my first video clips...

First and foremost – my voice sounds AWFUL when it’s recorded! Eek... :O

Ok, I’ll stop being a princess for a moment to discuss my first video clips. You’ll see that I still have to sort out camera placement – the angle looks a little low for my liking... and I have yet to master the editing process, that’s for sure!

This’ll get better with time! “Long Way Round/Down” this ain’t!
More like “Long Way Learning”... ;)

I won’t go into too much detail about these first offerings – you can hear/see for yourself...

I’ve kept the clips short – my first vid went for 18 minutes and was way too big to post here! From that experience, I discovered that the amount of “prattling on” I do is incredible. I’m starting to wonder if I should storyboard my narrative before I venture out to film the next one. Would that kill the spontaneity? Or would it make the narrative and commentary far more interesting? Hmmm...

Have a peek, see what you think...
I welcome any and all feedback! I want to make this a blog that will be visited often! Sign up and be a “follower”! That way, you won’t miss any of my precious video moments! LOL

Yes, I am currently in The Dandenong Ranges of Melbourne, Australia, but that will change! I hope to be adding videos from other parts of Australia, then, other parts of the world! Be patient with me... I need to sort out the learning curve before I head off to another country!

So, any tips, feedback, criticism, laughter you could provide me with, post it here... or, email me, phone me, SMS me, pigeon me! I want to know! I can take it... I won’t break!

Stay tuned... I hope to be riding around Tassie early in the new year... but, I’m sure that more vids will be added earlier than that... perhaps another longer ride will be imminent in the not-too-distant future.

In the meantime, I look forward to hearing your thoughts... :)
