Thanks for the kind words and critique. I agree about the audio. The lighting is off as well, I think. I don't currently have access to a regular DV cam. I had tried an analog camera and then transfered to digital but the results were not good and it was time consuming and awkward. This one is done with a regular digital still camera (Nikon CoolPix 5100) that has a video mode. That made it easier, but the built in mic is not great, there's no external mic jack, and the camera wasn't sensitive enough to handle the low light. I'll have to find a new method or get some different equipment.

I debated the flow with myself. I originally thought about doing the typical presentation layout: Intro, topics, review. I opted for a more story-like script instead.

Hi Greg - I watched the video all the through. I think you did an excellent job of explaining and also on the video production - integrating the demo into the video. I love the voice on the demo and don't know the person who belongs to the voice on the video part. So this is good to know - how using different technologies can produce different results in the final product. For this being scripted, I really could not tell until the end when you looked down to read. You have a really nice video presence - but need a different microphone for the recording. You seemed very comfortable in front of the camera (had a Brad Pitt quality about you). The flow was good - and I think I could actually delete a user and do something with their stuff after watching this. Hurray for you Greg!!! Good job!!
