Since the early days of music, wood has provided the richest, best sounding instruments and audio equipment. Nothing manmade has come close to the beautiful tone of ebony wood.

YouTube Partner: My Experience

Ever wonder how many videos, video views, channel views and subscribers it takes to become a YouTube Partner? While there is no road paved with specific instructions on what it takes to become a Partner, I will share with you my experience in becoming a Partner for YouTube. In this video I provide you guys with the date that I applied, the date I was accepted, and the specific stats that my channel accumulated over time. This video is not a guideline to what your channel should look like; it is simply advice and/or insight toward my side of things. I don't advise anyone to ONLY strive for money with YouTube for multiple reasons. YouTube began as a hobby for me, and whether I were to earn money or not, I would still enjoy making videos.

My Latest Video and Using Green Screen

Last night I finished filming, editing, and exporting my latest YouTube video and got it uploaded. It is the first I've done in quite a while, but I think it turned out good nevertheless. You can check it out below:

But besides sharing the video with you, I would also like to write a little blog post about how it was made. Of course, you can immediately tell that I relied solely on a green screen for the background. You can see my setup in the pictures below. It actually took me about five different failed setups until I tried out this one; it has worked perfectly, and I love it.

When you're working on a green screen, I think it's always best to act as if the thing you're editing in later is actually behind you. You'll notice that a few times throughout the video I actually turn around and watch or gesture to what is happening behind me. This gives the viewer the sense that I really am in front of a huge screen, and usually makes the video more enjoyable.

This was the first video that I relied on for only Final Cut Express to do all the editing. I'm still a total amateur when it comes to that program, but I'm learning very quickly and actually learned quite a few things while in the process of editing this one. I think (and know) that I will be able to do some really amazing work now that I'm working with Final Cut. It is, for the most part, very professional and has more features than I'll ever use.

On the same note of editing, it took me at least four hours to edit this video. We can then add in the time for filming (probably an hour) and the time spent sitting around watching Desperate Housewives while waiting for it to export and upload to YouTube. I believe this is the best video I've done to date, and I'm extremely proud of it.

I hope you guys enjoyed it!
