Dear Steemit: Help Me Choose the Topic of my NEXT STEEMIT INSTRUCTIONAL ANIMATION

in #steemit7 years ago

That's right, I said "NEXT".

I want to make more animated videos to help new users understand Steemit.


When I made the first video a few days ago, I had no intention of making it a series. However, the response from the community has been so overwhelmingly positive, I've decided to make a second video. Who knows? Maybe after that I'll make a third... and a fourth... and a hundredth. We'll see how it goes!

Here's my first video:

Now I want help with the second video

I want input from you; the community. If you enjoyed my video on voting power, what would you like to see next? What are some questions you have about Steemit?


I've already been given one idea from @marillaanne, but I would love to hear more. She said, "do one on how to calculate your gamble and how to hedge your bets when upvoting purely for the curation fee."

Please leave your questions, ideas and suggestions in the comments!

I would like to know if there is mathematical way to find out the relation between SP and voting price. For example: How much SP do I need to have a 100% voting power of 10$? Or how much ist my upvote worth when I have 1000 SP?

I wanted to see a video on what the .VESTS are in the block chain meta data. Great videos by the way, I subscribed to you on YouTube.

Thanks for the idea. This is a questions that I'm not super clear on the answer. I'll have to do some research if I want to put it into a video.

Damn. I accidentally posted this video on my old YouTube channel and now I'm getting all these new followers in the wrong place!

: ) Whats the new channel link?

i allready told you on youtube..man, this ist unbelivibly good animated and explained! would love to see more of this.

I don't have a lot of time, but I will try to make more of these videos when I can. Thanks to the comments here, I know exactly what the next video will be about.

I'm glad you found the video helpful :)

I will stay tuned!
for sure this detail in animation takes time. You did all this drawing, animations and editing by your own? This water animation is so detailed -

This is a great idea! There are a lot of videos and posts already out there about how to use SteemIt, but they all cover the same top level information. I'd love to see a some content that is more hard-hitting. Something that unveils the underside of SteemIt such as the down/upvotting bot accounts. Or, perhaps how manipulating your upvotes or Cryptocurrency shares of Steem can influence your (residual) income.

Great ideas though!

Oh boy... you really want to put me to work! I'd have to do a lot of research for that ;)

thx again for another informative post! resteemed+upvoted

Maybe a "simple" visualisation of the blockchain and blockchain technology, if that's even possible... I myself struggle to even understand the basics because it's too abstract and I don't think I need to understand exactly just to benefit from it, but I would like to... 😇

That's a really good idea. When I first got here, blockchain was a mystery to me.

I want to make these videos Steemit specific, so maybe explain the blockchain, and then elaborate on how it applies to a social networking site like this.

Yes, would be super helpful, to me at least! Judging from your previous video I am sure you'll be able to make it comprehensible... yet fun! Is that too much pressure, haha?

Some animation that shows to users what to post and how often, because I think there are many "spamers" . They post one pic or video(both just coppied links) and do it 10 times a day. They dont post quality content. Just my opinion.

Thanks for your suggestion :)

I'd like to see two things: a playlist on Youtube dedicated to Steem manuals and videos of best Steem practices based on facts about the platform with some technical details even to make a point. So far, everyone's suggestions look interesting enough to me to keep you busy)

Although as a new person to this, I'd like to see basics, too, like what a blockchain is, etc.)

I like the idea of doing a blockchain video. I want to keep the info relatively basic for newcomers. Also, "basic" is within the ballpark of my knowledge! haha

I'd like to see an animation about the differences between steem, steem dollars, and steem power. I'm also confused about the distribution of any of these. So much to learn!!

That's a really good idea. Some of the "basic" ideas, I'm so accustomed to, I hardly remember that there was a time when I didn't really get it either.

Haha, I guess me and the other newbies can keep you grounded then, eh? :P

LoL I'm glad you took me serious. There's so many ways to place an upvote as a curation reward bet.

But a newbie will really struggle with it. If you do that one be sure to point out that championing the cause by promoting the post 10 different ways can help ...

but above all is it really worth giving away a mandatory 100% up vote as a newbie to gamble on a post?

Sometimes I get lucky though with a point .oo7 curation reward :-)

I have an invitation for you. Prepare for chat spam :-)

EDIT : or not. Chat seems to be in a tailspin for me.

Chat is on the fritz for me too right now...
