I'd say longer as you fit more actual footage in without credits and whatnot, makes it feel a bit more worthwile

Yes indeed but they will be around 4 mins or less long and there will be alot of them. Think how long a -shudder- Thomas episode is or ivor the engine episode. I think laal has thought of a very important factor - attention spans!

Of course I do tend to find the better the video, the more I pay attention to it for longer, so it's all about a balance

If you do find a way then please tell me, mines pretty poor out here in the sticks. BTW I've tried wacking the router, this did not work as it happens! :evil:

Hah, its actually a problem with our "tinternet over mains" system, one of the boxes overheats every 5 mins and cuts out! I have found a clever solution however. Pendrive- take video onto laptop- laptop has wireless, load video onto tinternet from laptop. In 10 mins you will be watching this vid!!

AND HERE IT IS!!

just a quick question - what video editing software do you use?

Woweee! Thanks for the comments! I use Windows Movie Maker for editing and have to convert all my files from the camera from quite time to WAV with a converter. The next episode really reveals what the series is about and is entitled "The Inspector..."

Currently in the editing stage waiting for a few more voices to come in before it can go out.

I thought that either people would hate this or love it. Evidently I got lucky!
