33:48
steps on how to create great slides
33:48
steps on how to create great slides first of all any slide should have one
33:51
first of all any slide should have one

34:02
car yes there's an end there there's two
34:02
car yes there's an end there there's two things on this slide there should be
34:04
things on this slide there should be
34:04
things on this slide there should be only one message now the slide has one
34:07
only one message now the slide has one
34:07
only one message now the slide has one message an issue we have as humans a
34:13
message an issue we have as humans a
34:13
message an issue we have as humans a condition we have it's it's good to know
34:15
condition we have it's it's good to know
34:15
condition we have it's it's good to know how humans work a condition we have is
34:18
how humans work a condition we have is
34:18
how humans work a condition we have is the working memory this is a problem we
34:21
the working memory this is a problem we
34:21
the working memory this is a problem we are working the memory is very limited
34:24
are working the memory is very limited
34:24
are working the memory is very limited so if you persist with having lots of
34:27
so if you persist with having lots of
34:27
so if you persist with having lots of texts on the slide and you're speaking
34:31
texts on the slide and you're speaking
34:31
texts on the slide and you're speaking at the same time the audience take away
34:34
at the same time the audience take away
34:34

39:30
then you don't want that the number of
39:30
then you don't want that the number of objects that you have on a slide how
39:32
objects that you have on a slide how
39:32
objects that you have on a slide how about that then so here's a lot of
39:35
about that then so here's a lot of
39:35
about that then so here's a lot of objects on this slide a lot of things
39:37
objects on this slide a lot of things
39:37
objects on this slide a lot of things are happening on this side there's a lot
39:38
are happening on this side there's a lot
39:38
are happening on this side there's a lot of information on this slide let's do a
39:41
of information on this slide let's do a
39:41
of information on this slide let's do a quick experiment at home I'm going to
39:43
quick experiment at home I'm going to
39:43
quick experiment at home I'm going to show you a slide and I want you to in
39:46
show you a slide and I want you to in
39:46
show you a slide and I want you to in your head count the dots as quick as you
39:49
your head count the dots as quick as you
39:49
your head count the dots as quick as you can just count the dots all right that
39:56
can just count the dots all right that
39:56
can just count the dots all right that should have taken about two seconds for
39:58
should have taken about two seconds for
39:58
should have taken about two seconds for you about two seconds so let's try again
40:01
you about two seconds so let's try again
40:01
you about two seconds so let's try again let's try with this number of dots
40:05
faster right of course there are fewer
40:08
faster right of course there are fewer
40:08
faster right of course there are fewer dots but it's easier to count these dots
40:10
dots but it's easier to count these dots
40:10
dots but it's easier to count these dots but let's take it down even further that
40:15
but let's take it down even further that
40:15
but let's take it down even further that should have been almost immediate
40:17
should have been almost immediate
40:17
should have been almost immediate there's a big difference between this
40:19
there's a big difference between this
40:19
there's a big difference between this and that and there turns out there is a
40:25
and that and there turns out there is a
40:25
and that and there turns out there is a scientifically proven inflection point
40:28
scientifically proven inflection point
40:28
scientifically proven inflection point of six objects you should never have too
40:31
of six objects you should never have too
40:31
of six objects you should never have too many objects on your slide six is the
40:34
many objects on your slide six is the
40:34
many objects on your slide six is the critical number on this slide there's
40:36
critical number on this slide there's
40:36
critical number on this slide there's actually 16 things this is your brain

this fix the slide what's the biggest problem on this slide right now I'm
41:13
problem on this slide right now I'm
41:13
problem on this slide right now I'm going to show you where does your eyes
41:15
going to show you where does your eyes
41:15
going to show you where does your eyes rest there with the people there's
41:19
rest there with the people there's
41:19
rest there with the people there's people on this slide and they have
41:21
people on this slide and they have
41:21
people on this slide and they have nothing to do with the content sometimes
41:23
nothing to do with the content sometimes
41:23
nothing to do with the content sometimes you can be effective and use a picture
41:26
you can be effective and use a picture
41:26
you can be effective and use a picture of a face or something but you probably
41:27
of a face or something but you probably

