Quick Tips Videos

I’ve been trying my hand at quick tip videos recently, I want to make 5 min videos on various tools that I use with this blog, then upload them to youtube and any other video sites I can get them on, im thinking two things, one, doing that will bring this blog more traffic hopefully, and two, I can get more quality content onto this blog, sometimes you just need to show what you are doing rather than trying to explain it in text;).

However its not been easy so far!, I’ve been using CamStudio and Jing which are both free, but this being my first try at video its not been plain sailing!, not even Spielberg has used more cuts than me!:).

Its pretty funny listening to yourself shout at the computer when you mess up for the tenth time, I should just release that stuff, it would go viral in seconds;), trying to get it perfect however makes it sound forced and stiff!, which would be great for the news, but for a tutorial video, not so much!.

Yes I hear you say that you get what you pay for, which with CamStudio and Jing is nothing!, but its something to practice with for now, then after a while I’ll look for something to upgrade too.

Their are so many neat sites/tools that i’m finding on a daily basis, it would be great to share it with you all, and the video format seems to be the way to go, you only need to look at youtube to find really simple videos getting hundreds of thousands of views, at that can mean allot of traffic for your site;).

Hopefully i’ll be able to get these videos out to you before Christmas, well at least one, thats my goal… Oh Santa please bring me the power to hold my concentration and not make any mistakes the next time I press record, and if not, then try to make me look less of a fool by shouting at my computer!:).

I’ll keep you posted on my progress, or subscribe to the newsletter to get it first;).
