Look - nobody likes and endless stream of Zoom meetings... However, it did encourage me to up my video game leading to this pretty neat little basement studio. Check out the timestamps and affiliate links below. Thanks for watching! (No matter how cringeworthy I am to watch)
Things I know I can improve: My wife pointed that I wiggle around - like a lot. I need to be more disciplined with my rereading my script when I dork up OR do better masking my jump cuts to make the viewing experience less jarring. The confused look on my face should improve all by itself with practice reading from a teleprompter. There is still some banding in the shot I tried to fix in resolve but my computer isn't powerful enough, I can reduce the shutter speed - I have determined 1/40th works - I'll give that a try next time. And then there is the end card.... Unfortunately there is nothing I can do about my looks or awkwardness so if that's bothersome, maybe this isn't the channel for you.
