O/T: Change of Youtube account!

Post by Edisonfan »

Okay, I know this is off topic, but it needed to be said. I have Deleted my old Youtube account, in favor of a new one. Mainly because my username, was not reflective, of my hobby. My new username is Edisonfans19. I had to add the s19, since Edisonfan was already taken. Once I learn how to use the I-movie program, and my webcam. I will start to add videos. In the meantime, any members on here with youtube accounts. Please send me an email, so I may re-subscribe to your channels. Thank You!

Hi EdisonFan,

My youTube account you can see in my signature below. Looking forward to your subscription.

Suggestion: I think it's very helpful to have ALOT OF LIGHT on the object you are filming when you intend to post to youTube. I turn on all available lights and shine a couple of directional lamps onto the turntable or mandrel area.

Otherwise some youTube videos are pretty dark, almost impossible to determine the type of phono in some cases.

Looking forward to viewing your new channel!

Paul,

Looking forward to see videos from you! Although I don't find your channel by searching. Can you post the link here? You will also find my YouTube channel in the signature below. And I agree with Bruce, a lot of light is smart to have. There are too many dark videos on YouTube...

Paal.

Thank You, Guys! I felt it was high time, I started doing things like this. Especially, since my mac has a built in web cam. The reason for the intro is obvious, but I wanted to add a human element to it. I know it's a bit rough, but once I get then hang of video. Thing will get better. Eventually, I would like to get a more mobile camera. So I can video tape my machines. As a camera is easier to move then the machines. Plus I would like to show off, my ads, and other collectibles. I will add other videos as time goes on. In the mean time please feel free to comment on my channel. If you have not done so.

Also, Shane and Paal, I have subscribed to you guys as well.

And to think Paul, it was a mere 3 ½ months ago that you were in fear of losing interest in the hobby. It is amazing how today's advanced technologies keep us connected and help pull us back to the romance and fun of yesteryear's technologies. ;)
