This dtube video was taken in a mall in Quezon city, Philippines. In this video, I answered the questions:
Why I would like to join the Sndbox Summer Camp
What I would do if I get in
What are my visions or goals
This was the most difficult yet most liberating task. I was really nervous because it was a public place. I realized I spoke too fast probably because I was nervous. I also felt silly having a mask on but I cannot do a face reveal as of the moment. There were people staring at me out of curiousity and I tried my best to ignore the stares. In the end, I have enjoyed it. I like talking and sharing my thoughts. Although my English isn’t perfect, it’s sometimes easier to express myself speaking.
I hope you enjoy it and I also have a supportive friend on the background!

The dtube video would not play on my end so I'm not sure if there was an error. I have uploaded a back up in YouTube in case dtube doesn't work.
This is epic!! How much is sandbox summer camp?

Hi @limabeing, there's no fee but they're currently running the quest/ competition and they will choose who would get in. The deadline for the quest for travel, food and homesteading is later today. You can check out the post of guyfawkes4-20 and anomadsoul. I read that there will be other quests for other topics in the future :)

You are epic!!! You finished all the quests! Didn't know you are in HR we are in the same industry and agree its hard to be a digital nomad.
I really want to transition into a full time blogger and just write stuff but alas adulting needs to be done haha. m
Good luck on your sndbox journey and Aja!

Thanks for checking out my entries @maverickinvictus. I thought I wouldn't make it because my video wouldn't complete uploading in dtube. It did eventually but there seems to be an error. Hopefully they accept the YouTube back up. Internet here in the PH is a pain lol.
I have yet to check yours but I'm sure you have epic entries too. I remember you're very articulate and you write really well. I'm sure that you can make blogging a full time career. Sadly, there's not much "digital" opportunity in the HR.
Good luck to you as well! I'll check your entry later, for now have to do some HR stuff :D

Bravo for having the courage to go out and film yourself. It's great, you are articulate, and your friend does a good job of jumping around in the background :D

Nice one @wanderlass! I think you're going in. It is quite a challenge, but it seems that you've nailed it.

Thank you for the encouraging words. I hope WE get in! :) You also did a great job. I saw your video and you also added a motorbike tour aside from answering the questions, that's really cool. Good luck to us! :)

This is great! Just like us, you managed to conquer your fear of filming and speaking in public. It has definitely opened us to the possibility of doing more vlogs in the future.
You don't sound nervous at all, you were confident with your answers, especially referencing your current experiences on Steemit. We had a speech of what we wanted to say in our goals and visions as we only touched the surface. Whatever happens, if anything it was for the experience of trying something new and we had fun in doing so. All the best to you! We are routing that you get out of the 9-5 and on the path of a digital nomad! :)

Thank you for watching my video! I think the nervousness lessened because I enjoyed it, plus my friend jumping in the background made me laugh. :D
I also rehearsed some lines in my head but it changed a bit when I was already filming it. I just took a mental note of what I should answer. You were able to answer the questions in your video and even took us around Bangkok, that's a lot of plus!
And I feel the same way. We may or may not get in but the best thing is we tried and this opened us to experiences we may have not considered doing. And it's fun!
And thank you for encouraging me on my digital nomad dream. All the best to you as well, Becca and Sam! :)

You're welcome @wanderlass! You have a great friend to support you and calm your nerves. It was very fun to make and edit the video. We can plan out a whole speech that could be perfect, but what comes out in the end is what is.
The Bangkok journey was due to luck as there was a Steemit meet-up on the other side of where we live in Bangkok. So, Sam had to travel through. It helped with the video, but at the end of the day its the three posts combined. One can be fantastic, but the others lackluster.
It's the effort that counts and you get an 'A' since Becca is a teacher we can give these out like candies! Keep on searching for new and fun experiences!
The support is here if you need a Steemian friend and all the best to you too! #wanderlassforthewin

It's understandable if we can't make all 3 posts outstanding. We also get to see which part of the activities we need to improve on and which one is our current strength.
I'm also shouting out my support #travelling-twoforthewin :)

Thanks for the support @wanderlass! It's true what you say. This is a part of the reason why we are applying for Sndbox Summer Camp, it's to strengthen in all areas, but especially for our points of improvement. :)

Love the mask! That looks like a pretty fancy mall, too! I hadn't heard about the summer camp thing. Good luck getting selected!
I'm by no means any sort of expert, but your Dtube video may have had a codec compatibility issue. Just a thought.

Thanks @fotosdenada. It's just a fancy area of a not so fancy mall :D I read that the next sndbox quest is for photography and filmmaking. You should check it out. I'm not sure if it will also be announced by anomadsoul and guyfawkes4-20. You have awesome photos so I think you have what it takes for that quest. :)
I'm also not techy. What do you mean by codec compatibility? I was able to upload a dtube video before and I used the same phone to shoot it. The only different thing I did here is I needed to compress the video.

The photography thing sounds interesting! I'm not sure what kind of time I'll have, since I'm already way behind on my homework (ugh!)
The codec is basically the kind of compression your video has. It looks like Dtube didn't like it. I'd say try Mpeg-4, if you can. That seems to be pretty standard these days :-)

Thanks for that advice. I'll keep that in mind for my next video. And hopefully you'll have some free time when the quest is up :)

It sounds like fun, but I have so much to get done for my classes. I'm not much of a videographer, either. Still, it does look fun!
