My very first online video ........

MichaelAppleton · 10-11-2009, 04:37 PM

Well I have taken the plunge, we all have to do it at some point and today was my day. It was a simple screen recording with a voice over and not an actual video, never the less I wasnt at all comfortable with the situation.

I am going to be working on a few more videos in the next week or two (remaking this one aswell) and hope to get my mug on there aswell.

I know the blurring wasn't exactly tidy but apart from that some comments on what you think would be great and may help sway my opinion.

The video can be found on the main page of my blog, Michael Appleton - Internet Marketing Blog - Learn Internet Marketing

Thanks in advance

Michael Appleton.

I did just jump through it a bit but thought I'd throw you back a little something.

Your audio is very low - perhaps you'll want to look into that.

Don't be afraid to add some motion to the video - IE zooming in to a specific area that you are discussing so it can be seen clearer.

Otherwise, don't beat yourself up!

Not bad for a first go - and at least now you know how to do it.

not bad for the first time around! Just like he said above though - the audio has to come up quite a bit.

Looks like a good site too!

Thanks guys, will bare that in mind when remaking the video.

I Added the panning and zooming after I had added the blurring and then realised I had to remove it or redo alot of the blurring lol :/

Thanks for the comments, I will take it onboard.
