CD-ROM

If your goal is to put out a reference or training product an interactive CD-ROM may be just the ticket. Say you have a software product people need to learn how to use. Occasionally a user may want to learn everything there is to know about your program. Most likely, though, they just want to learn how to make your product do the one thing they want it to do. Interactive CD-ROMs offer the user an index which allows the user to instantly jump to the topic of interest at that moment.

Interactive CD-ROMs are used on computers and that means you don't have to limit their content to video. Click on Button A and see a beautiful HTML page. Click on Button B and get a gorgeous still photo. Button C brings up animated computer pages depicting how a piece of software works while a soundtrack explains what's happening. Button D may offer a PDF file, or MS Word file, or an Excel file, print a required form with precise formatting or send you to a specific internet site. And don't forget about audio files. We are making CDs that use your computer browser to play MP3 audio files along with Adobe PDF files—an entire three day seminar can be put onto one CD and played on your computer or MP3 player. You get the picture - anything a computer can do an interactive CD-ROM can do, including showing video clips either full screen or in a window.

Good scripting makes an interactive CD-ROM easy to understand and a breeze to maneuver around in, and we have the expertise and the knowhow here to make your CD work for you.
