You Tube!

I guess I jumped on the band wagon of doing You Tube Tutorials. On Halloween Day, My friend Kristen and I posted our first one. I did a Halloween Makeup look meanwhile she set up the camera, organized the settings for it and also she pretty much walked me through the editing. It came out better than I expected!
To keep it looking as porfessional as I can, I purchased two "Constant lights" that use flourescent bulbs. I did a practice run with another video that I am currently working on and I used the lights. I am currently learning an editing program called Sony Vegas Movie Studio 11.  There are learning curves to anything you learn, so I am going through the program step-by-step. And Thank the Lord for You Tube because that's also where I am learning tips and tricks for this program. I don't want to learn anything elaborate, I just want to produce a nice video that is clear and understandable.
For my videos, I've decided that it is best if I do "voice over" so that it is possible to shorten videos; some videos are just not necessary to be as long as originally taped, I believe.,
So, I am off to absorb myself into something new because that's How I Roll...
