The Official Apple iPad Video Demo Tutorial
This morning our team at Fresh Consulting, sat around our many computer screens watching live video and blogging streams of the Apple keynote announcing the launch of the iPad.
Available in 60 to 90 days depending on the model, this new device ranges in price from $499 to $829.
I went ahead and embedded the eight minute video Apple just released featuring their design and development team discussing all the specs and use cases. Check it out!

Today PowerPoint ... tomorrow, the world
I was recently asked by a friend for some insight into converting a rich, multimedia PowerPoint presentation into video for YouTube consumption. It is not complex but there are a few options and avenues you could take. Thus, with these suggestions, I recommend testing and experimenting with a few slides that represent the full range of animation, sound and video your PowerPoint contains.
One thing to keep in mind when converting from PowerPoint to a video file is that YouTube prefers the codec MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 format, but they will take other formats. Also, the less re-encoding you do, the better. In other words, the closer the eventual video file is to the original, the better.
PowerPoint to YouTube via three options:
(1) First, you could go from PPT to Flash .... then from Flash to Video but that is three steps ...
(2) More easily, you could go from PPT to Video by simply recording your screen OR by using authorstream ... also, within authorstream, they have a nice app that easily embeds YouTube videos in your PPT while maintaining the fluidity of the presentation
(3) Finally, you could convert PPT to Keynote and then using your Mac, use the export to Quicktime option
(once in Mac, you could also use this converter to go from flash to video)
All of this will take some experimentation ensuring that the eventual video file grabs all your video, sound, transitions and animations.
When you decide to finally share, there are private channels that you can customize, like ClipCord, to share the video - you could also use HP's Gabble or Shutterfly. That way you are not public, you are not on YouTube (if the agency and others are concerned with privacy; even though you YouTube you can privately share video) and you do not have to email a big file.
Ultimately of course you would want to take the PPT to the world, and then blast the video using YouTube and all the other sites as indicated below.
