You Saw It Here First!

It's time to come out of hiatus. This "episode" will be on the video sharing sites (YouTube, Metacafe, Revver, etc.) shortly (in hi-res where available)....

Glad to see your back at it! I watch your videos very often as I develop my techniques.

Thanks,
Jeff

Hey Mantic -

My only suggestion is a simple tip - keep your video camera higher up. You want a straight-ahead, level angle to your head. A small thing, but it can make a huge difference. :)

Nice clip!

jeremy- I had read a long time ago that slight upward shots gave the feeling of "authority" to the speaker, but I do look kind of "dumpy" don't I? I'll use a taller tripod next time.

You know, I wonder then - it looks like you know what you're talking about, sure. :) Maybe try a quick test both ways, same lighting, two heights. Just read a couple of quick lines and post them here for US, your adoring public, to judge.

Been a fan for a long time. Gotta say Mantic, I didnt like the music or the animated sections of the video. Content was excellent as always.
