Hi all,
i want to make a promotional dvd for my small company, first off i dont have any equipment? what should i buy?
second what happens after i have bought the equipment, i have ideas of what i want, i want a streaming video with a voice over, how do i do this, what software will i need? the dvd needs to be about 8 minutes long.
I am a complete novice, so please help me.

Basically you'll need a camera, a decent mike, an editing system, some DVD authoring software (which may be included in the editing program), and a DVD burner. Depending on what you go for you're probably looking at 2,000-5,000 pounds for the lot.
Are you planning this as a one-off, or would you be making movies regularly? If it's just one DVD, then you'd probably be better to hire the equipment rather than buy.
thanks for the info. this maybe a silly question but where would i go to hire the equipment?

Where in the UK are you? There are a lot of rental companies in and around London, for example.
what DVD authoring software would you recommend?

Not sure: I use ReelDVD because it came with my Avid software, but it's a bit crap.