tongue now we're where do your eyes go now that we remove those people where do
41:47
now that we remove those people where do
41:47
now that we remove those people where do your eyes go now to this the title again
41:52
your eyes go now to this the title again
41:52
your eyes go now to this the title again remember the title is not the most
41:54
remember the title is not the most
41:55
remember the title is not the most important thing so make it small right
41:58
important thing so make it small right
41:58
important thing so make it small right the slide is still the same the message
42:01
the slide is still the same the message
42:01
the slide is still the same the message is still the same actually I added a
42:03
is still the same actually I added a
42:03
is still the same actually I added a year there but make the title sort of
42:05
year there but make the title sort of
42:05
year there but make the title sort of concise what is it about but move it
42:08
concise what is it about but move it
42:08
concise what is it about but move it away and make it smaller because it's
42:10
away and make it smaller because it's
42:10
away and make it smaller because it's not the most important thing so the next
42:13
not the most important thing so the next
42:13
not the most important thing so the next thing bullets and also you have a lot of
42:16
thing bullets and also you have a lot of
42:16
thing bullets and also you have a lot of real estate here on the slide that
42:17
real estate here on the slide that
42:17
real estate here on the slide that you're not using there's a lot of open
42:19
you're not using there's a lot of open
42:19
you're not using there's a lot of open space so how about making the font
42:21
space so how about making the font
42:21
space so how about making the font larger on the things that is important
42:23
larger on the things that is important
42:23
larger on the things that is important maybe consider losing the bullet point
42:25
maybe consider losing the bullet point
42:25
maybe consider losing the bullet point some people like them I don't
42:28
some people like them I don't
42:28
some people like them I don't now you're getting somewhere now the
42:30
now you're getting somewhere now the
42:30
now you're getting somewhere now the facts are popping in front of your eyes
42:33
facts are popping in front of your eyes
42:33
facts are popping in front of your eyes so the next thing here is the number of
42:36
so the next thing here is the number of
42:36
so the next thing here is the number of items on the slide one two three four
42:38
items on the slide one two three four

just in case especially if I'm doing code heavy talks I'll be able to see the
1:29:16
code heavy talks I'll be able to see the
1:29:16
code heavy talks I'll be able to see the actual code and it will trigger
1:29:17
actual code and it will trigger
1:29:17
actual code and it will trigger something in my head to say okay Joe you
1:29:20
something in my head to say okay Joe you
1:29:20
something in my head to say okay Joe you need to go and do this part of those

and rehearsals are very important when you're going magnus talked about how he
1:29:38
you're going magnus talked about how he
1:29:38
you're going magnus talked about how he started his timer I have mine right here
1:29:44
started his timer I have mine right here
1:29:44
started his timer I have mine right here which kind of shows me what time it is
1:29:47
which kind of shows me what time it is
1:29:47
which kind of shows me what time it is and how much time I have left
1:29:49
and how much time I have left
1:29:49
and how much time I have left Monica talked about hers we all have
1:29:52
Monica talked about hers we all have
1:29:52
Monica talked about hers we all have timings you want to be got to remember
1:29:55
timings you want to be got to remember
1:29:55
timings you want to be got to remember people are either you know ending their

they're paying with currency to be at that events you want to make it as
1:30:08
that events you want to make it as
1:30:08
that events you want to make it as cost-effective as it can be for them so
1:30:11
cost-effective as it can be for them so
1:30:11
cost-effective as it can be for them so you should value their time just like
1:30:13
you should value their time just like
1:30:13
you should value their time just like they should value everyone else's time
1:30:16
they should value everyone else's time

1:33:49
whatever can go wrong I typically have
1:33:49
whatever can go wrong I typically have screenshots of code just in case or

just in case like I had a screenshot of the tweet earlier I have code backups
1:34:03
the tweet earlier I have code backups
1:34:03
the tweet earlier I have code backups and a lot of my demos I am writing code
1:34:06
and a lot of my demos I am writing code
1:34:06
and a lot of my demos I am writing code from beginning to end so I back up my
1:34:11
from beginning to end so I back up my
1:34:11
from beginning to end so I back up my code the entire time usually it's a
1:34:16
code the entire time usually it's a
1:34:16
code the entire time usually it's a point in time backup so what I start to
1:34:19
point in time backup so what I start to
1:34:19
point in time backup so what I start to do what here this is all new code so
1:34:24
do what here this is all new code so
1:34:24
do what here this is all new code so this is where I start and then I have a
1:34:26
this is where I start and then I have a
1:34:26
this is where I start and then I have a separate you know if I look at my
1:34:29
separate you know if I look at my
1:34:29
separate you know if I look at my outline that I showed you earlier I have
1:34:32
outline that I showed you earlier I have
1:34:32
outline that I showed you earlier I have different steps at this step this is the
1:34:34
different steps at this step this is the
1:34:34
different steps at this step this is the code base um in this allows me to be
1:34:37
code base um in this allows me to be
1:34:37
code base um in this allows me to be able to go back to the code if anything
1:34:40
able to go back to the code if anything
1:34:40
able to go back to the code if anything else happens or anything else goes wrong
1:34:43
else happens or anything else goes wrong
1:34:43
else happens or anything else goes wrong in the process another thing to do is
1:34:48
in the process another thing to do is

