STEEMIT CROWDSOURCE VIDEO #2: pick a line, record it, earn 1 steem. Let’s go! :)

in crowdsourced •  7 years ago  (edited)

Feels like forever right? Sorry guys, had a lot on my plate recently since getting back from steemfest 2 in Portugal but I certainly want to get the second video finished so I can start on the next, would be great to get another one done for christmas time as well — I’ve got something much bigger planned for 2018 and I think it will make a cool little marketing project too.

http://smarturl.it/collab2 <— pick line, record & send!


Right now we have 16 quick lines of video to get recorded, it’s super simple, all you need to do is pick a line from the google spreadsheet, record your video with your smartphone so it’s horizontal in 16:9 and not vertical, vertical video is bad for the video and then upload it unlisted to youtube and send me the link or drop that link the comments below, I’ll grab it and add it to the video — once I have all the lines I’ll push the video with some overlay captions and some music and mention you all when it’s done — sorry to those who already submitted the videos, I have your videos! :)

. .. sixteen lines we have 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 (1 steem) 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 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. Upload that video to youtube as unlisted and then drop in the comments below or message me on steemit.chat as @teamhumble and I’ll gladly download the file you send, you could also send it to me on wetransfer if you like! :)

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.

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 to youtube unlisted or send me the video using WETRANSFER, my email is dmouse AT gmail DOT com! :)
  5. once i’ve received and verified the video from you i’ll send you payment to your steemit account.

can we finish before december?!

Tell you friends, share this post,
Upvote and resteem it, put it in your discords,
Print a teeshirt, make a banner, float some balloons with the url,
Whatever works for you to get it out there!

spread the steemit blockchain love! :)

You got this, bro, like The Little Engine That Could. Pretty soon, you'll reach the downhill slope where you can coast with all your toys and candy for all the good little children in the valley below.

i like the idea of a little bit of coasting, especially with the roof down and a slow pan to a man smoking a blunt stopping abrubtly and expression a statement before getting smashed into by a brand new tesla semi. we all got dem strange thoughts.

LOL! Yes, I think your blunt smoker is in a rusty red pickup truck, "hot boxing" it and listening to the Dukes of Hazzard soundtrack on an 8-track tape. Train engineers must've invented the hot box, now that I think about it.

perfect. smashed it.

I've just done one and put it on your balloon. There's actually two as I realised I hadn't left pauses before and after the first time. Let me know if it's any good.

don't put on balloon.io put on youtube (unlisted) and share me the url. balloon is no longer working properly.

Okay. I'll do that tonight

Did you ever finish the other one?

this is the second one still. i had a hd/cloud issue so i lost some of the uploads. including yours, i need that again.
