Autumn Has Fallen

Hey everyone,

So here we are again; another autumn. As much as I enjoy the summer weather, and I try not to wish it away, as soon as I get into August I find myself looking forward to the fall season. The weather gets a littler cooler, the trees change colour and I get into that Halloween festive mood.

To top it all off, I received a couple of horror flicks I've been looking forward to in the mail today. I just finished up an unboxing for them, which you'll see live in the not-so-distant future.

I'm not one to do these, but these blu-rays just begged for a video. If you want to see how a proper one goes, check out Pizowell's right here. If you're into that sort of thing, you won't be disappointed.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy and here's to the autumn (and Halloween) season!

Cheers,
RyHo

Frustrations

I've only been back to this video making thing for a while now, but I am having a very hard time reaching my stride!

I used to be able to crank these out effortlessly and now I find I'm constantly making mistakes and flubs, which adds to how long it takes to produce the videos. I know, there isn't much to my videos right now, but they still take time to record, set up and upload - all of which I don't have much of lately. It's leading to lot of frustration.

I've been trying to make a follow-up to my The Expendables video from a few weeks back, pertaining to the sequel which is currently in theatres, and I can't seem to stitch a sentence together about that movie. I have a ton of thoughts on it, and I keep repeating myself, and making an incredible boring video in which I speak too much and too fast.

I'm not letting it discourage me, but it's definitely a mild annoyance. I still managed to get a new video up on Leviathan - a great late-80s deep water sci-fi horror The Thing rip-off that everyone should watch.

I also decided to make a vlog regarding my old videos, which you should also check out. I had a lot of messages about them and thought it made sense to address the issue in a video.

Anyway, I'll keep plugging at it, but bear with me for now and I hope you enjoy - even if my videos look like crap right now!

Cheers,
RyHo

Working Out The Kinks

Badass.

I just posted my second video to the newly reformatted YouTube channel and I have to say I'm not all that happy with it.

I was a little too "off the cuff" with what I had to say. I think I need to script my thoughts out a little more beforehand. There are so many things I meant to talk about and didn't, and a few things I wasted time on. It also helps cut down on me "umming and ahhing" through the video.

Also, I decided to record video for this one, instead of simply using audio commentary, and I really need to get a tripod if I intend to continue with this format. It's a little shaky to say the least.

That said, I still wanted to post a video about this movie, because I really enjoy it, and I think the points I wanted to touch on the most are in there.

I hope to increase the quality of my videos as I go forward, but I'm still a little rusty at this and I'm working out some kinks. Bear with me!

I hope you enjoy,
RyHo
