[OSM-newbies] Potlatch 2 tutorial video: part 1 (rough cut)

[Moreland Tim]

David, 

Great job with the video! I think the pacing and speed of your
demonstration are spot on. The only thing I would suggest is to change
your script so to take out the longer pauses while you are waiting for
the video to move on. Keep up the great work. I'm looking forward to
seeing parts 2 and 3. 

Tim

The barrier to entry to OSM seems to be falling. Now we?ve got an
awesome
even easier-to-use online editor and hi-res imagery for much more of the
world. We now need some basic tutorial videos to go with these.

In the spirit of the do-ocracy, I?ve had a go at getting started. I?ve
created a short tutorial video for adding POIs using Potlatch 2. I
envisage
this being part of a series of 3 short videos. I see parts 2 and 3
covering
tracing ways from Bing, possibly adding ways to route relations,
creating
areas (closed ways) and a few remaining features. The aim is to keep
each
video under five minutes long (as I personally would not sit through an
online tutorial any longer than that!). I?ve also aimed to make it
reasonably easy to re-edit once P2 is the default editor. If they are
popular, perhaps we could also add some GPS-related tutorials in the
future.

I haven?t yet attempted parts 2 and 3, because I thought I would get
some
feedback on the rough cut of part 1. Unfortunately, the sound quality is
pretty poor due to my incompetent use of the audio settings, and I plan
to
re-record once I have some feedback (my intonation is a bit odd at
times,
too). I anticipate different people will have different views, so please
don?t expect me to act on all suggestions (I?ll only act on the ones I
think
are a good idea!).

So let me know what you think:

P.S. I?d consider releasing this CC0 to maximise worry-free re-editing
and
re-use. However, I?m slightly concerned there might be howls of anguish
if
OSM data is in a CC0 video. I suspect it would be fair use, as would
using
Bing imagery in the background, so more worried about the community
reaction
than the legality.
