good afternoon from a slightly overcast and cool England. Oh man, I can feel the energy shift from planning to transition mode, the mobiles are all setup, the background macros for building up the stories are done, bags are semi packed for steemfest 2 and I’m tying up all the loose ends. We some great video clips already for this second video, better quality, bit of acting and a lot of passion and energy for connecting with each other — if you have submitted your video you know who you are.
we had a bunch of new entries that are fire, thank you for promoting the message and telling people! :)
So if you did’nt get the update I had a hd crash and lost a lot of the files from the v2 when people uploaded them, I’ve got 7 out of the 28 lines so I need people to send me them up again, if you have lost them or deleted them no worries, could you record your line again and send it me? - email to dmouse AT gmail DOT com or use either youtube (unlisted) or wetransfer.com and send me the link and I’ll take care of the rest — I’ll like to get this done before I head out to steemfest so we have like a week! :)
WE HAVE 4 LINES LEFT BUT I STILL NEED THE VIDEOS FROM THE PEOPLE BELOW.
@roguefighter420, @paulie2coins, @picokernel, @juicy-shark, @meesterboom, @ammonite, @mrslauren, @rootingrobert, @kodieamos, @fivefiveeleven, @samstonehill, @molovelly, @leotrap, @curiie, @webresultat, @thefedora — get me your videos too me as fast as you can, just upload them to youtube as unlisted or just use wetransfer.com and send me the link to download to dmouse AT gmail DOT com.
still want to be in the video? — http://humble.link/spoken_2 <— PICK A LINE! FOUR LINES LEFT!
if you don’t know what i’m on about, quickly review the first video we did, it was fantastic, everyone that wanted payment was paid for their quick time to record the line, i stitched them together, made overlays and picked some music to go over the top, i wanna do that again because i loved making it, making is my thing, it keeps me creatively on top of things.
thank you to all the souls that took part in the first one. i know a lot of people really wanted to be in it and never knew about it so i hope this blog post get’s to you so you can at least assign your name to the line that you want to do, i expect these will go quicker each time — also know that the 28 steem it coming out of my own pocket, i am currently subsidising the incentive to record the video because i believe the video message is as important as the rewards from your comments, upvotes and resteems.
ideas and software to record a video
if you have a mac :
you could use photo booth, pretty sure that comes on all macs pre-installed, export the video and drag and drop that across, that should be pretty quick to do, alternatively you could use quicktime player and do new video recording, just check your webcam and audio input source are correct.
if you have a pc :
i’ve not had a windows machine for a number of years now but i’m sure you have stacks of programs to make a video file, if possible export or save in .mp4 format otherwise i have to convert them from .avi or .wmv - try the screencast-o-matic.com website download for pc if you don’t have an app.
record using website and webcam
cam-recorder.com - records a .webm format, i can use this.
screencastify.com - record from cam, push to youtube even (send me link)
screencast-o-matic.com - pc and mac, really cool.
if you have a mobile phone:
try and record the video in 16:9 mode, that is on it’s side not vertical as the final video will look better, ideally in full hd quality. email that video to yourself and then drag and drop that to http://balloon.io/teamhumble or direct messsage me on steemit.chat if you need other ways to send it.
instructions in sending in your video
- head over to this spreadsheet - http://humble.link/spoken_2 - put your @steemname next to the line you will read back for me on video.
- can ignore bad video quality but not bad audio, audio needs to be clear, make sure you pause before you say the line and after so we can cut it together, close up shots, styled shots, fun shots, walking, turning to camera, just make sure your face is ideally in the centre of the screen.
- please title the video file with @steemitname if possible just makes it easier for me to know where it’s from and where it fits in.
- upload that video to youtube (unlisted) and send me the url, alternatively send it using wetransfer.com and send me the link or email to dmouse AT gmail DOT com
- once i’ve received and verified the video from you i’ll send you payment to your steemit account.
these are the lines we currently have left.
grab this line | witnessed by the passing of data between machines
grab this line | flocking together in swarms of action and determination
grab this line | step by step, a few moments in time further on
grab this line | past, present and future legacy written away
steemtest 2 is coming up fast.. .
in less than four days time we will be starting our trek towards Lisbon, lots of mobile blogging, recording and video making along the way, lots of creamy and delicious when we get to Lisbon and hopefully lots of smiles, laughs and fun to be head — personally I’m looking to find other video people to work with, people who want to do things collaboratively and developers that want to work together.
Hoping to get you to take part in Lisbon too! :)
I need to write something out before then,
Hoping to have read from cards ready for that
OMG I’M STARTING TO GET EXCITED.
