When you think about it, a CD or DVD has a lot in common with a binder\u2014both have colorful, attractive covers on the outside and a wealth of information on the inside. Combining these two resources lets you create an amazing multimedia presentation, especially when you use a CD\/DVD binder. CD\/DVD binders<\/a> provide the best of both worlds by storing papers and<\/em> electronic data. <\/p>\n

With so much important info in one place, you have to create a binder design that’s worthy to contain it all. Browse our 70 styles of custom binders<\/a> to find the one that’s right for your multimedia presentation.<\/p>\n

\"Full<\/a>

Add color to your CD binder designs to make your design come alive.<\/p><\/div>\n

Add Color<\/h3>\n

The best way to make your CD binders really pop out is to add a splash of color. You can use ink-printing options to get the color you desire, even if you’re using white stock. In fact, printing with color on white stock will actually create a bolder, truer color than using colored stocks. Printing options include full-color printing, which is recommended for designs that use many colors, and PMS printing, which uses fewer colors at once but creates a more vibrant color tone. Creative binder designs<\/a> that use color tend to attract more attention than boring monochromatic designs.<\/p>\n

Photos and Graphics<\/h3>\n

Add brightly colored photos and other graphics to your CD binder design for an added visual element that will let recipients know what to expect when they open it up. If you are selling a product or service that is easily photogenic, then you should lead with that front and center. If not, considers some other positive imagery that can be integrated into your design, such as pictures of happy customers and staff members.<\/p>\n

You should take every opportunity you can to enhance your brand identity\u2014even when designing your presentation binders with DVD holders. Incorporate your company logo into your custom design in order to build up awareness of your brand. Brand identity is about more than just logos\u2014your binder design should also reflect your company\u2019s color scheme, style aesthetic and mission statement.<\/p>\n

\"Customized

A CD\/DVD pocket provides extra design space for you to utilize.<\/p><\/div>\n

Pocket and Slit Customization<\/h3>\n

The shape, style and location of your binder\u2019s interior pockets are just a few ways that you can add more customization options to your design. You can opt for a disk-sized pocket for your CD or a disk-sized slit in a full-sized pocket. CD pockets let you add full-color photos or text, which makes it stand out visually when you open the binder. A CD slit lets you maximize your space by letting you have two-full sized pockets for storage or a full-sized pocket and a blank interior page to use for design purposes.<\/p>\n

Customize the interior of your disk binder to include pictures, graphics, text or logo. Your interior doesn\u2019t have to be overly graphical\u2014you can use printing options to simply give the inside some color. Designing the interior of CD binders is easier than document binders because you have more interior design room to work with since CD pockets are small and CD slits can be incorporated into preexisting pockets.<\/p>\n

Embossing and Foil Options<\/h3>\n

The embossing process prints a relief image directly into the stock of your CD binder, creating a visual effect that can be felt by touch. If you want your embossed image to stand out even further, consider adding foil stamping to the mix. Both effects are powerful when used on their own, but when working in tandem they produce a high-quality classy effect that begs to be touched.
\n

\"Creative<\/a>

Get creative in your designs and don't be afraid to add a splash of color or some interesting visual elements.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Get Creative<\/h3>\n

The world\u2019s most famous fashion designers didn\u2019t make a name for themselves by playing it safe\u2014sometimes you need to go big or go home. Consider the custom design options available to you and find new ways to think outside of the box. The best custom CD binders are imaginative and fun, while still portraying your company\u2019s personality in a way that is appropriate and accurate.<\/p>\n
