This video, through some very well done animation, gives a good overview of how locks work and how to pick them. It would have been nice, however, if there had been some video of an actual human picking a lock. It is hard to depict the motions that you have to go through strictly by animation.

"Lockpicking for the New Millenium" gives a better look at the picking techniques, but this "Visual Guide to Lock Picking" gives a better view of the internal workings of a lock.

I guess, renting both, as I did, would be a good idea.