in the process another thing to do is have a USB Drive you'll know if your
1:34:51
have a USB Drive you'll know if your
1:34:51
have a USB Drive you'll know if your computer happens to die
1:34:54
computer happens to die
1:34:54
computer happens to die when you're doing it and it's hard - hey
1:34:58
when you're doing it and it's hard - hey
1:34:58
when you're doing it and it's hard - hey that's my next point David about

that's my next point David about bringing the video adapters I always
1:35:05
bringing the video adapters I always
1:35:05
bringing the video adapters I always have the code on USB drives or somewhere
1:35:10
have the code on USB drives or somewhere

kill a session the first thing to note is you don't need expensive equipment
2:00:53
is you don't need expensive equipment
2:00:53
is you don't need expensive equipment right but you do need to take your time

microphone here and as you can see it's about it's on a boom stand so it's not
2:01:44
about it's on a boom stand so it's not
2:01:44
about it's on a boom stand so it's not actually sitting on the desk if I had

likelihood that as I'm moving around and even the small body movements that I
2:01:52
even the small body movements that I
2:01:52
even the small body movements that I have you're going to hear this type of
2:01:55
have you're going to hear this type of
2:01:55
have you're going to hear this type of noise okay so that's microphone movement
2:01:58
noise okay so that's microphone movement
2:01:58
noise okay so that's microphone movement noise that you don't want and if you
2:01:59
noise that you don't want and if you
2:01:59
noise that you don't want and if you have a mic off your desk it's more
2:02:01
have a mic off your desk it's more
2:02:01
have a mic off your desk it's more likely to get a better distraction free

microphone they're going testing testing one two three am and you hear them using
2:02:19
one two three am and you hear them using

one two three am and you hear them using this this is called sibilance and it's
2:02:23
this this is called sibilance and it's

this this is called sibilance and it's called pop so when you have one of these
2:02:25
called pop so when you have one of these
2:02:25
called pop so when you have one of these things here it's just a little small
2:02:27
things here it's just a little small
2:02:27
things here it's just a little small mesh screen that you sit on top of your

mesh screen that you sit on top of your
2:02:29
mesh screen that you sit on top of your microphone it helps to reduce those who

microphone it helps to reduce those who are called plosive sounds because
2:02:34
are called plosive sounds because
2:02:34
are called plosive sounds because they're explosive right so it helps
2:02:36
they're explosive right so it helps
2:02:36
they're explosive right so it helps remove those and takes them down you
2:02:38
remove those and takes them down you

2:03:01
that's important okay the next thing is
2:03:01
that's important okay the next thing is speak clearly and slowly now I know that

you know dealing with people of different accents from different places
2:03:13
different accents from different places
2:03:13
different accents from different places and maybe and they're speaking in a
2:03:16
and maybe and they're speaking in a

and maybe and they're speaking in a second language etc and that makes it a
2:03:18
second language etc and that makes it a
2:03:18
second language etc and that makes it a lot more important because not only are
2:03:20
lot more important because not only are
2:03:20
lot more important because not only are the people who are speaking have got to
2:03:23
the people who are speaking have got to
2:03:23
the people who are speaking have got to be clear but the people who are
2:03:25
be clear but the people who are
2:03:25
be clear but the people who are listening maybe in a second language
2:03:27
listening maybe in a second language
2:03:27
listening maybe in a second language they've got to be able to understand

go into that in a few minutes the next thing is surround yourself with soft
2:05:02
thing is surround yourself with soft
2:05:02
thing is surround yourself with soft material because that helps to damp an
2:05:05
material because that helps to damp an
2:05:05
material because that helps to damp an echo and we'll see that shortly as well
2:05:07
echo and we'll see that shortly as well
2:05:07
echo and we'll see that shortly as well keep a consistent distance from the

