In my blog
article entitled “How
to download High Quality Music via torrenting - The Mortal Instruments City of
Bones used to get Free Music”
I’d mentioned the Any
Video Converter that’s great for
converting any Video Format to any other Audio or Video Format. You should
really pair this software with VLC
Media Player which can also play
any Video or Audio Format.
If you’ve now reached the point where you have the
Animation Studio set up with the basic Video Editing Software as recommended in
my blog article entitled “Animation after KingstOOn - How to get free Video Editing
Tools to breathe life into you Animation Project” with
the Photo Editing Software as recommended in my
blog article entitled “Animation After KingstOOn – Free Photo Editing Software and
How to get a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 absolutely Free”, your basic rig is set.
Funding for purchasing more
equiptment, expansion and funding your big Animation projects can be obtained
via applying for NGO (Non Governmental Organization) and GOJ (Government of
Jamaica) Grant Funding as well as Crowdfunding via I Support Jamaica
as described in my blog
article entitled“JN
Foundation and JNSBL launches Jamaica's first Crowdfunding website, i Support
Jamaica - Local Crowdfunding to the rescue of Jamaican Innovators so you don't
have to be The Lone Ranger”.
All that’s left is to organize your
team of ten (10) and get creative. Most likely with this rig, aside from doing
Animation you can also do the following on the side to make revenue to support
your entrepreneurial venture:
1. Website Design
2. Photography
3. Video Editing
Now whether you doing Animation or
any other computer related activity, you’ll need to at some point author a CD
or DVD of your work for clients to see. Sharing links to your work uploaded to
a Cloud Drive as described in myblog
article entitled “How
to use Dropbox, Google Drive and Sound File Sharing Websites to Share and
Promote your Content online - Sharing is Caring”, especially if the potential client
doesn’t have super fast Broadband or the File is larger than the Size of your
Cloud Drive.
Uploading your work to Video Sharing Sites and Cloud
Drives is mainly for Marketing and Promoting your Work. Thus it’s still
important to know how to legally burn a CD or DVD using Free Software. Before
you begin, there a few pointers you need to bear in mind before you go ahead
and start burning CD or DVD:
1. The
Apple Mac is preferred but if you have a PC, you can always install a Linux
Distribution i.e. Fedora Linux or Ubuntu Linux. Just do a fresh Reinstallation
2. In
reading CD/DVD burner speeds, the “x” means “times 15kbps”. For a typical
CD/DVD Burner e.g. 32x/24x/20x = [Read speed]/[Write Speed]/[Re-Write Speed]
with you main concern being the Write speed
3. When
buying the DVD-R/CD-R Master CD and DVD’s, buy them in the Bigger Jewel Cases
encased and sealed in plastic; do not buy the thinner Jewel Case even if sealed
and encased in plastic.
4. Order
the DVD-R/CD-R Master CD and DVD’s (usually Gold coloured Writing surface) as
these are used for pressing Master Copies for Recording Artiste. They offer
higher fidelity and guaranteed coherence (ability to recover data from saved
Archives).
5. When
Cleaning CD and DVD Drives, best to spend money and get a professional CD/DVD
Cleaning Kit from a local PC Store or online and not the ones off the
street.
6. In
holding CD or DVD, always wear Latex Gloves and use your fingers to holds the
edges and the mounting hole to avoid damaging he writing surface of the CD or
DVD
7. In
Cleaning dirty CD and DVD, do NOT use alcohol. Only used Distilled Water and a
Lint Free Cloth and wipe gently in a circular pattern ONLY to avoid damaging
the writing surface of the CD or DVD
8. Do
not store CD and DVD’s in Sleeves or Cases. Store them in their original Jewel
Cases to avoid damaging the writing surface of the CD or DVD
For CD and DVD Burning as listed in “Best
free CD and DVD burning software for all your optical-disc burning desires”,
published August 17, 2013 By Brandon Widder, DigitalTrends

free DVD burning software: 8 programs to burn media and backups”,

you can use the following freeware:
Windows

Mac OS
If you planning on making a playable DVD that can be
played in an ordinary DVD player, you’ll need DVD Authoring Software as listed
in “Best
Free DVD Authoring Software”, published
July 7 2013 3:31 by site.editor, Tech Support Alert.
The list above merely creates an *.iso file and burns it to a CD or DVD. DVD
Authoring Software will package your Videos into a professional DVD with Menus,
Chapters and Pages similar to those that you can buy on the Street.
In fact, you can use the software listed below to
make your own DVD Movies from the Videos you may have downloaded using the
instructions in my blog
article entitled “UWI'splanning to increase all Tuition by 5.5% come the new Academic Year 2013-2014 -How to Download ANY Video, including Facebook Videos, Convert and Free VideoHosting Online”:
As the above listed software are freeware, download
them and play with them, as the advantages they have over each other mainly lies
in how user-friendly they are to use and their ability to help you
professionally author your work into a DVD.
I hope this helps. Sharing is caring so share this
post with as many of your friends who may be looking for free options to burn Videos
and Audio onto CD and DVD as well as professionally presenting their work on a
DVD for a prospective client.
