Abstract
A method for producing an interactive presentation for a DVD video player, based upon a slide presentation, like a PowerPoint presentation in which the slide presentation is received, slide content is extracted and associated with a video frame at a position within the video frame based upon the slide presentation. The video frame may be linked with another video frame to provide a user-navigable path between the video frames. The slide content may be positioned within a safe area of the video frame to facilitate display of the presentation on different monitors and televisions. The video frame may be combined with a video clip that loops indefinitely, drawing the audience'"'"'s attention to the slide content. In one embodiment, an image of a navigation bar is inserted into a title layer and controls are associated with the navigation bar.
