Dale,

I really liked how James Robertson did his videos. Short and simple with one teaching point.

However a slightly longer overview of you showing the new development workflow would also
be useful. Then use the shorter video’s to show details.

You are attempting a significant paradigm shift in how the development process is supported
by tools. That is why an overview video, not too long, is very useful.

Regards

Reg

Both are important, but for a timely way to get interested people up-and-running, video will let you cover more ground, in detail, quickly.  Key is to demonstrate good examples.
