YouTube channel for NLPCraft

NLPCraft-ers,
I would like to propose to set up a YouTube channel for our project.
There are a number of tutorials that we can produce and YouTube seems
to be the place and a marketing channel that is most active right now.

In the past, we did publish a number of articles (thanks Sergey!) but
the coverage left a lot to be desired.

I have OBS Studio that I can use to record the screen and I can teach
anyone to do it. The video editing can also be done internally or
outsourced. However, one of the problems that we have is... a spoken
language. To have maximum reach these tutorials must be in English
(not in Russian) and we need a decent native English speaker.
Unfortunately - most of the core devs have a rather thick Russian
accent :-)

Would any of the free-speaking English members of the community
(mentors?) be willing to donate some of their time on this project?
Any other ideas?

Thanks!
--
Aaron.

Hi

It is great idea to have such marketing channel.

I am afraid I can't use my own voice for it because of too strong accent 
- but I am ready to provide all necessary content for it.


Regards,

Sergey

Thank you all,
I'm going to go ahead and take a first stab at the intro tutorial.
I'll work with Nikita, etc. on voiceover and we'll see how it goes.

Thanks!

This is a really great idea!

I can help with the materials (although I can't help with the voice
acting, my spoken English is not that good).

Sergey

Long overdue IMHO...

I would also recommend talking to Denis Magda, VP of Product Marketing here
at GridGain. Denis works for me and he's extremely knowledgeable on this
subject (and an active ASF community member for Apache Ignite).

Given my workload at GridGain I won't have the bandwidth to do the full
production for the screencast. If, however, someone (Sergey, Aaron) can
produce a video and an exact script that sync-ed to that video (a-al
YouTube close captions) I can find the time to help with the voiceover.
I've dealt with the YoutTube production in the past here at GridGain and
we've used a professional voiceover... the quality of the script and
precise synchronization are absolutely essential for the production quality.

Anyhow, keep each tutorial to less than 5 minutes, use good titles, tags
and descriptions, produce 2-3 videos a month - and you should have a decent
pull of users from this channel.

I think this is a good idea, indeed! We need to make sure that all 
back-references to the project and attributions are in place, and we 
aren't violating the ASF trademark in any way.

As for the native speaker narration: I would disagree. It doesn't have 
to be a native speaker, it is really sufficient to have someone well 
spoken to carry on the job.

I can help with some starting episodes and I am sure we can expand on that.

Sergey,
Here's the list of video tutorials that I have in mind:
- Download & installation
- First example
- NLPCraft CLI tutorial
- In-depth configuration
- NLPCraft IDL in-depth
- Synonym suggested
- SQL model generator
- Auto-validation framework
- REST API primer

Thoughts?

NLPCraft-ers,
Which video do you think are the most important ? I 'd like to prepare 
the content and discuss video list.
