Feel like I’m time travelling today, I really wanted to get into recording video today and I really struggled with it. I’m gonna try this evening to get it done thou, I’ve got four little episodes that I need to record and they should only take about twenty minutes to do, not sure why it’s taken so long, do you ever have days like that?!

really want to finish up on this second video and start designing the next phase of this project. I’m so excited I could literally wee about it, I’m gonna need some serious help realising it and that means finding some developers I’m guessing, hopefully through utopia.io would be the best port of call right now for steemit I’m guessing.

thanks to these people who have taken part so far, I’ve got ya clips and they are in the timeline!

Still waiting on clips (or re-uploads from the follow people thou and so I’ve made those line available to first come, first served now and removed the name so other people can get in on that line if they want it, if you still want it, please grab it and record it soon! :)

@roguefighter420, @paulie2coins, @juicy-shark, @meesterboom, @mrslauren, @kodieamos, @molovelly, @leotrap, @curiie, @webresultat, @thefedora — need your clips if you still wanna take part, see below at available lines! :)

http://humble.link/spoken_2 <— PICK A LINE! :)

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 upload (unlisted) to youtube or direct messsage me on steemit.chat and send it me that way (or use wetransfer.com)

instructions in sending in your video

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. upload that video to me by sending it up to youtube (unlisted) or use wetransfer - drop me a comment to check i received it please.
5. once i’ve received and verified the video from you i’ll send you payment to your steemit account.

these are the lines that are left ;)

1 - steemit is a different kind of social network
2 - decentralized by location, colour or creed
5 - witnessed by the passing of data between machines
7 - shared among many and voted on with our clicks
9 - flocking together in swarms of action and determination
10 - step by step, a few moments in time further on
14 - past, present and future legacy written away
16 - our blockchain is like a rich tapestry of life
18 - looking for meaning in the moments on planet earth
20 - making the world seem a little bit more manageable
21 - of course, we might not be able to change the world today
23 - learn and growing together by storytelling compassion
24 - passing on respect, honor, love and understanding
25 - to every socially connected human being on the planet
