Narrative

Hello, Viewers! GamerInspector4700/Will Underwood here!

So I'm supposed to write a short story about me and my project. Okay. I can do this. I CAN TOTALLY DO THIS!

(gets out my computer, types one word, and goes and hides in the closet.)

Not really. Just kidding.

I might as well talk about making my first YouTube video, my top eight game cube games. The first thing I needed to do is actually make a list of my favorite top eight game cube games. It was somewhat easy, because I only played about 20 game cube games, but it was still somewhat difficult. The next thing I needed to do was write a script. YouTube videos aren't improvised (not usually), and I had to make a list of reasons of why these games were my favorite games, and in that order.

Next is filming, I guess. I say "I guess" because, only some of the parts were actually filmed. You could do an entire video as a face cam, or you could get footage from the games, and you could make an entire video with that. You would need to record your voice, though

Now is the most difficult step in my opinion: editing. For this video, it was somewhat easy, albeit, it took a long time, but that's just because it's editing. I used Windows Movie Maker for this, since that's the only editing program I had at the time. Now, since I use Premier Pro, it's pretty difficult.

Final step is proofreading and uploading. Proofreading is just looking over the video to make sure everything is right, and uploading is more of a waiting step. It takes a bit to upload on YouTube, but in the end, it's worth it. You also should put a description in the video.

That's about it for the making of a video. I hope you liked it. For now, Buh Bye!


Side note: I'm hoping to get one more video up before the presentation next friday, and it's going to be my biggest video yet. You will have to wait and see what it is.

  1. I went back and watched you "Top Eight" video. I have to say that for a first video, it was pretty good. You have definitely improved since then. Keep up the good work!

  2. It's cool to see the steps worked out in an easy to follow manner. A small thing I noticed was that 'game cube' should be written as 'GameCube'.

  3. Very interesting. I like how you showed the steps of the process of creating and uploading videos to YouTube. As a side tip, be sure to proof read your work for any possible grammar issues. ;)
