Hi everyone,</div><div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;color:rgba(0,0,0,1.0);margin:0px;line-height:auto">after discussing with Andrew and Jonathan here is the plan:</div><div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;color:rgba(0,0,0,1.0);margin:0px;line-height:auto">
<br></div><div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;color:rgba(0,0,0,1.0);margin:0px;line-height:auto">- Jonathan will record all the feature videos (he is a professional trainer and a native speaker)</div><div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;color:rgba(0,0,0,1.0);margin:0px;line-height:auto">
- I will publish them on the Blender Foundation YouTube account</div><div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;color:rgba(0,0,0,1.0);margin:0px;line-height:auto">- Andrew will update the page with the new video links</div>

Once that the recordings are available, if anyone volunteers to do a transcript or even translations I will be more than happy to include those in the YouTube videos.</div><div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;color:rgba(0,0,0,1.0);margin:0px;line-height:auto">
<br></div><div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;color:rgba(0,0,0,1.0);margin:0px;line-height:auto">I would suggest to organise this only when we have the videos (which will be in less than 2 weeks).</div>

<div>I agree, Haymond. The videos should be scripted. </div>
<div>buy let's just wait and see what Francesco says about the
whole thing before we start any more discussions about it. He said
for us to just stand by for a few hours. </div></div></blockquote></div></div></span></blockquote></div></div><br></div></div><div class="im">_______________________________________________<br>
