Re: [libreoffice-marketing] LibreOffice Christmas quiz for the blog - ideas wanted!

[Drew Jensen]

Well, if it is a stand a lone piece why not go all the way to a video.

I put together a quick mockup, just the image decomposed and a couple of
gentle lighting effects.
Grabbed a freely licensed copy of Dance of the sugar plumb faries and a, as
you will hear crappy voice over of the text.
You can the results here; https://youtu.be/Wa9AhvfmZMQ

So, if that is of interest what I really need is for someone to give me a
clean voice over (mp3, flac, whatever pretty much format wise) of that text
between now and the 24th and I'll send you the resulting file.  My
microphone setup is just not a good quality. Let me know if you are
interested in that.
