i am almost tempted to dip my toe in this. Oldd habits die hard. Great job on this.
Excellent show!!!
Good show John. Speaking of RSS feeds, I’m just now seeing this b/c bloglines hasn’t updated your feed in over a week. :-(
Great video! Perfect niche to plunge into. I will also be sending my non-techie friends in the direction of that video as well when I explain to them about RSS.
I am just starting up video tutorials for my company and I have been keeping it pretty simple so far– just imovie and photoshop.
Here’s the youtube channel if you’re curious:

but I have a quick question: what was your basic set-up to achieve the ‘powerpoint’ feel and green screen? Was this “Final Cut Pro”, or another mix of plugins and Windows media maker/etc?
Good stuff! Keep it up!