here and I'm moving around and I'm talking you're going to get the volume
2:05:16
talking you're going to get the volume
2:05:16
talking you're going to get the volume of your sound is going to go up and it's
2:05:20
of your sound is going to go up and it's
2:05:20
of your sound is going to go up and it's going to go down and then it's going to
2:05:22
going to go down and then it's going to
2:05:22
going to go down and then it's going to get too loud in people's ears so try not
2:05:25
get too loud in people's ears so try not
2:05:25
get too loud in people's ears so try not to move around and in general in
2:05:27
to move around and in general in
2:05:27
to move around and in general in relation to a microphone you do what
2:05:29
relation to a microphone you do what
2:05:29
relation to a microphone you do what them Dave does okay so Dave thoses here
2:05:32
them Dave does okay so Dave thoses here
2:05:32
them Dave does okay so Dave thoses here from the the rock thing but what I use
2:05:34
from the the rock thing but what I use
2:05:34
from the the rock thing but what I use this for is this is the distance that I
2:05:37
this for is this is the distance that I
2:05:37
this for is this is the distance that I keep away from a microphone so it's one
2:05:39
keep away from a microphone so it's one
2:05:39
keep away from a microphone so it's one hand span like this and this is how I do
2:05:41
hand span like this and this is how I do
2:05:41
hand span like this and this is how I do it look I go to the microphone and I say
2:05:44
it look I go to the microphone and I say
2:05:44
it look I go to the microphone and I say that's generally as far as I should be
2:05:47
that's generally as far as I should be
2:05:47
that's generally as far as I should be so if I'm here that's about the right
2:05:49
so if I'm here that's about the right
2:05:49
so if I'm here that's about the right sound at this particular microphone that
2:05:51
sound at this particular microphone that
2:05:51
sound at this particular microphone that I'm using and actually needs to have me
2:05:53
I'm using and actually needs to have me
2:05:53
I'm using and actually needs to have me a little bit closer to get that more
2:05:55
a little bit closer to get that more
2:05:55
a little bit closer to get that more bassy sound so that's why I'm a little
2:05:57
bassy sound so that's why I'm a little
2:05:57
bassy sound so that's why I'm a little bit closer so the next thing is and em
2:06:01
bit closer so the next thing is and em
2:06:01
bit closer so the next thing is and em em em practice practice not saying mmm

whereas when you use a PC mic it's going to capture everything all the way around
2:07:43
to capture everything all the way around
2:07:43
to capture everything all the way around you use a lapidaire mic it's going
2:07:44
you use a lapidaire mic it's going
2:07:44
you use a lapidaire mic it's going straight into the phone and you're gonna
2:07:47
straight into the phone and you're gonna
2:07:47
straight into the phone and you're gonna get a much sharper or much better sound
2:07:49
get a much sharper or much better sound
2:07:49
get a much sharper or much better sound now of course it does mean that you need
2:07:51
now of course it does mean that you need
2:07:51
now of course it does mean that you need to link them back together again at the

2:09:26
have the likes of the shure sm7b mic we
2:09:26
have the likes of the shure sm7b mic we have again the Scarlett USB interface
2:09:29
have again the Scarlett USB interface
2:09:29
have again the Scarlett USB interface but then you have an interesting thing
2:09:31
but then you have an interesting thing
2:09:31
but then you have an interesting thing we have what's called a cloud lifter
2:09:32
we have what's called a cloud lifter
2:09:32
we have what's called a cloud lifter preamp this is a pre amplifier because
2:09:35
preamp this is a pre amplifier because
2:09:35
preamp this is a pre amplifier because some microphones have a very low pickup
2:09:39
some microphones have a very low pickup
2:09:39
some microphones have a very low pickup volume so you actually have to talk
2:09:41
volume so you actually have to talk
2:09:41
volume so you actually have to talk loudly to get them to pick you up or
2:09:43
loudly to get them to pick you up or
2:09:43
loudly to get them to pick you up or they're not actually taking in the good

they're not actually taking in the good deep bass sounds of your voice can sound
2:09:49
deep bass sounds of your voice can sound
2:09:49
deep bass sounds of your voice can sound very very your life like a child so if
2:09:51
very very your life like a child so if

