A Screencast about Building Screencasts: How I Built the Guildflow 70-second Introduction Video
Since I feel many good landing pages need a short video, I figured this was a good place to share. Enjoy.

I'm a big fan of screencasts. I generalize the term screencast here as any video where you see primarily a computer or user interface, with a voice and optional video feed of a person doing some kind of demonstration.
You've seen lots of screencasts here on the blog and I've even done a few professionally as a consultant, using real voice-over performers.
In today's video I'll recount how I built the recent 70-second introduction video for Guildflow with specific demos and discussions of the tools I use including:
- Bear to write a screenplay in Markdown.
- Keynote to build a presentation of screenshots.
- Screenflow to record my desktop and edit the capture.
- QuickTime and Acorn to build thumbnails.
