD elements can win. The best DVD menu/extra feature designers are apparently in high demand these days. I wonder if there will be cult followings of DVD extra designers the way there are currently cult followings around some book-jacket designers.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
