The PacketDesign videos are pretty good. I watched six so far. They were all made on the same day, or perhaps these guys have closets full of identical shirts. This is a changing field. It would be useful if PacketDesign would date stamp their productions in the title page. They all carry a copyright notice which at least contains the year. Better than nothing.
Thanks.
Hi Jim. Thanks for your comment. Yeah... funny that Jim and Cengiz chose the same clothes for each shoot! You're right though, knowing the exact timing for comments in a rapidly changing arena is indeed critical, so thanks for pointing this out. All seven video segments were recorded on August 20th of this year. Glad they are providing some value.
Best,
Steve