we're going to talk now about some
2:10:04
we're going to talk now about some improvements that you can do and in your
2:10:07
improvements that you can do and in your
2:10:07
improvements that you can do and in your home to help you get a good quality of
2:10:10
home to help you get a good quality of
2:10:10
home to help you get a good quality of sound you do not need to push thousands
2:10:14
sound you do not need to push thousands
2:10:14
sound you do not need to push thousands of dollars into getting all this
2:10:16
of dollars into getting all this
2:10:16
of dollars into getting all this soundproof equipment here it's stuff
2:10:18
soundproof equipment here it's stuff
2:10:18
soundproof equipment here it's stuff that you can do easily cheaply yourself
2:10:20
that you can do easily cheaply yourself
2:10:20
that you can do easily cheaply yourself at home in fact you don't have to buy
2:10:21
at home in fact you don't have to buy
2:10:21
at home in fact you don't have to buy anything to get a good sound and we look
2:10:24
anything to get a good sound and we look
2:10:24
anything to get a good sound and we look at some of the ways to do it now it's
2:10:26
at some of the ways to do it now it's
2:10:26
at some of the ways to do it now it's believe it or not is some of the best
2:10:28
believe it or not is some of the best
2:10:28
believe it or not is some of the best ways to get good sound first of all you
2:10:31
ways to get good sound first of all you
2:10:31
ways to get good sound first of all you can get yourself for example on the left
2:10:32
can get yourself for example on the left
2:10:33
can get yourself for example on the left hand side there you can make a stand
2:10:34
hand side there you can make a stand
2:10:34
hand side there you can make a stand around your desk and you can put up some
2:10:36
around your desk and you can put up some
2:10:36
around your desk and you can put up some plastic tubing and then cover it in
2:10:38
plastic tubing and then cover it in
2:10:38
plastic tubing and then cover it in blankets just simply using blankets or
2:10:41
blankets just simply using blankets or
2:10:41
blankets just simply using blankets or towels
2:10:41
towels
2:10:41
towels like this will dramatically improve the
2:10:43
like this will dramatically improve the
2:10:43
like this will dramatically improve the sound of your voice because what it does
2:10:46
sound of your voice because what it does
2:10:46
sound of your voice because what it does is it removes all the echo that's going
2:10:48
is it removes all the echo that's going
2:10:48
is it removes all the echo that's going around the room and takes away all of
2:10:50
around the room and takes away all of
2:10:50
around the room and takes away all of those reflections and that very harsh
2:10:53
those reflections and that very harsh
2:10:53
those reflections and that very harsh sound and makes it much more compact and
2:10:55
sound and makes it much more compact and
2:10:55
sound and makes it much more compact and compressed which is an easier thing to
2:10:57
compressed which is an easier thing to
2:10:57
compressed which is an easier thing to hear on the ears for people who are
2:11:00
hear on the ears for people who are
2:11:00
hear on the ears for people who are listening you can also use any kind of
2:11:02
listening you can also use any kind of
2:11:02
listening you can also use any kind of thick soft object so you can see the
2:11:04
thick soft object so you can see the
2:11:04
thick soft object so you can see the gentleman there on the right hand side
2:11:06
gentleman there on the right hand side
2:11:06
gentleman there on the right hand side has actually made a recording booth from
2:11:08
has actually made a recording booth from
2:11:08
has actually made a recording booth from a couple of mattresses so I suppose he
2:11:11
a couple of mattresses so I suppose he
2:11:11
a couple of mattresses so I suppose he probably told his wife and his kids to
2:11:13
probably told his wife and his kids to
2:11:13
probably told his wife and his kids to get away for the day so he could take
2:11:14
get away for the day so he could take
2:11:14
get away for the day so he could take the beds and make a camper van outside
2:11:17
the beds and make a camper van outside
2:11:17
the beds and make a camper van outside of it inside in the house and so he
2:11:19
of it inside in the house and so he
2:11:19
of it inside in the house and so he could do some awesome recording um and
2:11:21
could do some awesome recording um and
2:11:21
could do some awesome recording um and then finally there is the standard ways
2:11:24
then finally there is the standard ways
2:11:24
then finally there is the standard ways of doing it I actually use this type of
2:11:26
of doing it I actually use this type of
2:11:26
of doing it I actually use this type of setup M at times it's not quite a
2:11:28
setup M at times it's not quite a
2:11:28
setup M at times it's not quite a blanket over my head but I have a small
2:11:30
blanket over my head but I have a small
2:11:30
blanket over my head but I have a small wooden frame made that just goes up
2:11:33
wooden frame made that just goes up
2:11:33
wooden frame made that just goes up around me and like so and then I have a
2:11:36
around me and like so and then I have a
2:11:36
around me and like so and then I have a blanket that gets thrown over it because
2:11:38
blanket that gets thrown over it because
2:11:38
blanket that gets thrown over it because I work in a very very big large room and
2:11:41
I work in a very very big large room and
2:11:41
I work in a very very big large room and sometimes I can get quite a lot of echo
2:11:43
sometimes I can get quite a lot of echo
2:11:43
sometimes I can get quite a lot of echo and harsh sounds so by doing this when I
2:11:46
and harsh sounds so by doing this when I
2:11:46
and harsh sounds so by doing this when I want consistently high quality audio
2:11:48
want consistently high quality audio
2:11:48
want consistently high quality audio nobody ever knows I'm sitting there with
2:11:50
nobody ever knows I'm sitting there with
2:11:50
nobody ever knows I'm sitting there with my head under a blanket like some weirdo
2:11:52
my head under a blanket like some weirdo
2:11:52
my head under a blanket like some weirdo okay but it gives me the most awesome
2:11:54
okay but it gives me the most awesome
2:11:54
okay but it gives me the most awesome sound it sounds like I'm in a really
2:11:55
sound it sounds like I'm in a really
2:11:55
sound it sounds like I'm in a really professional recording booth a lot of
2:11:58
professional recording booth a lot of
2:11:58
professional recording booth a lot of people as well actually lock themselves
2:11:59
people as well actually lock themselves
2:11:59
people as well actually lock themselves into their closet because again inside
2:12:01
into their closet because again inside
2:12:01
into their closet because again inside the trousers you've got all sorts of
2:12:03
the trousers you've got all sorts of
2:12:03
the trousers you've got all sorts of different and clothes and materials that
2:12:05
different and clothes and materials that
2:12:05
different and clothes and materials that will soften the sound and make it sound
2:12:07
will soften the sound and make it sound
2:12:07
will soften the sound and make it sound much better so that's a good place to do
2:12:08
much better so that's a good place to do
2:12:08
much better so that's a good place to do it as well so the next thing then is to
2:12:12
it as well so the next thing then is to
2:12:12
it as well so the next thing then is to talk about video good video is not
2:12:14
talk about video good video is not
2:12:14
talk about video good video is not difficult to do we don't need expensive
2:12:17
difficult to do we don't need expensive
2:12:17
difficult to do we don't need expensive equipment and but you do need some time
2:12:20
equipment and but you do need some time
2:12:20
equipment and but you do need some time to prepare the stuff and you need to get
2:12:23
to prepare the stuff and you need to get
2:12:23
to prepare the stuff and you need to get the lighting right if you're using a
2:12:24
the lighting right if you're using a
2:12:24
the lighting right if you're using a camera of course if we're doing video
2:12:27
camera of course if we're doing video
2:12:27
camera of course if we're doing video that just a screen recording we don't
2:12:29
that just a screen recording we don't
2:12:29
that just a screen recording we don't need the camera and but do consider
2:12:31
need the camera and but do consider
2:12:31
need the camera and but do consider upgrading from a webcam if you're going
2:12:34
upgrading from a webcam if you're going
2:12:34
upgrading from a webcam if you're going to do this stuff more full-time or if
2:12:35
to do this stuff more full-time or if
2:12:35
to do this stuff more full-time or if you're gonna do it in any way
2:12:36
you're gonna do it in any way
2:12:36
you're gonna do it in any way professionally where folk maybe are
2:12:38
professionally where folk maybe are

