A Statement from the Producer:
Although there are more than 30 different Holidays depending upon who you ask, this collection covers a lot of them, leaving out any which might either be considered "controversial", or simply difficult or impossible to do accurately, in order to please "everyone's personal imagination" of what would be done for any of the holidays not represented in this collection. [Folks believe me!!! in the USA which is always a 50-50 divided group of people, on any and ALL issues, It's extremely easy to create a Video Effect, or even Movie, Book, TV Show, or website, which either pleases or upsets a great majority of people. Therefore we decided to leave this collection to contain mostly Happy and Humorous Scenes, and in doing so…answer the 20+ Year Customer Calls for more fx besides Halloween and Christmas, JON HYERS
READ THIS IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY DVDS:
1. This DVD is designed for DVD/Blueray Players, NOT COMPUTERS!!! Computers almost always lack the REPEAT CHAPTER FUNCTION required. ALL standalone players have the REPEAT FUNCTION. If you are NOT WILLING to turn on the power, press PLAY, and turn on REPEAT Chapter on your desired effect - DON'T BUY THIS DVD.
2. If you lack the technical skills required to use a common DVD player remote control, and are NOT willing to read the instructions manual for your DVD/BD player to learn how to turn on the simple REPEAT CHAPTER, PLEASE don't buy this DVD.
3. Read my INSTRUCTIONS GUIDE TO RUNNING A DVD PLAYER AT THE BOTTOM PART OF THE TEXT ON MY DESCRIPTION. I am very sorry I have to print this, but 1-2% of the orders - customers have NO idea how to run a DVD, which is much simpler than running a cell phone.
4. SIDEWAYS PICTURES: There are some sideways clips here for Vertical windows, NO it's not a mistake. Read the details below.
HOW TO PLAY A DVD:
We sell DVDs with many chapters to give choices, rather than ONE scene per DVD, which would mean almost 6500 DVD titles. DVD players were not invented by ME obviously, and they were designed, just as any Hollywood MOVIE or TV show on DVD or blue ray were designed, to allow you to play single chapters, even groups of them. So here's what you do. Chapters allow a DVD like my 100+ Holiday Decor DVDs to contain 20 or more scenes on one disc. It's a great idea, it save you money by not having to buy 6500 DVDs, and it only takes a tiny bit of learning [way less than your cell phone, or driving you car takes]. HERE IS WHAT TO DO…
DVD player remotes, of which I included some pictures, are what you use to turn on REPEAT CHAPTER, OR REPEAT ALL. Just like you gotta use the remote control to use cable TV, or open your car door, or open your garage door etc. DVD player remotes allow you to do many things including REPEAT CHAPTER. It's a common feature to all players. If your remote does not have the word REPEAT on it, consult the manual, or go online to read the online manual. I UNDERSTAND that the concept of having to push a Button on a remote control unit, MIGHT be new to you, it's new to a few people, but buttons are very common on many devices.
You use the PLAY button to play the DVD, and you don't have to use the DVD MENU to select chapters. You can use the SKIP or NEXT button to quickly skip from Chapter to Chapter, and very quickly in a matter of minutes sample the entire DVD - all without being FORCED back to the main menu as happens with Inferior DVD programming. This RANDOM ACCESS FUNCTION was chosen by producer JON HYERS back in 2001 and continues to be the method of choice for his DVDs.
When the scene you want is playing turn on repeat chapter. It's easy. ALL DVD players have this function. And All my DVDs since 2000 have the chapters, and all Hollywood movies on DVD have chapters, that you MUST use the remote to play. Same situation. You can email me if you want to talk about this.
SIDEWAYS PICTURES: There are some sideways clips here for Vertical windows, NO it's not a mistake. One can't do sideways by accident, we're a multi-million dollar commercial production studio and We Don't Accidentally Knock our Cameras Sideways as a few have complained we must have done. Its done for TALL THIN Windows. And the same applies to any CGI FX which are also done vertically. It's on purpose, and here's why.
Hundreds of customers have requested this, as far back as 2005, and we didn't start doing it until 2015. WHY would this ever be done? If your window is tall and thin….say for example 2 feet wide by 4 feet tall, that folks is a WideScreen video turned 90. So, by turning the projector 90 degrees, and having a portrait image allows an image that is Twice the Brightness, with Twice the Resolution in a tall thin window. It's 100% True. If you were instead to have a character standing head-to-foot in the center of a normal Widescreen Image, and project that into your TALL THIN window, you have just decreased the brightness by 50% and wasted 50%-75% of the image to the left and right of the window. So this is done for all of the people who want to have a few choices for tall thin windows. I admit we need to make a new tutorial about this concept, because Jon Hyers jumping on board to this is a new thing. And FOLKS who are complaining about it…I didn't want to do it to begin with - because a) Too many people would be clueless as to why and b) It DOUBLES MY WORK!! Yeah it does…I have to make more scenes!
Who invented this??? PROJECT RUNWAY people!! Yeah the fashion industry, who place 90 degree flipped TVS in clothing stores for women, and play TV shows of runway shows, where their Cameramen [like ours] purposely flipped their Cameras 90 degrees when filming the TV show. Why did they do that???? If you ever watched a runway show or saw Project Runway, The Models they use on those shows are 5-10 times taller then they are wide! Yeah, its true as the Women's Organizations complain about all the time and the bad message it sends to the kids. But the shape of the models caused this filming to be done flipped 90.
But in terms of GEOMETRY, the ultra skinny fashion models DO FIT inside the 90 degree frame, much better than then inside the normal widescreen frame where they would end up being tiny figures inside the TV picture with up to 75% of the picture are being wasted. So the idea is sound, given that the average Biped Human or Monster fits pretty well inside the 90 degree frame, maximizing both sharpness and brightness. So we made these Vertical Scenes by request. Some customers complained…"Well I don't like it sideways". FINE, don't use those chapters. They are there for NO extra charge to help those who want them. Can you get a special
DVD with the Vertical Scenes removed??? ABSOLUTELY, just paypal Jon Hyers $1000.00 for a custom edit, and I'll make one for you. Otherwise use that handy
dandy REMOTE CONTROL and skip chapters avoiding the vertical ones. It's just like a Scary BOOK, if there is a Chapter YOU don't want to read, SKIP IT.
