creating videos of projects

Hey Jim,

this is great info, thanks. I bet lots of us need to do this.

on a related note Jon Udell does something similar he calls
'screencasting' & has a useful page of resources and explanations:
http://weblog.infoworld.com/udell/2005/02/21.html#a1182

as well as a good general introduction (with how-to info): http://
digitalmedia.oreilly.com/2005/11/16/what-is-screencasting.html

he mentions a mac-based option, combining Snapz Pro X and iMovie HD
as well.
