A happy turn with my video today

I needed to solve a problem with my demonstration animations. How was I going to point out elements in 3D scenes?

At last, I hit on something I like. I create snapshots and, as necessary, move and resize them to point at and discuss. Here is a snippet from the sequence where I put the method into play. As before, this is all rough placement and subject to change. The voice over is placeholder quality, only. The timing and shaping of the parts will be adjusted and refined later. The script may change, too. But this is a big improvement and gives me a lot of hope about the feel of this project.

The comparing-snapshots thing is an inspired choice! It makes the differences that you're pointing out much clearer, making it possible to see the snapshots side-by-side rather than relying on the viewer having an accurate short-term visual memory such that they can do the comparison thing in their mind's eye - which I suspect a lot of folk find harder to do than it sounds. :-7

Yes, exactly! I'm very happy about this. :D
