It's the video production and editing that is the biggest challenge.

A simple screen recording program with a good microphone is all it takes.

I somewhat agree with AJ on this. If you wait to make any videos until you have the perfect setup, it will never get done.

We don't need complex lighting or sound/video equipment. Just pull up an annotation style program, or do walkthroughs with a screen record. Overlay your speaking from a microphone and you're set. Not hard at all. A lot of screen recording programs I've seen have the ability to record sound from a microphone built in.

Camtasia is great. It's not free, but I love it.

$299. There are other programs that do the same thing for free. The great thing about camtasia though is its so damn easy to make a video. I can make a 10 minute video in 20 minutes including the screen record time and the editing.

Ok, that's a bit outside my budget. What are some of the free ones?

I've never tried this tool, but its supposed to be very robust for being free.

I re-read the article and noticed its only good for 10 minutes at a time. It's $100 for the pro version which has no restrictions

I seem to remember a talk Scott gave at Spiceworld a few years ago (maybe 2010) about storage that I watched one night randomly.
It was good, but I do like the series idea.

We will have to see what we can do to get setup to do this. There are so many of you on here that could contribute

Cam Studio is free no idea how good. http://camstudio.org/
Getting everyone using the same Quality/Compression standard will be needed for consistency. I would use an H.264 in a MP4 wrapper for HD video.
Might be good to make a bumper video/Intro video that has a MangoLassi logo and some other stuff and then we could have a slide that the person doing the screen capture puts up right after that (similar styling) with the Title of the training, and the presenters name.
I would break anything over 30min into parts.
