My first dTube video - Steemit Introduction

diegovista (53) in dtube • 7 years ago (edited)

Hello everyone, my name is Diego Guzman, a world traveler of 4 years.

I travel around the world documenting my experiences with the purpose of sharing them online.

My visits list included South, Central and North America, North Africa, Asia, Eastern and Western Europe... the goal is to visit every country in the world at some point.

I hope to interact with as many of you as possible, so feel free to introduce yourselves or ask any question at all, I'd be glad to answer!

Excited to be here!

Hello, Deigo, and welcome to Steemit.

Your world travel plan sounds ambitious, but you seem to have gotten off to a good start over the past few years.

Hopefully you will find that Steemit is not only a great platform on which to document your travels, but also a fine community with which you can share all your experiences and get plenty of great feedback.

And if you're diligent, you'll probably manage to earn some Steem also.

Below are a few basic points of advice re posting on Steemit.

Longer posts are more lucrative than short posts. If you make a post of 20–30 paragraphs, it's more likely to earn rewards.
Include some photos, images or graphs, to complement the text.
Make sure the text and photos are formatted properly, so that your post looks attractive and appealing.

Hope this helps for now. Good luck, and Full Steem Ahead!

Thank you SO much for this comment. As I finished posting, I realized that I had done it wrong. I uploaded to Dtube and included all the text in the description box (as you would in Youtube) then I thought, I would have the chance to come to Steemit and tailor my post, but it turns out that it posted automatically, so I didn't get to include as much info as I wanted.

I will keep this in mind for my next video (which i will upload today) and will try to be as thorough as possible :)

I have noticed 😂 even more when they're toting around huge cameras with shotgun microphones and stuff. I don't mind it to be honest, but do feel a bit awkward when it's more than 3 or 4 people staring. While filming this, there were at least 5 people waiting for the light to turn green and they were all staring at me lol

Hello cryptonewbies! I am a graphic designer, my company is based in Texas and I deliver my services via e-mail or dropbox. As long as I have an internet connection, I can earn a paycheck, which I use to further my travels :)

Yes I thought you would be doing something online. Awesome stuff!
Just out of curiosity...do you travel alone?

I ask because I would love to do something similar but not sure I could handle doing it alone.

diegovista (53) · 7 years ago

Damn man, I really should check my comments on every post more often. Thank you for the warm welcome compadre! I enjoy your videos very much. I use a Canon 70D with a 10-18mm lens. It's a bit of overkill, but it gets the job done! If you're looking to up the quality of your vlogs, I recommend getting a small Lumix LX10, it's much cheaper and easy to put in your pocket.

Wow okay cool... I actually just bought a Cannon Rebel T5 and I spent $300. It came with two lenses but I ambregretting it a bit because I am limited on what I can do with it. No AF....lol...no wifi...but I will look into the LX10

diegovista (53) · 7 years ago

No auto focus? I just looked into real quick, and it seems that it's the lens that's the problem. The T5 should definitely be able to auto focus, you might just have lenses that don't have that feature. I don't own a T5 but I did have a T3i a while back, and even though it was a starter camera, it allowed me to make great vids man.
