Hi all,<br><br>Some suggestions for the video script:<br><br>- What is Kdenlive <br>- The importance of a free software video editor<br>- Features of Kdenlive<br>- Why we need to improve Kdenlive<br><br>I think it would be good show some scenes from videos edited with Kdenlive when talking about the features and also show the people behind Kdenlive (developers, translators, users).<br>

</div></div>Hey Derrick,<br>
<br>
thanks for you encouragement!<br>
<br>
<br>
@Ernie, @all: I'd go for indiegogo then. If there are no further<br>
requirements preventing this I will open a campain as fast as<br>
possible, hopefully this week. We could then post the video at some<br>
later point.<br>
<br>
How are the efforts for a script going?<br>
<br>
<br>
regards<br>
<br>
