Callouts November 2014, Who, What, When?
November is here and with it a lot of new resources. A few weeks ago I got several emails from one of our newest members, Tod. I love getting those emails and that our members are involved new Callouts resources.
Tod’s suggestions lead to a whole new series of Who, What, When series of video backgrounds. More about that below. Based on other suggestions we have also added a bunch of transparent overlay videos related to worship. We also have a new PowerPoint sales video template, a new collection of transitions for Camtasia and as usual, much more…

Why, Who, What, When, How?
I don’t know about you, but I was certainly drilled with these questions in school.
This month you find 15 new whiteboard animation videos writing those useful questions. I hope it will be a very useful addition to our whiteboard animation collection.
