My last task was to screencast an invitation to viewers to contribute to the community map and here is the Baynes Sound Community Map Invitation. The screencast video is shown below but it has been truncated on the right so you may prefer to follow the link to see the full-scale version. I find these so difficult to do without the audience response to carry me along. I need to make another set of edits, find a smile, and use the clearer webcam before I go public with the invitation. For now I’m anxious to see what responses I’ll get from the friends and colleagues I’ve sent it to.
