To promote my sessions at Learning Solutions 2017 conference, I created a 360° video for YouTube, which you can see here: Under the Hood To create this video, I decided to use development tools already in my toolbox - Microsoft PowerPoint, Windows Movie Maker, and Blender - sprinkled with easily-attainable content, such as available HDRI maps and background music from YouTube Audio Library . Simple Videos... Inside the Video For some on-screen motion, I chose to create a simple video using PowerPoint . Why?

Accessibility Testing: Checkers & Development Tools Review

Tools of the Trade In a different article, I outline the basics foundations of accessibility standards: " Understanding s508 & WCAG 2.0 ". To further expand this, let's look at various development tools to help author accessible content conformant to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines ("WCAG") 2.0 standards. Getting Started For a primer or refresher on what the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) is review the W3 Org website and its associated entries on this subject at https://www.w3.org/WAI/ . Checkers and Tools W3 Org offers a great list of available tools for developers to use when checking content for accessibility conformance at https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tools/ . Various filters can be applied to this list, in order to narrow-down best options. For this article, I applied the following filters: Guidelines > WCAG 2.0 - W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 Languages > English License > Free and License > Open...
