Week 9: DVD Menu: Photoshop Images and Animation

I have nearly completed my PSD's within Photoshop for my DVD Menu, these will be the pages which I will import into Encore and create the links throughout the DVD Menu for the menu to come together and work. I am happy with my DVD Menu pages and I believe that all these menus link well together and to me suggest the genre of Drama, the DVD Menu Pages which are completed include:

• Main Menu
• Scene Selection Pages 1 and 2
• Special Features
• Audio Setup
• Subtitles

I am happy with the progress which I have made on these different menus and I am now ready to put all the PSD's into Encore and link them together and I am looking forward to seeing the final DVD Menu within Encore with the links put into place.
I have also used animation within my DVD Menu pages and today I created the animation of a rotating Handbag, I originally decided to have a rotating shoe as this linked in with the theme of the DVD Menu although I did try rotating a shoe but the rotation did not link in very well to the rest of the menus. Therefore I have created the same rotating handbag on all of the Menus and this handbag is similar to the rollover button which I am using throughout the DVD Menus.

Overall, I am happy with my DVD Menu pages and I am happy with the rotation which is being placed in the corner of every menu, (except the main menu) and this will be continually rotating on the menus.
