Like tech/mobile phone news delivered to you with a comedic twist?
Well check out Jon Quatchi's Techwaffle site.
Jon used to do Vlogs for Tehkseven, a popular phone site which gave away free themes, and such. He has recently left the successful Tehkseven to start of his own project, Techwaffle. Here he still does his vlogs on mobile news, but he also does things like humourous cartoons.
The Best Way To Combat iPhone 4 Reception Woes
I came across Jon when he did his Phonage vlogs for Tehkseven, and loved his style. Although you'd think that talking about phone specs and software releases may seem pretty boring, Jon has a way of keep the information interesting and fun. It is obvious that all his videos are planned out, with him using various techniques to get a lot of laughs.
I'm at the point where I am half way through my website, which I am pretty pleased about. But I have been spending a lot of my holiday with friends and family, which is something I don't often get a chance to do. But with me not going to college next year, I am aiming to use all my free time during the day to work on websites and other projects.
Due to my financal status, I am planning on using the next few years to do small scale work and get my business plan in gear. I hope that by the time I am in a better situation, I will be getting more work through the door. Because at the moment, it is hard getting enough work to properly start my business.
Luckily I still have the evening job, so that has made the situation of earning through my work, not quite so bad. And it is also allowing me to take opportunities, such as working towards blog sponsorship (which is a possibility) in the coming months. I am also in a position, where I am working towards showing in an exhibition next year, which would be awesome.
So things are moving, and the next year or so will be deciding the best way to move further. Exciting times in the life of Sue.
The world of Vlogs is an intresting one. One where you could lose hours of your life, just observing those around. Yes, youtube has destroyed whatever life I tried to have outside the interwebs. *d'oh* Basically, everyone knows I am addicted to blogging. Well vlogging is worse. I mean I make videos so that I can see the improvements, and because I really like talking about myself.
Obviously.
I find it hard telling people things face to face, so I write about it. And call me strange (no, in a minute not yet), buuutt it is a lot easier talking away to my camera, than it is a real person. (OK, now you can call me strange) I think its because when you tell someone something face-to-face, you have to see their reaction. And if you post a video explaining something on youtube, you can kind of psyche yourself up before you see their comments. And I think thats why vlogs and sites like Youtube are so popular. And finding someone that understands you, also helps.
I find myself always on here or youtube, and I crave to see what people think. But that is kind of stupid, because I could just tell them whats on my mind, rather than stalking facebook to see if anyone 'likes' my link to my new vlog. Oh well, its how I roll. I guess.
The good news is that I am on the market to get a deccent video editor, other than windows Movie Maker, because it annoys me. Ideally I'd be using Adobe Premier Pro, because it is so easy to use. But, alas, I can't afford it, so am stuck using the package which came with my computer. Any suggestions, send them my way.
I'll be so thankful, I may even create something in your honor.
Yep, I am in need of a decent video editor. Maybe its not that the software that is fail, so much as it is me. Seeing that I have only ever made 1 other video, other than the stuff I have uploaded on my channel. Maybe it will get better.
*crosses fingers, clicks heels three times and wishes apon the brightest star that my videos get a lot better*
