What's a non-technical person?

Since completing my studies at Concordia in 2003, I have had the opportunity to train with veteran directors of photography (DOP) for shooting on video. In the last year, I have shot and edited a number of commercials, short films and documentaries in Canada and abroad. It is my strong belief that cinema is one of the most important art forms in that it brings together talented people from so many disciplines and its purpose and power can be so diverse and far reaching. I think that with my exposure and training in cinema, my grasp of film aesthetics and analysis as well as my commitment to learn and my strong people skills enable me to be an excellent contributor to any film or video production.
* Never learned programming concepts
* Didn't realize Wikipedia can be edited
* Maybe used a cms, blog (Wordpress), Facebook

# to solve their problem, usually a "one of those" web site with some special requirements
# to learn about the participatory web
# to create reusable data?
# to have more control over their own site
