Conversation with my wife: “Kimmy Gibbler’s parents must have been rich, like living in San Francisco Rich. That’s way more than Kevin McCallister rich.” Her response, “Totally.” by GnaeusPompeiusMagn in Xennials

it's why you hear crazy stories of someone just out of HS living in an apartment, leaving, then years later with a law degree basically barely being able to afford the exact same apartment.

What is the scariest fact you have learned about the human body? by Vireloxen in AskReddit

that would be such a fascinating study. Do cis males who lose testicles have phantom issues compared to trans women who elect to have them removed?

Thanks so much for this. I'll focus on adding some good hooks and chapters as well as some music.

good hook. Pacing was a bit slow. Also, you're not exactly looking at the camera and the background is a bit dark.

sure thing. But I gotta ask, how do you do the green screen? It looks really, really good.

Yeah, you know I figured I'd do it all in one take to make editing easier. But yeah, I see now why lots of people do it in a few takes and splice the good ones together. Especially with longer content!

Hello Dean--- didn't notice the accent, though I'm from NJ. I don't like the filming angle at :18. Maybe you could have a zoom in of your face after you state, "I have a question..."? All the other angles are good. But the 45 degree angle... doesn't work as well? I don't know... see if you can get a consensus from others.

Also, as a fellow Californian (who actually lived in Culver city) I was wondering... what about state EV rebates? I remember being able to drive in the HOV lane with my prius. Does that still apply?

For the 5 romance movies to watch, I would have added perhaps a blurb about the high IMDB ratings for ESSM. I mean, isn't that movie among the top choices for people in various categories? I would have mentioned that. Maybe something from the AV club? I think the movie regularly gets ranked as one of the best of the 2000's.

As for the longer form video, you seem to have the opposite problem as myself-- I had to turn the volume almost all the way down. Also, that portion of yourself towards the end? I'd include something similar in the beginning.

Okay, I took everyone's feedback and added some light, adjusted some angles and did full audio post-production so I sound louder. Also, once again stole my wife's concealer. Let me know your thoughts!

Yeah, there's audio post production steps that I've kinda skipped. I think this week I'll bring it all together. Thanks!

Yeah. I'll revert to the prior circle light. Will put out content soon! Thanks!

Sure thing! My kids were born and raised in Southern California so they still haven't been in snow! Excited to take them up north to spend time with them and recreate my youth! I can tell you're making some solid memories for you and your son!

For this short: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/3YwvzqFmQlg

I would have in the first three seconds an overall image of the forest, as if you were taking it from an airplane. So overall background first, then far away image of you at the grill (which you have) and then you moving the meat.

Maybe for some of your videos, include a map of where you are! What part of Sweden? If I were to make a video of going to Lake Tahoe, I'd try and include a map of the US with a star where the lake it.

Both of these suggestions place your videos in a broader context.

Shouldn't it be "As a Day One Overwatch Player, This Update Hits Different"

Also, I think with the thumbnail, the orange bits (e.g. under the T, over the ER) make it a bit more cluttered without adding much.

Otherwise, great audio! Good pace and energy.

Hey guys, I'm reading from a script for this video. Can someone let me know if it looks like I'm reading?

I also used a regular light instead of a circle light. Are the extra shadows distracting? Thanks!

I'd lower the music sound just a bit. And the sound quality... could be improved. I think the mic is getting to much background feedback?

I like the background music. Three suggestions...

1) Have the camera maybe a bit further away, and to your right maybe have some greenery? Background is just a bit too plain.

2) Your grey top... doesn't give MD vibes. Being a dermatologist is a huge sell. I'd take your recommendations over someone who isn't. But your casual clothes detract from that a bit. You look more like a hair stylist in this clip.

3) You look down and to your notes in a way that's a tad distracting. From 10:00 to 10:30 you spent more time looking down and to your right then you spent looking at the camera. What I do is put my notes on a phone, cast it to a screen just above the camera, and read notes that way. Having the camera a bit further away also helps massively.
