So I’ve been doing these videos for Nuvo for a while, and here is some self-constructive cristicism:
Louder!! You never know how loud those video interns will crank up the quirky background music that they inevitably prefer to your ramblings anyway.
One, maybe two drinks are always prerequisites to being on camera. If it’s early in the morning, that’s why God created The Screwdriver.
Should allow myself to be funnier (may come naturally with the pre-boozin’). Or maybe just let people in on the table jokes. What you don’t see in this episode: MyINDY-TV’s Scott Something-or-other was along for the tour, and he asked Chef Brad Gates and our waitress to be in a picture with him and “The Face” (he’s the “Face of MyINDY-TV,” but I doubt anyone gets that reference beyond thinking he’s either hilariously self-confident or referring to himself in the third person). That bodily part reference snowballed into a joke about Scott asking the overly obliging waitress if he could get a picture of her feet.
I think you’re being way too hard on yourself, Jennifer. It was great, and the food looks fantastic.
The problem with your voice not coming through can be corrected by you wearing a microphone that goes directly into the camera, or a mixing board that has feeds from other microphones, so all sound is captured. Talking louder in a restaurant like that would be inappropriate.
I like this video series. They’re very cool.
Phil, you’re too nice!
Actually though it might be funny to do a spoof on the really loud-talking person in the restaurant … there’s always ONE, you know?
great video… gotta get me some of that chicken and chocolate cake
like phil, i think a dedicated microphone would be best, although it’s not difficult to hear you
It’s not you, it’s the equipment. Unfortunately, most of these kids are using whatever camera they can get their hands on and none of them have good wireless mics. You sound just fine on the cookie video, because we didn’t have to fight with background noise on that one. But if I had my way, you’d be wearing a wireless mic for every one of these videos…
I liked the labeling technique Tara used in the Skyline video, tho!
Yeah, she does really good work.
