The Videogram Creator application makes it easier than ever to share information. Capture a picture and send a thousand
words or simply send a self-running and compact Videogram. Join us as we attempt to document a few new ways to share
information.
Sending with E-Mails
Family
E-mails have become a part of everyday life for millions of people. Mom’s telling everybody about the new baby, dad’s sha-
ring information in a new car club. The whole family is getting into electronic communication and what better way to
enhance this than with a Videogram? Mom could be “showing” the new baby. Dad could be “showing” his ‘65 Mustang
convertible. Videograms are sure to win hearts at Valentines day and make everyone happy on any holiday.
Salespeople
Land that next sale by sending a Videogram e-mail to your customers. It will separate you from your competition. It shows
that you care enough to “show” people instead of “tell” them. In today’s high-speed information era there’s no room for
‘almost’. Videograms also make a great conversation piece and are sure to be remembered.
Business Consultants
Share that great new insight or idea with a Videogram. Concepts are often difficult to describe in a few sentences. Simply
send your prospective client a Videogram, showing them exactly what you mean. You can even interactively combine voice,
face and drawings or sketches. Plus you can get it to them in minutes, instead of overnight.
Training
We never stop learning and what better way to learn then with video. Whether you’re training sales people on new pro-
ducts or providing an employee with basic information -Videograms will work great. Simply create a Videogram by follo-
wing the earlier sections titled “ADDING VIDEOGRAMS TO PRESENTATION SOFTWARE” or “STAND-ALONE
VIDEOGRAM PRESENTATIONS.”
Internet Sites
Liven up otherwise “lifeless” web pages with full-motion video and sound without having visitors wait to see it. The video
and sound play as they are being captured, or downloaded, by any popular Internet browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer,
Netscape Navigator, etc.). In other words, “streamed.” You can add Videograms to your web site by following the step-by-
step instructions in Chapter 10 titled “Advanced Features.”
Using In Presentations
Presenters
Video clips created with the Videogram Creator play great within presentation software packages like Microsoft
PowerPoint. Add impact and a sense of immediacy to your message. Add a Videogram with the President talking and anot-
her with a quick tour of the building.
Adding Videograms To Presentation Software
If you can point and click a mouse, then you can add a video clip to your next presentation. First you’ll need to make sure
your presentation software accepts standard Microsoft AVI video files. This can easily be done by quickly referencing the
manual, or on-line help, that is provided with your presentation software. Look for the keywords “Video” or “AVI.” Once
you’ve verified that it should work, you’ll need source material. Open the Videogram Creator application and capture a
video clip but don’t save it as a Videogram. Rather, from the “File” menu click on “Save As,” type in a filename and click
“Save.” Add it to the presentation.
To locate existing .AVI files on the computer, click on the “Start” button then “Find” and “Files or Folders.” Type *.AVI
in the “Named:” entry box and click the “Find Now” button. The magnifying glass will spin a few times and identify all
the video files on your system’s C drive (change the “Look in” entry box for another drive).
