PW thinks (DC agrees) that the notes for relative motion are good enough.

A short 5-ish minute video to reinforce that we have slightly different expectations, but really to introduce them to mechanics and the course. We can ask students to watch it before coming to class on the first day. I'm not sure how many will, but it will help them figure out whether they want to participate in this class or not.
