Default My first YouTube video

I took my cell phone and took a few shaky videos of my own car and then uploaded it to youtube and let it sort out. Turned out better than I thought. What do you think? It's my first one, so be gentle on the comment. I'm not sure I'll ever be confident enough to hear my own voice on youtube or see myself on the screen tho. Maybe I'll warm up to it.

In June, I'll be visiting the Porsche Experience Center and take a course, so I'll take some video. I'm not sure how much effort I want to spend making a video vs focusing on the experience, seeing it's only a 90 minute thing.

Anyway please view and comment. Thanks!

Nice job, I have a YouTube channel well! Here's a tip, don't use the stabilization on YouTube editor. It makes the images wobbly. I've made that mistake before and can see that here. Keep it up and you will get the hang of it!

I was expecting to see a real amateur effort and instead, you've created a masterpiece! Well done. If you want to get serious I have a whole set-up of a GoPro Hero3 Black Edition - Adventure for sale. I made one movie and couldn't be bothered after that. Shame because it's a nice system. I think I still have it for sale in the C7 parts section. Just an FYI and again, really nice job.

Great job for a first timer!

I have been thinking about doing a YT video, but have been hesitant. You have given me some encouragement to give it a try.

Thank you.

Nice shots of your car and I like the music. One thing you might try next time is finding locations without other vehicles. My Eye was really drawn to those two mini vans.
