New Heart-Beat Film Festival Releases
Heart-Beat Releasing Two New Films in Festival CircuitAlmost everyone has heard of Sundance Film Festival, and almost every year in winter, tons of film fanatics make pilgrimage to Park City, UT-home of the largest Independent Film Festival in the United States. At the event, visitors can meet filmmakers and watch several independent films. Let me tell you something, you don't have to come in winter to meet a filmmaker and see his/her work. At Park City, a film production company called Heart-Beat Productions is there 365 days a year. Founded by writer/director J.L. Topkis in 2004, Heart-Beat has already gotten major acclaim in film festivals across the country. Last year, ESCAPISM premiered at The Newport Beach Film Festival in California, and took home Best Student Film at The Bare Bones International Film Festival (you can watch it here). Having made the film at age 17, Topkis and his team were surprised at just how many festivals they got into (many weren't even entered in the Student category). This year, Heart-Beat is hoping to run the festival circuit with their two new films, TWICE OVER and SHE IS. J.L. Topkis is a Film Production major at Emerson College, and is currently writing a feature film slated for independent production in 2012. "We've been setting goals for ourselves since the 8th grade, and we haven't failed to meet one yet. We're going to go all the way because we're never going to stop working towards what we want as careers."
Disc2day is proud to be the preferred duplicator for all of J.L. Topkis's DVD duplication and DVD replication needs. Call us and speak to one of our friendly staff members about your project and we will do our best to provide you with top quality service.

Understanding Resolution
Understanding image resolution is absolutely crucial when you’re working with graphics since it is involved in the output of your images both onscreen and in print. If you want your artwork to print sharp, the resolution needs to be higher. What is Resolution? Resolution is the measurement of how many dots/pixels fit into one inch (hence the term, Dots Per Inch). The higher resolution, the sharper the image will be. In the print world, the standard resolution for the final layout is 300 DPI—anything lower than that will look fuzzy, blurry, or jagged edges/pixilated. One of the main thing that a lot of people misunderstand is enlarging the file to 300 DPI from 72 DPI doesn’t necessarily fix the resolution problem (Resolution and image size are inversely proportional to each other. Enlarge an image, the resolution decreases; reduce an image, the resolution increases.)Monitors on the other hand usually have a display setting of 72 DPI. If you know that the image you are working on will end up on websites or screens, 72 DPI if sufficient. However, it is important to know that using images from online is not the best way to go for print because the majority of the files on the web are set to 72 dpi for fast loading.
Here at Disc2day, we highly recommend artists and graphic designers to provide their art files at the highest resolution possible for discs (CD or DVD), posters, and inserts (entrapment, traycards, etc) printing for better quality and the best looking for your CD/DVD package!
