There are a lot of persona[s] I have tried for Firefox that did not work
for me. Same will go for LO 4.0.0.
There is some easy instructions on the FF site to help people create
your own persona[s]. I may be creating a version myself, specifically
working for LO 4.0.0. If I do, I will place it on the FF so if you
search for LibreOffice, you will find it.
The hardest thing is deciding what you want the top menu bar to look
like and doing the image editing. After that it is a very simple
process. So simple, that there many thousands of them out there.

Hi :)
The girl/lady reading the script has used LibreOffice a couple of times but
really had no idea how to do the things she was reading about and still doesn't
know. To be fair neither do i but she has a nice voice so i might listen to it
enough to work out what it's about. It might even help me with my work as i
use a CMS (one i find a bit of a pita tbh) quite frequently.
The main point is that if articles are promoting the CMIS thing then it would
be sensible if they gave a link to further info about it and all i know is that
video. So, i am trying to give the link in the comments section in some of the
articles Italo gave us links to.
It's interesting to hear about a 2minute rule. I guessed at 3 minutes a couple
of months ago so it's good to know i wasn't tooo far off.
Hopefully for that video, people watching will mostly be advanced users ready
to commit to the full 5mins and the nice voice might help keep them focused.

Tom :)

Hello!
I have just watched the video provided:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2bbnyAjMeM&feature=youtu.be
I think this video is tidy. (I have not used CMIS.) The voice is nice.
I think I have kept my video as short as about two minutes. I think people will
not have the patience. (Most people I know do not have patience.)
I also feel that "two minutes" is the key. If a video is longer than that, then
the process must be very long. Very serious users will spend more than two minutes on
watching such a long video.
If I need to use CMIS tomorrow (being very nervous), I will need to know how to
do it as soon as possible. I suggest giving the audience the most important
steps first.
The link mentioned is for more advanced users, I believe.
Regards,
C. H. D.

Hi :)
Nicely done :) Have you sent it to the documentation mailing list? They might
be interested in putting it on their page of video tutorials.
Btw have you seen this one
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2bbnyAjMeM&feature=youtu.be
that uses an unusual sound-track and a minimalist voice to help keep people's
attention?
I've seen a lot of YouTube HowTos that have sound-tracks that quickly get very
out-dated by choosing music that is very fashionable but that lacks class. I
don't like the particular piece of music in that link i just gave but i do like
the way that it's unusual enough that people are unlikely to have heard it
before and certainly not enough to get tired of it.
Also a lot of times videos have constant chatter going on, often without really
adding
adding anything useful. Lots of "umm" and "ahh" and "Here you can see that i am doing"
or "As you can see". The constant flow of words makes it difficult to translate and yet keep the timings
good.
What i really liked about the voice in the link i gave was that the speaking
parts were short and distinct so that when it was translated from Danish into
English the chap was able to chop up Pamela's voice and place the comments in
exactly the right places. So, Pamela only had to leave decent pauses between
statements. She didn't have to get the pauses exactly right because Leif was
going to chop up the voice-audio and place the parts appropriately to fit the
video and the music.
I think the only thing missing is an srt file under the video so that people
could download the srt and the video in order to see the subtitles.
Alternatively just some way people could get the script in some other text
format. Either way something for blind users to be able to get through their
screen-readers.
Anyway i really just wondered what you thought of the link. Have you done a
lot of these sorts of things? Yours looked like you knew what you were doing.
If you do write a script i might be able to get Pamela or another lady to read
it for you as long as the script was quite short and if they could re-arrange
it a bit to make it flow better when saying the words out loud.
Regards from
Tom :)
