Episode 4: Kodak Easyshare V603

I went bonkers when I watched You Got Tech Kid's video "Episode 3: iPod Touch". Why? Coz the video looked professionally done! I'm just onto my 6th video (3 are here on You Got Tech, 1 in An Apple a Day and 1, oh never mind, you can check out everything at my Youtube Channel) and I know I've messing up a bit in my quest to learn how to edit videos (calling Coy! Coy!!! Heeeelllppp!!!).

Anyway, moving on moving on... we're all here to learn and be challenged to do better each and every time we make a post. I just wanted to share what I've been using to create my videos. I always say I just use a "camera for idiots". I'm not a techie person and I don't have the luxury of time (and money) to acquire skills and equipment.

Here's the video:



I mainly use my camera to document my activities and discovered how easy it is to take videos. I haven't really tried stitching videos and editing that much - I'm still learning that - that's why I just normally do 1 or 2 takes of whatever it is I want to post about. I wanted to put "flying captions" (I don't know what it's called) in this video, but I couldn't figure it out, I'll go bug Mhel when I see him on Friday. Well... eventually I will be an expert!

I finally met Coy last night in the Digitalfilipino club eyeball held at Tektite and hung-out with a couple of fab people (vloggers and technopreneurs).

And instead of introducing myself the usual way I introduced You Got Tech and I was happy to note that those who attended were bobbing their heads when I mentioned that it's a tech blog for non-techies (yes Coy, it's our advocacy).

My "I eat adobo" shirt was a hit as well LOL.

Episode 1: Fuji Camera

It's been a week since the new year started and since we launched this blog. We've been quite busy behind the scenes discussing what to do and how to do it. It's easy to do a vlog, but time is always a scarce resource.

As I mentioned in the first post, You Got Tech is all about discovering technology, may it be consumer products such as cameras, USB thumb drives, or apps/software, how-to-dos and questions that non-techies like me always have in mind but are too scared to ask (so if you are a techie you'll probably get bored with this blog, might as well volunteer to show-and-tell your favorite gadget/technology? Leave me a note below please if you are willing). My other objective is to learn how to edit videos, so please forgive my humble first-video-edit (actually my second, the first one was for my parents')... I'm still learning the trade.

So, here's our very first hostage for You Got Tech, JayDJ talks about his favorite gadget -



Oh, BTW, JayDJ meant DSLR not DSL, he was quite distracted (you know... at the beach...). You may also want to check out some of the photos that he took using his camera at Titikpilipino's Photo Gallery.
