I Am (Finally) on YouTube.

I mulled it over in my head for quite some time, and have been wanting to start incorporating or adding videos to my repertoire for the podcast and blog.  I produced this on DaVinci Resolve 19, an open-source and totally free software that rivals any professional (paid) software.  I watched several of the hundreds of tutorials on YouTube, and just didn't get it.  I am predominantly a "learn by doing" type of person, so I decided to just dive in.

I recorded a practice video that I could play around with, basically saying "this isn't really anything more that practice" and I knew no one would see it.  Armed with determination and a lot of "how do you do this?" questions, I started the journey.  Once I was more or less comfortable with the basic process, I started in on producing the above video.

It took me a week to produce this seven minute video.  At one point, about half way through, I realize I made some errors I couldn't go back and correct, so I just started over.  The second time didn't take more that two days.  Now I am even more comfortable with the software, although I know I still have a lot to learn. So, of course, I am going to keep making more videos.  Eventually, I hope to make the podcast both audio (on Podbean) and video.  It might be a while.

So, enjoy the video, let me know what you think.
