Every user is able to use the start and stop button of a video player. I never had problems with non native speakers or "broken english" speakers - but they should be well recorded. In my opinion, a video tutorial should be planned well (like an animted film ) and should use a script for the narrator. I totally don't like if the "narrator" haven't planned the steps he tries to show and also didn't planned the spoken text.
I often used Tutorials for audio applications and some After effects stuff during the last year. the concept of instance heads, breaking instances, and pre/post layer behavior the concept of the drawers, and moving palettes around in and out of drawers moving around the canvas with Alt-mouse, Alt-Rmouse, Ctrl-Alt, etc. looping a character walking across the screen, or making a background pan (creating an animbrush, Keyframer FX)įor absolute beginners, the most unfamiliar thing I think is the interface and the non-standard keyboard shortcuts: cleanup and color (line smoothing, CTG layers) flipping and rolling (flips panel, light table, out-of-pegs) drawing your keys and extremes (drawing tools, timeline, image marks, library panel for model sheets) A long tutorial can be split up into parts, but if each part is a step along the way of a single project, it will be clear how each step relates to the last and how each step moves the user toward the finished result.įor each step of the traditional animation workflow, there will naturally be certain features of TVP that will be explained in the process: Project-based tutorials are helpful because they relate to real-world workflows. It's usually easier for me to get the idea with spoken language than with a strangely-phrased subtitle.
If the person making the videos is not a native speaker of English, I still find it easier to understand if they narrate, even with accented and imperfect English. Subtitles are great as long as they are well-written! Otherwise they are extremely confusing. I like audio, because it helps draw my attention to what is going on, and can provide more detailed explanation of what's happening on screen than is possible with just subtitles.
