=== Ideas for resource creation ===
# 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.
# You can also use an existing video and dub it in another language
# Please make sure that in both (1) and (2) the original visual resource/ video is licensed for reuse with modification.
