Video portfolio sample. This is a sample of a corporate-industrial training video written in 1987 by John-Michael Battaglia for his client, Triad Systems Corporation of Livermore, California.
Triad has been a market leader in providing computer systems to the automotive after-market parts industries. Their hardware and software systems assist auto parts distributors and retailers in tracking their parts inventory via Triad's proprietary software database. Triad has also developed and marketed management information system software for the retail hardware industry, as well as medical/dental offices. Triad's hardware and software systems are designed to perform inventory control, accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, general ledger, and point-of-sale purchase ordering.
This training video uses a variety of characters and sales transactions in a retail hardware store setting to train cashiers how to perform BASIC operations on the computerized Point of Sale system developed by Triad in the mid-eighties.
It's a really long video, because it is thorough. From an instructional design standpoint, the video lays out all the relevant point-of-sale procedures of the Triad system in a detailed, sequential fashion. With the advent of digital video and the ability to randomly access any portion of a video production, material like this could be excerpted into small QuickTime video chunks that could be searched for by key words and incorporated as essential elements in an on-line HELP system. Some video editing and some indexing would give video material like this "legs."

Founded in 1972 as Triad Systems Corp., the technology company spent its early years focused on two primary markets: hardware stores and lumber companies, and automotive parts and service dealers.
In 1997, it merged with Austin, Texas-based Cooperative Computing Inc. and changed the company name to CCI-Triad. Following several additional smaller company acquisitions, they expanded into a new market: wholesale distributors. The company was renamed Activant in 2004.
Triad (now Activant) retains the copyright: the writer was granted the customary artist's right to show his portfolio copy to prospective clients and employers as a work sample.
