Video really is better. No, really.

We get the same question asked frequently: "is video really better?". We think the answer is pretty obvious, but apparently, it isn't.

As an example of the sheer power of video to explain and simplify, a few folks have asked how to create certain effects in a video, or do something in Photoshop. If you've ever tried, those kinds of things are difficult to explain using words. Pictures help a little, but they're often even more confusing.

I created this screencast to demonstrate how video makes it drop dead simple to explain a concept to someone. This is a fairly simple concept, in this case, but imagine how much text would have to be written (not to mention the terminology involved) to explain this the "old fashioned" way!



How do you explain your concepts to your cutomers? I'll bet they're more complicated than drawing a 3D glassy ball!
