I think that a video sounds like a fine idea but I need some outside "expertise" on this...

First of all I'd need a video camera - any suggestions on what kind?

Also, is it possible that a camera could be on a tripod and focused on the canvas and could I switch it on and off myself?

Is it possible for me to edit out 99% of the boring stuff without expensive equipment?

Could I do a "voice over" of the visual?

I find it tough to paint and talk about painting simultaneously. (Funny thing, I have no problem painting and chatting about other subjects - must be a left/right brain thing).
