Two interviews with ShowMeDo authors, two more to come

[Ian Ozsvald]

If you're curious to know how some of our authors create their videos, I've just published two interviews for Lucas Holland and Gasto.  These fine chaps are two of our longer-running authors:

http://blog.procasts.co.uk/2009/02/interview-gabrial-hasbun-open-source-screencaster-at-showmedocom/

They talk about how and why they make the videos, why they think they work, their tools etc.  I'll have another for Horst shortly (Horst - your wrote so much I have to find time to process it all :-) and one with another screencaster of open-src software who isn't yet a ShowMeDoer, but will be soon (Remy of http://jqueryfordesigners.com/ ).

If I get good feedback on these then I'll do some more.  They'll be linked in ShowMeDo under the 'how do I make a screencast?' section once we have the new site up (I'm still working on it...it is getting there!).

If you're on twitter, I'm making occasional announces there too about new videos, progress on the new server etc:

Here are the follow-up interviews.  The first is with our Horst he uses Linux to make screencasts with school kids:

The second is with Remy, founder of the open-src jQuery For Designers site - he's not (yet) a ShowMeDo member but plans to upload some of his screencasts soon.  He's a Mac user:

Both of the interviews are long and full of information, Horst's makes plenty of points that are relevant to ShowMeDo.

Cheers,
Ian.
