[Users] Getting some 3.1 screencasts

Hi everyone, At the team meeting today Jason Clift suggested that it would be great to have some screencasts for the 3.1 release. I agree. So let's see if we can make some! To spread the load as much as possible, here's what I propose: 1. We come up with a set (5-10) of demo stories we want to tell in the wiki. These should contain: * The feature we want to demo * The "before recording" set-up that needs to be done * The steps to demo the feature * A quick script that someone can follow to explain what they're doing. I'd like a few of these scripts to be for existing oVirt features (say, migrating a VM to a different node) and a few to be for features which are new in 3.1 (see the release notes at http://ovirt.org/wiki/Release_Notes_Draft for details there, we should pick one or two nice visible features like all-in-one install). 2. From the scripts, we record the demos as .ogv using RecordMyDesktop or GNOME Shell's built-in desktop recording 3. Finally, we do voice-overs to add a sound track to the demo (and if we have any skilled sound engineers, some tasteful CC licenced background music would be great!) This way, we've broken down the creation of 5 screencasts into 15 different byte-sized tasks - script, video, voiceover - none of which should take someone more that 20 minutes or half an hour - which hopefully will make it easier to get them done together. How does this plan sound? If it sounds good, which features do you think we should screencast as top priority? Thanks!
