New New Media promotional video

Good promo, but no mention of Grade Guru :)

Thanks - I'm saving that for the sequel :)

Well it looks like a pretty cool book...but I agree with penschool. You've got a pretty good powerpoint there, but is that really all you could think of for your promo video? What about a Flash video? Or heck, even a few clips of what your book is about. I know this is for a Textbook, and not an ad for an entertainment product, so I can give it a bit of leeway, but it could still use a little improvement.

Though let me make it clear that I DO like the concept of the book. *nod*

Thanks, Introbolus (seriously :) I'm glad you like the concept of my book. I'll pass on your thoughts to the publisher - the maker of the vid.

Looking forward to reading this book. See you at the book signing in Philly!

Looking forward to the 30th in Philly!

Thanks for the advice - but the reason I think the video is cool has little to do with the animated powerpoint, and mainly to do with the words themselves and what they say.

As I point out in the book, sometimes the message is the medium, rather than vice versa.

If you think animated powerpoint is "cool", then you need to think harder about "new" "new media".
