Ideas for resource creation

  1. This is very useful for creating simple video/screenshot resources by adding narration to a process being done using an application. For example, you can run a simulation on your screen or an image slide show and add your narration to it as the application runs.
  2. You can also use an existing video and dub it in another language
  3. Please make sure that in both (1) and (2) the original visual resource/ video is licensed for reuse with modification.
