    DV Elements FAQ

    What do I get?
    What you get is 30 DV quality animated loops that you can integrate into your DV timeline. What you can do with these gorgeous loops is up to you. Each one has a beautiful, flowing movement to them. The colors are clean so you can easily superimpose titles & graphics over them. For around $100, this a very inexpensive product that can make your productions look much more professional.

    How do I use DV elements?
    The DV elements movies are stored as QuickTime movies on a CDROM disc. Just insert the CD into your computer and import the desired movie into your non-linear editor or compositing application. From there they can be used as moving backgrounds behind pictures, movies, and text. For increased performance, we recommend you render the movies into the codec of your particular system before importing into your movie projects.

    What program do I need to use DV elements?
    Any application that can import QuickTime movie files. DV Logic uses the Photo-JPEG compression codec so that the movies will be compatible with a broad range of applications. A sample list includes:

    • Adobe Premiere
    • Adobe After Effects
    • Eyeon Digital Fusion
    • Media 100
    • Avid Xpress
    • Ulead MediaStudio

    Why are your loops cheaper than other companies?

    • Reason #1 We figure that if the product was cheaper, more people would be able to buy it.
    • Reason #2 We are editors too and we also have a hard time justifying $400 backgrounds for our video projects.
    • Reason #3 We have a low overhead and we just pass the savings on to you.

    Don't confuse less cost with less quality. All of DV Logic's footage is digitally created with only a minimum amount of compression. The reason why the file sizes are so small is that the frames are completely noise free allowing the JPEG compression algorithms to shrink the files without any visual loss in quality.

    Will DV elements work for both a Mac and PC?
    Yes. The CD is an ISO 9660 format allowing both Macintosh and Windows machines to read the contents. The QuickTime files use the non-proprietary Photo-JPEG codec allowing any computer with the QuickTime player to view the files.

    How many seconds in each loop?
    The DV elements loops vary in length from 200 frames to 500 frames. The average length is 10 seconds.

    How do I make the loops longer?
    All you need to do to make the loops last longer is place the movies back to back on your timeline. Because they are seamless loops. you won't be able to tell where they stop and start.
