I totally agree! Tried to make a couple of videos to record things I had learned, and they are terrible beasts. Props to all who do it. :)
Good luck getting it all rendered.
Thanks for chiming in, Jess!
You should get them online. You never know who you'll encourage by doing so.
Still rendering, but I got my first one uploaded just a minute ago! gulp
Could you elaborate a little on what tech stack do you use to make videos about coding? (like OS, software, hardware, process, etc).
I'm asking because I'd like to get myself into it, but don't know exactly where to start. :3
On the bright side, I've ample experience writing technical tutorials.
I started writing Ubuntu tutorials in Spanish for my blog, then slowed down a bit because of work; and just recently did a blog reboot (on New Year's eve!) and decided to start writing technical tutorials in English this time.
There is a lot of material I have in draft, but I'm trying to pump out whatever I can now that I'm taking a break from work.
What has helped me is taking notes while doing/researching something.
Some examples are:
And, well, I have more. Will be crossposting here all the interesting material I can produce.
Thanks for commenting, Victor!
I am on Linux Ubuntu, so I record using Simple Screen Recorder, and I use Vokoscreen to get my webcam video on the screen, too. It's a bit hacky, but it works lol.
After I record I use KdenLive to edit. It's really easy to use so far, though I still have a long way to go before I can consider the videos high quality.
I use a Blue Yeti mic, though I'm still trying to get the hang of using it. Sometimes I'm too far from it, and in editing the videos I can hear how that reduced the quality of my sound =(
As for webcam, I'm using the cam on my laptop right now. I am still looking into a good camera that will work with Ubuntu. I definitely need one as the video quality on the webcam is not very good.
I will try and use OBS software for my next series. I think with that I can forgo using Vokoscreen to get my webcam video on the screencast.
It would be great if you post your tutorials again in English. I'm still quite new to Ubuntu, and I'm sure they would help me a lot.
I like the idea of taking notes while researching. I create a cheatsheet for every new thing I'm trying to learn and I tweak it all the time as needed. I refer to my cheatsheets all the time.
For a good HD camera, I can recommend this one: Logitech C920 HD Pro Webcam, it works well in Ubuntu and Manjaro Linux. Quality is good, and includes audio capture too.
Excellent! Thanks for the advice. I'll check it out :)
I second that advice on the camera. I just got myself one of those.
Oh good! I ordered it pretty much right away and paid for the faster shipping :) thanks!
Yes, editing videos is annoying, difficult, and slow. That's why I just do live streaming instead. I didn't want to get distracted from the point of my show. :)
I've thought about live streaming myself. Thanks for the link. I'll check out!
Near the end of of my recording, I was making smaller clips to make editing easier. I also tried to edit less, though I wonder if viewers would prefer less talk and more succinct info.
Lots to figure out :)
