Ok, I see some great videos on some of the usual suspect sites and I want to join in. I post some ones I think are well done or offer some level of learning in them here on Electric Chili. I’d like to do the same thing with my own stuff. I think I may have to consult my son who’s constantly video recording his online video games. Maybe I can tap into his expertise even though I’m likely to take a load of crap for it. “Gee Dad, don’t know how to use a camera…LOL.”
Ok, I can use a camera and I’m actually pretty up on the technology. Since I’m a busy guy, I need some help in setting up an area in my studio (yeah, let’s call it a studio…aka basement) where I can do something without having to set up everything every single time. My vision is that I have and idea, then I can run to my studio and turn on a camera, amp, guitar, and lay it down. I don’t want to have to find a friggin’ guitar pick and figure out why my amp is feeding back. By the time I finish solving these problems, I’ve forgotten what the heck I was trying to do in the first place. That’s the situation right now because I let my 13 year old son have run of the place. I want him to be able to get comortable with the equipment and be creative but it’s clearly causing me some pain relative to my goal.
We shall talk. I shall report. I think I can come up with a compromise somewhere.
