Quote: Guys I'm making a hunting dvd, love to have a few suggestions on a template to use in the beginning of my dvd (title template)

Have you perused the Director Zone for a Hunting Template?

I didn't see a good one and the only one related to "hunt" is a DVD menu with mushrooms (forgive the pun). .

Hi,
If you mention what type of hunting this video entails then maybe a member could create a template for DirectorZone and post a link to it.
Hunting video is a broad field as to animal types.

That link gets you close but search for "Silent Hunt" Also search for other appropriate DVD menus like "Outdoors", "Forest". etc. .

you'll find bass, cows, skunks, clams, birds, deer, frogs, lobsters, possums, raccoons, wabbits, and this jackalope.

Also,
if you do a Google image search for "moose", click on the "search tools" button, and restrict your search to "transparent", you'll be up to your antlers in mooses which are PNG or GIF suitable for PIP or menu objects.

Hi newfielander -

Do you really need a title template?

Why not just plant your title over the opening part of the video or a snapshot of a scene in the hunt?

Hi Ynotfish I know what you mean maybe that's what I'll do. Maybe I'm asking for the wrong thing here, I thought it was called a title template, I was wanting to create a little video template to put on the very beginning of my dvd, just like 5 - 10 seconds, than follow with my intro. In the little video there would be pic's or video of scenes in my dvd and wording, along with music, which I can take care of. I can create it myself using the program and use overlay, but just wanted to save time and see if I can find a pre made one.
James1 I like that pic by the way thanks!!

LOL thats cool but this isn't what I'm looking for. I guess I will have to research and see just what its called that I have in mind.

Hi,
Well I will explain ( in my experience with PD) what I think you are after is the intro 'Movie" that preludes the actual DVD menu system, which is demonstrated on the bundled templates. To achieve that you have to create your own from scratch as the 'Intro' is not very easily altered if at all.
You have to start a project create what you want as an 'Intro' and produce as a standalone production, then start your final project, when all videos, effects etc. are done go to 'Create Disk and from Menu Designer use the 'Intro" video as that an intro which will end the sequence at the 'Title Menu"/chappter sequence.
Jim
p.s. Hope that is helpfull Intel i7-2600@3.4Gz Geforce 560ti-1GB Graphic accelerator, windows 7 Premium 12GB memory

If you are looking for a video that plays before the menu appears, it is called First Play Video. It is installed in Create Disk in the First play slot.
