RE: I'M BACK — Quick Update Video

in #dtube5 years ago (edited)

I like the PS part about the hair going to your sister. I think it's going to be a hot summer again. I look forward to seeing what videos you come up with.

In my spare time and small allowance I've been able to buy a mic and just want to record stories to animation. I've worked the past few months playing with sound and video and animation. It turns out the most simple is the best. A lot of video editing is time consuming. Your talent is music and words, especially exploring the unseen. I recommend rap based on a point you learned and want to share or even a shot with you at the piano improvising. And by all means turn on the camera and make your impromptu video pod casts. Last but not least, just speak your poem at like an open mic in your living room. Maybe edit one photo in the background. It's you that shines through the camera not the editing.

Honestly Dtube is still slow and annoying to me. But I can see the point of building an audience here. In the rush of life it has been hard for me to see the answer that had always been there staring me in the face. Rejoice for imperfections.

Congratulations in finding a work space.

Hey @mineopoly, thanks a lot for the feedback and it's good to hear from you! That's really cool that you're experimenting with animation. I've never tried drawing images to animate but I did a lot of stop-motion animation with a cheap camera I had when I was in grade school. It feels like the imagination can really come alive in that format.

I'll definitely consider the options that you mentioned. I think once I get into a habit of creating daily again it will feel semi-effortless like it was before. The idea that simple is better certainly seems to pan out in my experience and taking a minimalistic approach to editing videos feels good to me.

Dtube definitely has its issues, but I think eventually "mainstream" platforms will be using something akin to IPFS to host videos in a decentralized way. If it's not "quite there," all the more reason to mirror the videos a bit later on YouTube, where they can be slightly higher quality and perhaps play more reliably.

Have a great day!
