      Hi Dave. What a cool presentation – thanks for sharing! As often as not I go into the ‘4 tips…’ type of thing with a certain amount of trepidation due to the number of times I’ve got part way through Tip one/two and my eyes have glazed over. And I then, an hour or so later, I’ve woken up in a puddle of my own drool.

      I was recently commissioned to put together a TV Series bible. That was a hell of thing. I really could have done with this guide then.
