Howdy Marc

Ok - well, the opening (tdf logo) and the ending (cc3 license) are
separate snippets, to be re-used - so I will work them as such. The
closing screen is already 2.2 seconds (with animation) which is plenty
long IMO but I'll try 2.5 and see..

As for the text sections - I increased the static image by 1 second in
this last run and did not snip out any of the fade in, fade out. (which
I had done in the previous)

I can push the time another .5 seconds on the text I suppose - one thing
however, this is not intended to be a tutorial, it is a 'barker', the
idea is to catch attention and to get people to ask questions, in other
words the object is to get them to engage with a person in the booth,
not just with the video. At least that is my goal

All that said - I'll run again with that extra .5 second on the text and
pass it along.

Thanks much,

Drew
