Idea for flash or ad makers

[blm]

Can you compile all the clips of the Kerry was right moments - especially George Will's?

Use the spoken words and put up transcripts or written columns. Include his port security message from 2003-4 and show its import to the news stories of the last year.

1. I've put up a page of these moments but it is not complete.

For lack of time, I haven't been able to keep up.

If anyone wants to help out, I really need help with this site.

2. cool site.

You get the idea, that's for sure.

Now, if we can get a flash competent person to construct a 1-2 minute flash, that would be excellent.

3. What do you have in mind?

And how would it be used?

[blm]

4. I want it to look like a serious-minded, informative political ad.

One that captures every syllable Will spoke or wrote about Kerry being right, for starters.

5. Hmmmmm.

Flash is complicated from what I understand. I've got a copy of it but I haven't installed it on my computer. And I've never used it.

I've heard Motion Artist is easier, cheaper and works just as well. Then there are people who will design what you want for a charge.

Any Flash experts here?

BTW BLM, where did you want to use this ad? If this is to be something that anyone with a Kerry blog or site might want to display then you could ask people to chip in. Another possibility is to create something that can be shown on youtube. Both IslandBlue and GlobalVillage have created some nice videos. You might want to ask them what they used.

6. Heh - around the blogs would be a start

I have ZERO computer skills - but, I'm a great suggester. ;)

Seriously, in the line of work I used to do, it was my job to come up with the ideas, then elves would work, I'd come back and do the polishing, get approval, and then start it off.

7. Well, it sounds like an interesting idea.

I'll kick it up and see if there are any elves biting (talk about a mixed metaphor) tonight.

8. I can do something with Movie Maker

Like this one I did recently.

Is that what you had in mind, but mostly text? Do you have any music you prefer? If it's text, it should be instrumental or it gets too busy.
