Video: Fun Photo Composite with Xara Xtreme

[steve.ledger]

Here's my very first video tutorial - tada!

A 3½ minute flash video test demo of a photo composite method using Xara Xtreme 4.
I'll do a better version when I get the opportunity as this was just a quickie I did for fun, so I should plan to get some better shots and create a better image.
For best playback, please pause the video and allow it to buffer before begining.
I apologise for the sniffles, I had a sneezing 'bout just as I was ready to record the audio!!

As the flash file is much to large to attach to a post here I've uploaded an .mp4 copy to YouTube and embedded the High Quality version here.
If you are on a slow connection this may take a little while to start, so just hit the pause ll button and let it buffer before playing in full.



A full size and VHQ version is also available on my new blog setup last evening just for things like this.

Perhaps I'll create more vids later and hopefully polish the narration

Ooops - I originally posted in the wrong forum...

Great video tutorial Steve and an excellent example of using the numeric keypads minus key to clip an image. That's quite a marked Australian twang you've developed over the years. Cheers.

Quite likely - I'm a bit of a chameleon in that respect.
Put me in a room full of toffs and I'll have a plum in my mouth inside of an hour

Very nice video tutorial Steve. I did not know about the numberpad minus key crop feature.

[Egg Bramhill]

No Bill, nor did I. It's one Sledge revealed in this thread. I find it very useful for croping screen grabs.

Well done Steve! Easy to follow and clear narration. The old K.I.S.S. principle wins every time.

Excellent video tutorial and great tip with the minus tool. Thanks, Sledger.

Nice job on the video tutorial, Steve. I thought you had used a voice double.
Saludos,
