First Time On Camera

I'm actually a very shy introvert that hates the camera, but I decided as this is my monthiversary's week for 6 months from joining Wealthy Affiliate, and 3 months from becoming an Ambassador, as well as uploading training over the last 3 months, that I would show my face, and voice, to all of you wonderful members :-)

I haven't used my green screen studio, lighting, microphone or gimbals. I am literally sat at my desk with my headset on, however, the audio is a little echoey, but I think I know what caused that, so I will get that fixed for the next video. If I can't, then I will get my proper microphone setup.

In the U.K. I get told that I don't have an accent, but everyone has some kind of accent, so hopefully you can understand me. If you can't, please do let me know, honestly, no offense will be taken ;-)

You will also get to meet Christine and James again, it's been a while since you've seen them, so I'm sure you have missed them haha

This training is only 5 minutes long, and is about Pingbacks & Trackbacks within WordPress, hopefully it is useful for some of you :-)

I know what it feels like if you're shy but I suggest you look at some of yutuber's previous recordings and compare them to the current one then you'll realize that you get used to it later and if the feedback is positive then become organic thumbs up everything goes well.

That’s definitely true, I appreciate your comments, thank you :-)

Chrystopher, without question you do have a slight accent but nothing to be concerned about. The video was excellent and I applaud your excellent presentation. Thank you for this great information, I will remember the name of this post so that in the future I can reference it when I am ready to put it to use within my WA site. I know that sounds strange but that's how I operate since I am a quadriplegic, I have quite the amazing memory you would be very surprised. Once again thank you.

You’re welcome Joe and thank you, it’s not strange at all ;-)

I thought you came across really really well, thoughtful and authentic and there was a real effort to keep the viewer engaged which you did through the creative process. It built up suspense but provided clarity on what we were going to learn and how it was going to be done. So say what you are going to say, say it then tell people what you said.

You have a very likeable on screen persona which is half the battle I think. You have a real skill in making what could be complicated simple to understand and that is worth a great deal.

As for the accent, well really .. :) Well done! Phil

haha I really do appreicate your comments and feedback Phil, they mean a lot, and that's exactly what I was going after, the "say what you are going to say, say it, then tell people what you said. Thank you for your detailed reply as it really does help me to create more of these, and to also venture further. It's time I stopped supporting others and do it myself :-) That's not saying I'm not going to help, I just mean instead of recording others, I'll get out there myself on the front line :-)

I remember disabling these features awhile back when some spam started showing up in my comments

Excellent video and presentation, Chyrstopher. It was nice meeting Christine and James too 👍

Thanks!

You're welcome Alex and thank you :-) I have always been involved with tech since school, but always behind the camera. Filming, recording and editing others, but now is the time to step in front of it :-) The plan is to venture onto YouTube, as me, as well :-)

Way to go, it is one of those things where we don't know what we are capable of until we give it a crack. Once we settle into things there can be no holding back.

You will do very well.

Very true indeed, and at least WA is a friendly supportive community for experimenting, along with real-time feedback. The community here is priceless, and I love it :-)
