Thanks, Wendy. This is very useful. It seems though, judging from the lack of responses at least, that not too many writers use videos. Maybe people still associate videos with bandwidth constraints, expensive tools and high maintenance costs. Today videos including voice-over are much more affordable than they used to be. I also know that while some writers just love trying out new technologies, others prefer sticking to what they already know and feel comfortable with, so maybe this is another reason.
