[Batman]

Maybe someday, yeah I've got a few lessons under my belt but I can't play an entire song or read sheet music yet...I would love to get to that point and if I do I will post something...

 

[Botch]

I'm trying to learn "iMovie" as we speak...

What video format is best for YouTube? I've not posted video before.

 

[Flint]

movie.files can be huge, so a format which is already compressed takes less time to upload.

That said, YouTube will transcode everything we upload to the format it wants to use. So if you use a lossy encoder, there cojld be artifacts or other degredations in the finished product. So, for the highest quality, you should upload in an uncrompressed or very low compression format.

I chose to.compress.mine into an MP4 format to speed up the.upload time.

I'll brush up my movie making skills and film myself farting the Star Spangle Banner.

Glad we don't have smellevision.

^ No need to worry about the loud ones that come in large enough quantity to last through Star Spangle Banner.

It's the quiet and short ones that are deadly.

When I feel I'm "worthy" enough to don a T-shirt with the word "Fender" across the chest, then I'll post mine. Until then, I'll just sit back and listen (and learn) for a while.

 

[Randy]

Well, I too am still a super noob and have no intentions of recording myself yet. If I had the talent of the members up above, then I would, but I ain't even close.

However, if my wife would have been doing ehr job and recorded me or at least taken some pictures when I was playing at the local jam session, I might have posted that. Actually my first time on stage when Id did Whole Lotta Love would have been the right time cuz I was playing with a bunch of really good musicians and I am sure they made me sound a lot better. But alas, that ship has sailed.

Seriously excellent work folks. You guys make me proud.

 

[No-L]

Hopefully such an opportunity will present itself again!!

I don't have much musical talent but I did buy one of these today

Washburn OU2 ukulele. Never played one, got a Uke for Dummies ebook that includes video and audio instruction when viewed on the iPad.

 

[No-L]

^^ groovy!

 

[PaulyT]

Yeah, that'd be fun to learn!

 

[Zing]

I've always wanted to play a Uke. I almost considered getting my son a cheap one to play on, but then my common sense kicked in before ordering. I could just see him messing with the tuning pegs, and one of the strings break and smacks him in the face.


Lots of good Uke videos on You Tube too Mz...."My dog has fleas!"
