Well I said I would do it, and here we go, our second video for the site. It’s been a while coming but it’s here and it’s the start of a new series of weekly videos on Expression. In this video rather than doing a start to finish tutorial I spend some time looking at one of the coolest new features in Expression Blend 3, SketchFlow an experience prototyping tool built into Blend.
I walk you through the interface as I mock up a quick and dirty prototype of an application and demonstrate the feedback cycle using the cross browser, cross platform, SketchFlow Player as well as the incredible export to Word feature. Take a look and please, if you have any feedback at all please don’t hesitate to drop me a line here.
*I am still working out some kinks with getting the video up to the streaming server so this is a locally served copy and will take a sec (Okay, it takes a wicked long time, working on it) to get rolling.*
Issues resolved
Without further ado.

Cool site!
Cool videos!
Great presentation.
PS: Do you know about: TitleCenter-Sketch and other controls with similar names? Those can help you get big text size textblock on the screen a lot faster, with text alignment already set.

Nikita,

This is cool, really great feature given by Microsoft Expression Team at so early stage of the Blend, Kudos to Expression team. The most amazing feature in sketchflow is ability to give feedback, bring it in Blend, & export it to word.
