Hi Shawn

I'm sure that you could make some very good videos that can be used to
demonstrate the features of LibreOffice.

We're developing some design ideas that could be showcased very
effectively on YouTube. I personally think there is an opportunity to
show why LibreOffice, when it has incorporated some of these ideas, is a
better productivity tool than MS Office. It could be done on several
levels right down to specific topics such as automatic tabbing.

It could be possible to even have built into LibreOffice, links to Help
Videos on various topics - just a click away to make it very convenient.
That would give it a competitive advantage over other products.

This idea has many legs! There could be a role to coordinate a sub-team
of design members working together on this.

Cheers

Dear Design Team,

Hi and my name is Shawn Beasley. I am chatting with the document team
to find out where it would be valuable to do videos, in YouTube, to
accompany the documentation. There are a lot of users that need the
information in this format as well. My current videos revolve around
OTRS, and I have finally got so far as to know what I want to
transport, and how to make the editing process a breeze. What I would
like to do with Libreoffice is to help with post-/production of
YouTube videos with a recognizable, consistent, and attractive style.
I use a Mac in combination with screenflow, keynote, Gimp, and other
tools to achieve a rich content screen cast with various affects and
music to send emotion to the user.

I run three types of videos currently. They can all be found at my
YouTube page: http://youtube.com/user/diginin1974. Some of the older
videos are a little rough. And the consistency I was talking about is
the last few videos. You will notice the OTRS Inc wrapper and music.
But, even in the early vids, you can see the work done with Keynotes
and the movement done with screenflow. I think, that with your help,
we can make high emotion videos to complement the documentation, and I
am very excited to see who would like to be involved here.

Thanks for you time!

As this topic keeps coming up, could one of you write up a wiki page on this so that we do not lose the important points? Many people have expressed their thoughts and suggestions on video productions but not much has come of it. Perhaps if we put it down on "paper" more people will find it appealing enough to work on it.

We need to investigate video production from a design point of view as well as from a marketing point of view. IMO, the design aspect should come first.

BTW ... we do have a LibreOffice YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/libreofficeVols and Drew is involved in this. ... Please correct me if I am wrong in pointing this out.

Cheers

Marc
