Making Videos for my Youtube Channel: Lessons #3, #4 and #5 Learned :-)
Alright! That's it! I've done it! I have re-recorded my video (see https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/megawealthy9/blog/making-vid... ). Twice actually!!
And here is a quick update on more lessons I've learned in the process.
*
Remember my lessons #1 and #2?
#1 Make sure you have enough storage space on your device (for me, it was on my phone).
#2 Make sure that there is nothing in the frame that you do not want there (in my case, I had forgotten some rubber bands on the table).
*
Here are lessons #3, #4 and #5
Can you guess what they are?
#3 When things don't work out. Keep trying. If that's not enough, STOP trying. Start again and do it even better. :-)
I had this sound problem with my video on Youtube even though it was fine on my computer. I did not know what to do and nobody here seemed to know either. I kept on trying to reload the video. Finally, I quit! Yes! I have learned that it is good to quit sometimes! I reshot my video with a different spin, and using my phone instead of my computer this time. And it worked. When the door is closed, check out the windows! :-)
*
#4 If you are recording with your computer or near your computer when it's on, make sure you mute the sound!!
I got a noisy FB notification at some point while I was recording. Thank God it was only once! :-) It's sunny today so few people are trying to connect with me through messenger. :-)
*
#5 Perfection is NOT the goal
There will always be something to improve for the next video. Here, I know my phone was too low and I need to raise it higher next time to get a better angle. And I need to mute my computer. :-)
*
Voilà! That's it for today. I am sooooooooo excited about my first video being published on my Youtube channel!!! I am going to need a few days to recover! ;-)
Have a beautiful rest of the weekend everyone and enjoy your week too!
To our Success,
Nathalie

Love to follow your progress and while I'm not at the point you are in developing my business I will be referring to your posts as I progress for additional training.
Thanks for being honest and open about the challenges you experience - it's so refreshing!!

My pleasure, Brenda! :-) Thank you so much for your kind words of appreciation! They mean a lot to me! I really like it when people notice and honor my honesty and openness.
Have a beautiful week ahead!

You are simply amazing Nathalie and I think I've started living vicariously through you!! You are also a lovely lady and I can't wait to see what comes next? How would one go about finding your video on YouTube? Is it listed under MegaWealthy9, or Nathalie?? Excuse my ignorance.
Yay Us!! 🌟

Hahaha! You make me laugh, Liz*! :-) Thank you so much for your kind words! :-)
My Youtube channel is listed on my WA profile in the bottom right corner. It should also come up if you search for "Nathalieu" (with a 'u' after 'Nathalie') in the Youtube search tool. The full name is the same as my blog "Nathalieu, Exploring Joy and Happiness". I only have one public video so far, so it's easy to see it once you're on my channel. :-)
Yay Us indeed!! 🌟

If at first you don't succeed, try, try, again. You did and you won. Thank you for sharing.
Ken

All the best!

PS If you need more info how successfully run YouTube channel PM me anytime.
Thanks a lot, Bob! :-) It's really kind of you to offer more info on how to successfully run my YouTube channel. I shall take you up on that when I am ready! :-)
Nathalie
Congratulations, it sounds like you are making real progress with this.
I actually use my computer to lay down the videos and, with Camtasia, am able to edit much of the imperfections out. I think a professional video look gets more engagement as long as you are still conversational.
Interesting! I am probably going to get a more and more professional look as I move forward. At the same time, I have heard that genuine, imperfect videos can be quite good at creating a bond with an audience... and since my topic is Joy and Happiness, and authenticity and vulnerability are a big part of that, I do want that bond... :-) I guess it's about reaching a balance between authenticity and professionalism... :-)

Thanks for the post, Nathalie! I plan to set up a YouTube channel and start doing videos shortly. So I appreciate your advice. I know Jay has done some trainings on it too. I'll learn all I can from those of you who have been doing videos already :)
Much success to you!
Colleen
