Hello, I finally have moment that I can write this, my name is Daniel after talking with Drew (who brought me on board with openSUSE) I am planing on working Scale this year. I am wanting to give back to community by helping create a few videos that can be playing at the booth. I need a contact in the Art department who is willing to help me if I need any artwork to help with the videos.

I was think three videos: 1. One showing off the different desktops. 2. Showing off the different sub projects for openSUSE (IE obs, openQA Ect). 3. showing off the new features of 12.2.......I am also open for suggestions.

I like the idea of having some videos playing at the booth. I like it because there is some real value is having some movement at the booth and something that people can stop and watch if they are having an introverted moment and don't want to stop and talk to one of us. Also, it could give them some food for thought to form some questions to ask us, or spur their curiosity enough that they grab a promo DVD, or even just checkout opensuse.org later. It can also be great as something to connect with people over -- a conversation starter.

If you would like some help, I can use recordmydesktop to show off KDE at least (I have been using KDE since late 2003, so I know my way around fairly well). I have an older system I could install with the different desktops that we can use to grab some video of them too... though they may not look as fluid as the KDE video I can make (I really have not used another desktop other than KDE in some time)... just let me know what you have in mind and how I can help.

I think that recording various desktops is a great idea, since you can make something for KDE maybe there are people around who can do that in GNOME/XFCE and LXDE, unfortunately (not that I fell bad about it :D ) I use KDE too, so are there any volunteers that can do that in other GUI's. Drew it might be helpfull if you have some kind of a 'script'. Meaning how do you think/want this recording to last and what kind of stuff you would like to be shown in it. This would be a great help for people who can actually help. If nobody steps up I could try to make something in a VBOX or try to motivate people to do it :D. Last but not least, those kind of videos could be used in other events too. Kostas Koudaras
