Yesterday, I made four Let's Play videos in all and I'm so proud of myself. The fact that I managed to do it (with one major mess-up, but was expected) proves that I can do anything if I can set my mind to it. That being said, I should set my mind to writing stories soon and school when I think about it.
Still, those four videos clocked around 20 minutes each, and Youtube has a ten-minute limit on uploaded videos. Of course, I had to edit them in Windows Movie Maker and split the video in half to accommodate those requirements. The big problem with editing for me, though, was matching my audio clip with the video. Taking out and listening to all the video can be pretty tough, but it's all for the audience's sake (and mine as well; I'd go nuts if anything felt off).
It is really satisfying to see the finish product work so smoothly, mostly because it meant I cared a lot about the quality of my work. So even if it takes a lot of work to make a Let's Play, everything becomes worth it if people are entertained. That being said, I should start working on my commentary and speech problems...
Anyways, I'm back at my university and I'm figuring out how I could balance my grades and make Let's Plays at the same time. Maybe if I do them for half an hour each week I'd be fine, but that all depends. For now, I'm going to be on the top of my game.
