    Nice video..a lot info in one go .. in some points the background music is louder than the nerration. Also your CV information Niko must go at the begining of the video rather than in the middle. Looking forward to more tips from you !

  • John Fiott

    I really liked the video and was amazed how you managed to fit all of the content into 15 minutes whilst maintaining a logical flow. Also, if one of the key aims was to encourage curiosity about the techniques you mention all I can say is you certainly achieved that in my case!

    Of course, being one of your your past students, I already knew that you are passionate about whatever you put your mind to, so no surprises there.

    One minor observation (if I may) is that the music, although upbeat and thus well-suited to the presentation, seemed just a little too loud in parts and this occasionally made it difficult to hear your voice properly.

    Overall assessment: Worth the time it takes to watch. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Nikolaus, I like the design tool and there are many messages and ideas of great use. I´d only dare to adhere the comment Christos before regarding the level of the music and your voice and i´d suggest as well may be to mix different rythoms on the music that could support or call on the attention of the viewer.

  • Nicoletta

    This is very nice & well done! I like the writing and the drawing 🙂
    But I have to agree with one of the other comments that at some points the music is louder than the narrative. Also at some points you are not heard very clearly.

  • MARIA

    Really nice video, thank you for sharing all these info. I will agree for the music,it was a bit loud and made a little difficult to understand everything. Waiting for the next one!
