Really enjoyed this style of tutorial video. Not too fast, not too slow. Music was good and the camera angles gave an excellent view of the techniques. Love the final product too! I also enjoy your voice over style videos. Much love x
thanks so much! 🥰
What Clare said. I like your speaking on other videos too:)
Loved the instruction via text, the pacing, ‘unobtrusive’ music. Good job!
thank you! 🥰🥰
I love how huge and pleasantly organic this mug is! This would absolutely become my daily mug.
The tutorial was very clear and well paced. I tend to watch videos silently with closed captions on, so however you prefer doing it works for me. I did appreciate that the words were accurate, unlike TH-cam’s auto captions, which are sometimes a hot mess.
This was really satisfying to watch.
Excellent tutorial, pace , no talking and usually I do not like music, but here it doesn t disturb and anyway can turn it off. Thank you
I’ve enjoyed watching your creative process with your voice, because you’re not shy about the surprises and disappointments of the possibilities of ceramics. So without music is my choice AND I’m looking forward to your next video whichever way you care to do it.
I’ve learned so much from your videos and 100% plan on making my own giant mug like this! I loved the video angles and style. It’s nice to read the instructions and “forced” my ADHD brain to pay close attention, but I like hearing your voice too! Thank you for a great video and all the work that goes into making it! 😊
Nice tips! Definitely gonna give these a try. Who knew adding curves to slab ceramics could be so fun and beginner-friendly? Can't wait to see the results! 👌🏼
I’m not picky! I’ll watch either. I enjoyed reading your descriptions and hearing the music as much as voice over. Great video! I’m a beginner hand builder so please continue hand building videos.
This video is so dope! Loved the relatively simple (I'm still a beginner, so it'll probably be more challenging when I try it 🙂) yet very effective methods of adding curves. I like the music, and the text allows me to focus on watching the techniques. I also appreciate showing the end result. Can't wait to try this! Thank you!
Great video! LV the music and all the detail instructions! Beautiful pitcher! Thank you for taking the time to post!
i like the text with music, rather than voiceover. thanks, a great video!
I like both, with music and without. But I do like hearing you explain different techniques and your tutorials are great! Thank you!!!🙂
This was a great video. Perfect pace. I think i would prefer voice over and then if I need to I can turn on closed captioning to read along. Thank you for your wonderful content.
Nice tips. I find titles very useful. They goes well with the rhythm of the video.
I loved this video, and thought the format was ideal. I plan to start on my own mug next week in the beginner’s class I’m taking.
Luv this style and without music is extremely satisfying and ASMR i like it more
Great videos! As you asked, I like when I hear the sounds of work, a little bit of music and a lot of written description 😊
Pace is great! Music is mostly nice (mute works if folks don’t like it). Written directions/explanations are perfect. I love your videos. I get so much information and inspiration from all of them. ❤
The use of arrows to indicate an area of interest and to indicate direction of pressure with the fingers is fantastic. I like the text versus spoken. The music can go either way; I like the music but there's also an asmr quality that's really nice without the music or talking over.
Today at pottery i made a mug! I have a good teacher! Just saw your video and loved it, everything perfect and will do your techniques next time as I am building up a set of mugs! Really great vid
Loved this video, I really like the captions and listening to the music. Well done, thank you!
Thanks so much for the great tips just tried a mug and those tips work awesome especially the curve on the bottom. I've been wanting to make stemless wine glasses and I think this technique will work great and cutting the bottom off the same way. I enjoy watching your videos, and am learning lots.
glad to hear it is helpful! 🥰 thanks for watching!
Beautiful ! Thanks again for sharing your ideas and your art ! I have to say that my preference goes to the voice over video and no music. 👍☀️
good to know, thank you! ☺️
Love your instruction techniques and curved handle.
this is another great video. Nice with the music and text, although I like to hear you talk us through it as well
I enjoy your videos. Thank you for creating them! My only suggestion would be leave the longer descriptions on screen for a second or two longer. I found myself backing the video up numerous times to see what action you were talking and reading the rest of the text that I missed
Thanks for the feedback! That is super helpful 🙂
I like to hear you speaking, the subtitle option is good for those who can’t hear. I don’t like the music, I prefer just the shop sounds. The quality and pace of the video is super 😊
I liked your first videos very much, when you were speaking and working at the same time.That was pleasantly personal. Thank you very much!
Thanks! I might have to bring that back then 😄
Lovely. I’ve always wanted to learn that type of pottery
Excellent, loved every minute, so clear and understandable
GREAT video!
