The First Video is Up!

After many years of planning, I have finally uploaded my first hiking video to Youtube. It's... far from perfect. lol. But it is my first time. My recordings are less than ideal due to using a smart phone and just holding it close to my chest to record. I'm debating whether to continue to make the actually-hiking videos or to do the style I've seen more often of just in-one-place recordings. Perhaps both for now, until I decide which I like better. The whole idea is to allow others a chance to "get out into nature" from their homes if they are unable to go out there themselves for whatever reason.

I used Adobe Premiere Pro for the first time. With the help of Google, it's not terribly hard to get started on. I have access to tutorial videos through work, so I should take advantage of that.

I threw out about half of the footage I took due to bad sounds. Some of the ones I kept still had human sounds, but it was better than the others at least. In the future, I will be more careful to keep those out of the audio.

Here's to the future!
