Hi Carol,

Thank you too for your feedback.

I am assuming that the link you are referring to is the button for information on 'what is a keyword' at the end if the introduction section.

This is a link to an external URL so in this case it is best to open up in a new window. I could open it up in the same window however - because I have no way of editing the content in this external URL - I would have no way to include a link back to continue the movie.

When you do open this new window the movie should still be paused and not move on to the next section whilst you are viewing the external window. I will have to check if there is an issue there.

Cheers, Leon.

Hi Mouser,

You have some good points there.

I will look at tightening up some of the narration with the animations as you have indicated.

Your point about not explaining terms such as ROI is also taken. I think I will avoid
abbreviating any narration (as per the text script given) even if it has been introduced
in a previous chapter. A number of people have brought this point up.

As for the automatically advanced chapters - I will leave this as is for now until further feedback indicates any
negatives in this area.

Thanks for your feedback mouser...the more the merrier...

Cheers,

Leon.

Living Room / Help - Please Give Feedback On My Video!!

Hi to all,

I am currently a finalist in a e-learning type Video Demo Contest and
urgently require feedback.

My entry can be viewed at:

http://demo.sitesell.../sbivfinal/index.htm

The contest is to translate a product instruction guide into video.
It will supplement or may even replace an online text Guide and key Help & Strategies
pages.

The guidance, or rules for the competition I was given where as follows:

"Communicate! The video should clearly and cleanly explain the WHAT
and the HOW-TO of the text on DAY 2 (Chapter 2) of the guide."

I urgently require feedback on my entry as a finalist.

I will be able to submit changes by the 29 Sept 05 - before the final judgment.
If I win...I get the job to translate a whole range of instructional texts to
video.

Please also take the time to view the other three finalist videos...
I really need comment on which one out of the four you would vote for as being the best,
from a user's point of view and why...I need this view from people who do not already know
the product.

All the finalist videos can be found at:

Leon (Thats me):  http://demo.sitesell.../sbivfinal/index.htm

Kelly:            http://demo.sitesell...y/01_Day2_Intro.html

Marcus:           http://demo.sitesell...om/marcus/day-2.html

Pete & Dee:       http://demo.sitesell...ion-guide-daytwo.htm

Obviously I would like you to vote for mine...but please state objectively
which one you think is the best at communicating to its audience and why.

I will be directing the judges to this forum to view the comments.

Your feedback will be much appreciated...

Cheers Leon.
