Again, the critics have it all wrong. I am not a big DeMillework fan as
you all know, but this this time Cecil rose to the occasion to take
this basic plot and turn it into a masterpiece. Look out Scorsese! Not
since Last Tango In Paris has a screwing been so thoughtfully
documented. The ever-so-popular DeWalt put in a good performance; keep
an eye out for more work from that direction.
Hamlisch scores big again with the soundtrack, although It did sound a
bit familiar. Nothing like recycling a bit of Joplin, and we ain't
talking Janis! *nudges Roeper*

Simple at it seems, you still may get questions. How do you get the drill
to take the screws out? Will I get the same results if I play different
music?
Actually, this is a great idea for a lot of service issues.

On a serious note, I think it actually might be the ticket for some
things.
Most folks have a video camera of some sort. Mine isn't even a
digital model but Belkin makes a product that allows you to convert
the stuff to digital (VideoBus II). (<$99.00)
The software that comes free with XP is easy to use and cerrtainly
seems adequate for these sorts of "inhouse" tasks.
The software allows you to output to all of the media that is normally
available to us common folk, so people who have VCR's, DVD players,
regular old computers, etc., can participate in viewing the final
result.
It isn't very time consuming to do this.
It took me about ten hours to do this five minute video but that is
because I didn't know the software, or how to get it onto my website
storage area. I also started out with not really knowing how to solve
the showcase problem, from a hands on perspective.
If I were to produce the same thing now, it would take me about four
hours.
Since the problem that I am trying to correct has a dollar value of
about $15000.00, it was well worth the effort.

More than you may realize. This sort of thing is done (seriously) all the
time. Most of the time there is a narration instead of Scott Joplin music
but even as is this would probably be a very useful training aid. Keep in
mind that the procedure that seems simple and second-nature to you may not
be quite so obvious to someone in the field.
I have done numerous training videos over the years. One of the first was a
safety orientation for new employees of an explosives manufacturer. OSHA
required all new employees to undergo this training and it routinely took
the instructor away from his normal duties, so they produced a video so the
workers could get their orientation without inconveniencing other staff.
I have also done videos for Duracell to instruct new workers in the proper
steps for manufacturing certain types of batteries, and for Otis to show
their field technicians how to service a particular model of elevator. And
not long after 9/11 I did a video for Sikorsky Aircraft which consisted of a
complete explanation of the security clearance procedures which was required
viewing for all sub-contractors before they would even be allowed on the
premises.

Now you've got me thinking. My digital camera has some MPEG capability and
I've never tried it. I suspect we'll be seeing some of this type of thing
on ABPW soon. Years ago it was a big deal to be able to take a Polaroid
picture of something to take back to the shop or to show a customer. Now
you can email a shot to someone thousands of miles away in a matter of a few
minutes. This would be the natural progression.

Note also that there are more camera phones in existance than regular
digital cameras. There has to be a business use in there somewhere.

Too funny! Although looking at it, that's not a bad way to generate
instructions -- it takes out a lot of potential for mis-interpretation.
For future movies, you might consider the following theme, for the really
simple (as in, I can't believe you need pictures for this) things:

What kind of people are working in these field crews? The simple act of

piece of metal; remove and reinstall screws (new screw holes); measure; work
with mirrors and glass; work with tape and caulk; and figure out how to
watch the video while doing all that.
It is a nice video though. What software did you use?
