Hey Richard,

I'm really sorry about this. I had asked Reid for permission to use and edit 
the video (see attached thread). Unfortunately, we had to change it because 
of references to Doom that MS didn't have publisher approval to use in the 
online presentation.

The removing of the other information was an oversight that occurred during 
the editing process.

If it is ok with you, I'll add back in the copyright, NSGK, and Game 
Accessibility logo into the movie and repost it.

Again, my apologies.

-Brannon

Hi Brannon and list,

I like your presentation and slides. I noticed that the .zip also contains a
footage from my interview with Reid Kimball which I recorded at GDC'05. I'm
referring to the file in the .zip entitled "CCModMovie.wmv". You can see the
original here:

mms://www.accessibility.nl/games/video/reidkimball.wmv?SAMI=http://www.accessibility.nl/games/video/reidkimball.smi

Although everyone is free to use the material from GA.com for promotional
and informational activities, I do have a problem with the fact that the
footage is altered. The Game-Accessibility project titles are removed, as
well as the project sponsor information (NSGK) and copyright information. Or
from another perspective: footage of the GA.com project is used in this
movie without NSGK sponsor information. This is really a problem because we
are bound by contract that everything we publish should contain the
sponsor-information.

So I regret that you (or who made the video) didn't ask me (and Reid?) if it
was okay to use this footage, to which I would have replied "Sure, just
include the sponsor info". Since this could get our foundation in trouble,
could you either add this information to the movie, or perhaps add the
original movie (as found in the link above) to the .zip?

Other than that, nice article and presentation! I'll update the current MS
link to GamaSutra.com.

Greets,

Richard

Wow! Didn't know they were doing this (apparently they got permission from
someone else at MS).

You can find a link to a modified version of presentation here along with a
handout I developed for the talk. Not all the slides are the same as I
didn't have permission from some places to distribute their images in the
online version:
