Shorts

Welcome to day 15 of Thingadailies!

My goal today was to figure out how to create a YouTube short — without having to install an app on my phone. Luckily, it wasn't hard. You just need two things: the video has to be vertical (not landscape), and it has to be under three minutes.

The Mighty Gnocchi helped me out and we managed to produce a short. As always, there was a learning curve, and I had to do a couple things twice, but the whole thing is less than three minutes, so it still didn't take terribly long.

Do I want to become a YouTube star? Absolutely not. (Unless it will sell a bunch of books — then maybe, but there are easier ways to market.) I am trying to get a little more comfortable on camera. (Amazing lack of eye contact, T!)

Anyhow, enjoy.


Lulu is doing well, and I'm actually going to go clean the spare room (which has ear cleaner all over the walls from when Mister was there) so she can move into a bigger space.
