Haha you ought to do more of these. You're surprisingly good on camera. What an amazing difference with the sheetrock - I certainly wouldn't have thought to use it. Congrats on the great discovery.
Thanks Al! I've generally shied away from doing anything on-camera - most of the talking-head model railroad videos just are a chore to watch. Certainly that 'on camera' persona varies, and if there's some real useful info there, it doesn't really matter. But sometimes... eighteen minutes in, still talking'... holy macaroni, dude, get to the point! My wife actually taught me about the picture-in-picture feature of iMovie. She's very sharp on keeping up to date with digital media - different from my stuff, but I had no idea iMovie could do that. When I learned how, I began to get ideas. I was also inspired by your RC videos - convey information and convey fun! So... I thought I'd make a video using the guidelines I use for my entire hobby - it's going to be fun, a little irreverent and certainly mindful of the stuff I've always found to be a chore. Turned out it was quite fun - I think there will certainly be more of these in the future!
