RE: Making Videos & Running Into Doubt

in #dtube6 years ago

howdy hebrewhousewife! I don't know a thing about videos or social media but just do what you feel led to do. Why do you want to do videos?
Once you get used to it the subject doesn't matter because everyone who is following you likes you and are interested in your life.

I've noticed that the more experienced people doing videos can just walk around talking about anything that they're thinking about that day and it works, some are blessed with a natural talent and some have to develop it so it just depends on how bad you want to do them.

Many people don't do instructional or teaching videos and can just walk out in the yard or garden and talk, I think those are the most surprising ones because a couple of minutes is all it takes, look at Bo, many times he just talks for 2 minutes about being thankful and it works.

Meanwhile the rest of us spend 2 or 3 hours of research slaving away on a post that makes .35! lol.
this probably doesn't help at all but you have alot of people who care and will support you no matter what!

Sort:  

Social media is a funny thing isn’t it? It varies so much on what people like and what they don’t like (or like less).
Why do I want to make videos? I’ve watched so many videos where I thought to myself, “hey, why couldn’t I do that?” So I determined to give it a shot. I definitely think I have to work at it though. Doesn’t come too naturally.
Hey janton, if you’re not happy with your results, give something else a try. Experiment to see what works for you!

hey we're talking about you here. I think you ARE pretty natural on the videos and I'm not just saying that. I'm such an introvert that I struggle to see why people would want to do them, that's why I was asking.

If you have a great desire to do them then I understand.

I'm thrilled with my results for the most part. why ..you got a problem with that?

You said something about research and I can’t say I do much research on my posts lol. I’d consider myself more of an introvert versus and extrovert, but if I want to do something, I’m going to find a way to do it!

Haha no sir I don’t. You’re improving all the time and I always look forward to your posts!

howdy back hebrewhousewife! no your posts don't require research but so many of mine are history topics so it takes a long time finding reliable sources and facts then accurate vintage photos.

2 or 3 hours for a history piece is about normal so of course it isn't worth it for .75 or whatever plus with the Engagement League I don't have time to spend the amount of time it takes for a decent post so I cut corners and do half jobs! lol.

Thanks for the kind words, I look forward to all your posts too. The only thing you need to work on is getting rid of that Canadian accent. lol!!
