Live video feed on Keynote?

Hi,

How can I display live video feed (from a camera connected to the computer) in a keynote presentation? This was done during the apple presentation (when they introduced the iPhone), but maybe they were using a modified version of Keynote.

Thanks for the help

They don't use Keynote at all, I don't think. Just something mocked-up to look very similar to it.

Actually, they _do_ use Keynote, but since they also have lots of money, they can simply add television hardware/software to add other video layers (like the picture in picture iPhone view) etc. While you see only Steve Jobs doing all the stuff, my guess is there's a whole team working the cameras, directing the thing etc.

Maybe Keynote '07 will add some things like that, though. Would be nice.

Probably done through a vision mixer, as in switching between camera's and then a Mac input.

That's probably what I meant. I'm missing the tech-vocabulary there.