Du bist Wunderbar! Danke!
I like both. Sometimes it's great to hear your voice and sometimes videos like this are great! I think you're doing awesome with figuring it out though 😊
Danke dir 🥰 I enjoy both formats so I guess I will do whichever fits the topic ☺️
I like the captions and the speed of the video
I am old so I dont like music, my brain cant handle both, i like the text, i liked you showed final result. Got some great ideas, I dont rinse my piece in a bucket, great idea. I think it was just the right speed. Looking forward to seeing more videos. Can you do one on square bottom mug? Thanks
That is a LOT of hot tea!
Thank you for the video. I put one together today.🤞🏻
What kind and color of glaze did you use? Yours is beautiful!
Love the video and the text .. goes at a great pace with clear viewing of what’s happening.
I found the music annoying with the ding 🛎 that continues throughout.. so I put it on mute and was able to just watch and read the text 😊
I like this style, chill music, good pace, i like both words or voiceovers, very relaxing video, but if id be in the mood to do something while listening/watching, i would for sure prefer voiceover, thanks for the content!
Thank you! I'm about to give this a try . I won't have to attach a handle though, because I'm going to make a container for my pottery paint brushes. I'll try to find tthis comment and edit for my results. 🙂
I tend to listen to youtube videos more than watch, so I tend to like occasional voiceover more, but i don't mind the subtitles. I second the person who mentioned they should stay on screen longer, though. I did look down at this occasionally and miss an important tip or two and have to rewind.
Either way, i very much appreciate your tutorials, especially hand building. I've resolved, at least for now, not to do any wheel throwing and it seems kind there are fewer tutorials of that than throwing. I like boundaries because they force me to be creative with what I have. I'm still very beginner and absorbing all the knowledge i can find, so thank you for sharing!!
thanks for the feedback! its good to know. i definitely agree with the boundaries thing! It definitely helps with creativity. I do the same by limiting my glaze color palette 🙌
Thank you for sharing, a great video to watch.
The steps after the glazing are not clear. What was that white liquid you poured the mug into ?
I like the written text but it goes too fast for me to read. I'm not a fan of music with these types of video. Ideally I would love to hear you explain what you are doing and why but that's just me. I recently discovered your channel and I absolutely love that you are speaking now!! I'm watching from last to first because I'm not sure how to change the setting
Hermosa jarra. Excelente video. Muchas gracias por compartir estas técnicas 😊
Hello there, I like your videos as they are😊
Thank you
I prefer voiceover to reading the screen because I like to “watch” this stuff while I’m drawing & I can just glance up when the voiceover is telling me to look at something specific. I think the pacing is good. It’s slow enough to make sense without being painfully slow. Edit: you should use that clay mix to make an oval box where the outside & lid are painted like a dragon fruit & when you open the box, the inside looks like the seeds!
Thanks for the tips! I like this style of video too, although I usually watch TH-cam while doing something else, so it was a little more difficult to follow without the voice. But I still watched it! 😄
nice! good to know 🙂 The next couple will be with voice anyway!
Beautiful Mug and I loved that you took it all the way to the end. What glaze is that? Did the glaze give it the speckles?
cool beats bro, sic vid too
Maybe no music, but everything keep it just the way it is!! Great instructional video.
So inspires and professionall. Nice lady, nice taste, nice music).
thank you! 🥰
I dig your Vlog!😂Thats a potters joke!😂
I thought it was great as is, look forward to more. BUT, I would LOVE to know what you dipped the mug into at about 9:15 min into the video, looked like water??? Is this what made the final glazed mug look kind of speckely?
Hi, thank you for a great tutorial! I love the style, but I can live w/o the music. Ciao!
Brilliant! But for someone like me who has big fat hands that won't fit inside the mug, how could I make that belly curve shape? Thanks
Great instruction! Thank you! Good views of what you're doing all around and inside the mug. Good use of text--I did not miss the voice. BUT I prefer no music--you don't need it, and for some of us it is actually an annoying distraction. But since you weren't speaking I just silenced it.
Excuse me please. Why the dip in water before glazing? Or was it not water? Thanks
Very good. Thanks.
Hi, what kind of clay did you use and what glaze did you dip the mug into? Thanks
Really useful, the text is great, as I sometimes watch with the sound off.
all your videos are always super helpful and well informative, i appreciate you doing them, thank you!
about the video format, honestly i enjoy both, the subtitles and voiceovers, i enjoy this changes :- ) and as someone who is not native english speaker i appreciate that you explain almost everything you do in your videos(as some of the comments would disagree), it helps me get knowledge of the "right" english ceramics terms.. so thank you!
