Hi again everyone!

Now that Unit MEM 5.12C - Perform routine manual metal arc welding has been formally agreed to, the team now know exactly what is required.
The 'grunt work' of editing the weld footage is progressing nicely. Most of the animations are also nearing completion. John Sharples has been a great help, as he has given up his time to sit with me to fine tune the animations in flash.
All of the metal Fab team are learning alot about the processes Brian and I are using to produce the video clips for each weld competancy.
We have found a great way to really highlight the various 'lead' and ' lateral'angles that are crucial for the students to learn in every weld competancy.

See the screen grabs below:




These graphics fade in over the top of the actual matching weld footage, to illustrate in more detail the various angles to the viewer.

Jo Kay is providing some valuable training to the guys in Powerpoint initially, and there is a real enthusiasm from them, as new teaching practises and resource ideas come to light.
The project is well on track, and more video clips of the weld competancies will be posted soon, so stay tuned!
Jody.
