  • packaging for delivering finished product help

    #1
    My friend and I have started a design company and have had great business thus far with web design and hosting solutions. Recently we introduced video production and have finished our first video for an industrial company's product.

    I need to deliver them a DVD master copy of the video. I'm trying to figure out the most professional way to deliver this. I'd like some kind of professional packaging or something. A nice dvd case with a label or something and a packet that talks about the video. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas that you've used to deliver a product in the mail professionally? It seems a little amateur to stuff the dvd in a brown envelope and write their address on the front and send it off.

    Razuel, it's a little slow on the forums on weekends, so you might want to come back and bump this on Monday.

    The video production companies that we use at the agency where I work don't really do anything fancy. They label their DVD's with their logo and sometimes will find a nice jewel case to put the DVD in, but apart from that, it's nothing super extravagant.

      Elegant Packaging can give you some good ideas. I'm fairly certain they design/print though. No spec sheets or upload instructions.

      Depends on what the budget is and what the overall project total is. If it's worth it to you to invest in a case or two of higher-end snap boxes or if you keep it simple with the cardboard type sleeves. Quantities for custom printing though on the cardboard. You can slip-sleeve the snap boxes.

      Someplace like Sleeve City might have something you want.

      Most media we get from production companies is very casual as it gets incorporated into interactive software. But it all comes in some kind of hard shell to protect what is usually a rather valuable-to-the-client investment.

        To be honest, I'd find the fancy packaging a bit unprofessional. Look, you're being paid to produce video, not packaging. If this were a product going out to consumers, then it would need fancy packaging and stuff, which someone would need to be contracted to do. For delivery of a master, I'd go with a jewel case because it needs protection. The disk label - well, I'd expect to see your logo, a clear label of what the disk is, and your contact details.

          Yeah, your logo and blurb. I didn't mean to do up a fancy label for the content of the CD. That's presumptuous.

            Pretty much what Hewligan said. He described it a lot better than I did.

              I'm a big fan of Jewelboxing. I used them a few times and the thing I love the most is that they give you everything you'd need to make the DVD project look good (cases, liners, etc...). Hope that helps!
