For laughs... my first video..

ok, this is terrible. I had to take a few shots of corn liquor before doing it…. But here I am nerves & all……

Thanks for the video! And yes, I see yor are a bit nervous :slight_smile:

+1, I hate the damn camera.

Ok, cheers for the link scaru.

Dale, seriously, I had an image of a real deep Texan voice for some reason :bigsmile: I’m going to have to hack my you tube and shoot a video, then you can laugh at my stupid accent.

Anyway, joking aside, I spent ages going over my review in my head before I wrote it, making notes and bullet points, scripting it if you will. I think this would help you, you seemed to panic at a few points, get your facts down as bullet points, practice a few times and your sorted. Just try to be confident, you know your s*, just panicked with the camera on you, that’s all, no biggie.

Don’t worry none bud, its all practice :bigsmile:

Lmao! I may redo it…. Just wanted to post one quickly to see if I could… After I watched myself spazzing out…I HAD TO POST IT!!!

I don’t consider myself to be shy, but if there is a video camera pointed anywhere near me I seem to become all self conscious and I clam-up.

Big respect for posting the video!

Hell I think you did great for a first time video!! I would never have the nerve to do it, Good job Dale!!

I rewatched… It wasnt that bad… But it wasnt that good either!!!

Believe me, You did a fine job!! :wink:

A lot better than I could do! :slight_smile:

It was pretty good! But it seems like someone is holding the cam, isn’t it easier if you are alone? For me recording is Not a problem… The problem is to speech. I use to record mute videos with subtitles, piece of cake!
I don’t know why, but listening to ourselves speaking is not pleasant. My English teacher makes me record things to send by mail, I hate that homework!

Talking about cameras… Today I was welding in a tough spot. All stretched out laying across some t bars… Finish up, squirm out and flip my hood up. Theres a damn safety guy video taping me for a freaking safety video… He’s all like no no continue this is good stuff… And I’m like… Uh are you taping me? Is this going on a safety video?
There I was welding with no respirator… The what not to do part of the video I’m assuming…
Awkward…

Moral of this story, I hate cameras. Anything you did is 100x better than I could do.

Something similar happened to me… You don’t have to hate video cams, you have to hate safety guys!

Dale, Fine first attempt..You have more balls than me. Just the thought of making a video freaks me out. Needless to say, I'm not making one

P.S. I thought you'd have a heavier southern accent.

How did you lose it? :P

Really funny video. Gave me some good laughs actually. :)

You obviously were nervous, but keep trying, its gonna get better. Sounded a little bit like a 15yr old telling her dad she got pregnant.. :D

LOLOLOL donkeyshine! & yes Mrs D was holding the camera.

That’s a good story there!! It’s an OSHA video… :smiley:

Great job for sure!!!

You need to do more of these.