Also can I ask you for the reason why it's important to dry out your pieces upside down? and when you are drying for example plates, do you also once a day change the piece of wood they are laying on? i noticed that the wood under them would absorb so much moisture from them and if left too long start to mold.. :- / thank you!
Thanks a lot! Yes its super important to dry the pottery upside down because otherwise you have a bigger chance of getting cracks because the pot wont dry evenly. Look for my video “drying without cracks”- i explain it a lot more ☺️
Regarding the mold, it will happen for sure if you wait too long. I dont think drying too slow is necessary, even with plates. But it depends on your climate. You can also flip the plates over if there’s a rim and its strong enough to rest upon. That will help with the mold too.
Did you wax the bottom before you dipped?
With music i like very much
Love this,, going to make some
yeah! 👏👏
How did you get the speckled look?
What are the ingredients we need to make this cup?
What kind of clay did u use? Thanks
Nice big mug. I don’t think you needed to explain every single thing as long as it’s obvious what you’re doing. The music did get a little loud but it’s better than no music at all. If you do have to write a caption then please leave it on the screen long enough to read. Great video.
thanks for the feedback! super helpful 🥰
Olá, esse esmalte seu já vem assim preparado ou não ?
I prefer voice over because i understand English better than I read. I read prety slowly so i had to stop the video every few seconds to read the subtitels and also could not pay close attention to the demonstration.
What was the clear liquid you put befor the glaze?
Hi again Mia. Why did you dip the mug into water before glazing? Do you let it dry before dipping it in the glaze?
I think you mean when I sanded it? I always use water when sanding to prevent breathing in the dust.
Could you maybe add the approximate weight of the clay when you start a project? I tend to take too little 🤩
I dont usually weight them but I think this one was probably around 800 grams 🙌
Great video :) but i prefer when you have your voice instead of titles. Although titles can help in addition to voice also in some parts!
Волшебно!!!!!!
Demaaais
Hi🥰What thickness is rolled out, i.e. I should ask someone to make my boards, so I'm wondering what thicknesses I should look for?
They are 1/2 cm slabs :)
@@PotterytothePeople thank you🎶
All great things; text speed, pacing, music.
How to glaze the bottom?
I dont glaze the bottom ;)
Regarding music: never at the same time as talking, and get the volume the same as the volume of the talking, please and thank you. This was a lovely video. 👍 👍
Forget the music, i had to turn my sound off x x great video though x x
without music
Voiceover, no music
I like the captions but the music is very distracting and doesn’t add anything.
Thanks for the great ideas! I prefer a voice over. Don't like to read while watching
Can u take away blue centered techniques. It be nice to hear at least these and I can keep my eyes fixated on your hands. Thankyou, Enjoying
Without Music please😊
good to know, thanks!
I like text but don't forget its pause
Good speed, prefer voice over . Not a fan of music….at all tbh.
Slip
Voice. I can't watch what you're doing and read at the same time
May I ask why you submerged your cup in water before adding the glaze is it because it was real porus.
Your mug is beautiful and I'm loving all your videos and thank you for the template I purchased may I ask what glaze you used I love the speckles... I'm a fan god bless.
the speckles come from iron in the clay :)
I'd rather you do a voice over, I'm so busy reading I don't get to watch you work. You don't need slip to attach your pieces together?
Very informative tutorial. As a "newbie" your explanations were great. Hearing your voice is nice as well, Mia. Thank you for all your videos.
thanks for watching! I’m so glad it was helpful ☺️
@@PotterytothePeople I have a question. how thick is your slab? thank you.
Great pace, love music in it, and I love the subtitles although I usually like hearing people speak along with it. Love your tutorial! Thank you!
Personally I prefer no music with text over. Just make sure the text stays on the screen long enough. This video was perfect for me. I am curious just how many quarts of tea does that cup hold?
I think this is great. Beginners will like the explanations. They are good reminders for everyone.
thank you! yes it always helps to hear things more than once 😆
On format, I love the pacing, but I do prefer voice because I tend to “watch” a video the first time while doing dishes or such and glance over at the pottery occasionally, then the second time if I’ve decided to try it, I am watching while also trying to do my own pottery. Most of the time I just skip videos that are subtitles only.
