New video of Christian Tissier teaching back in February

At long last the resident video-monkey has been able to edit down some of the footage from the Seminar with Christian Tissier back in February.

Rather than a fast-and-furious demo-reel, the video is a refresher of some of the techniques and principles taught during the day.

We hope you like it!