you want to go on YouTube when you need to get good contact content and number
2:12:44
to get good contact content and number
2:12:44
to get good contact content and number one it's about audio number two it's
2:12:46
one it's about audio number two it's
2:12:46
one it's about audio number two it's about video and unfortunately the
2:12:48
about video and unfortunately the
2:12:48
about video and unfortunately the content comes last because if you have
2:12:50
content comes last because if you have
2:12:50
content comes last because if you have an engaging presence on some kind of
2:12:52
an engaging presence on some kind of

we'll talk about that a little bit later and again one of the other things we got
2:13:40
and again one of the other things we got
2:13:40
and again one of the other things we got to make sure that we do is we don't have
2:13:42
to make sure that we do is we don't have
2:13:42
to make sure that we do is we don't have backlight and what backlight means is
2:13:44
backlight and what backlight means is

that you have a window behind you that's shining light from behind because it
2:13:48
shining light from behind because it
2:13:48
shining light from behind because it means that in the front you're gonna be
2:13:50
means that in the front you're gonna be
2:13:50
means that in the front you're gonna be all dark and difficult to see and if you
2:13:52
all dark and difficult to see and if you
2:13:52
all dark and difficult to see and if you look difficult to see it's bad quality
2:13:54
look difficult to see it's bad quality
2:13:54
look difficult to see it's bad quality and people get disengaged and they don't
2:13:56

want to listen to you and it's not great for the production so the next thing
2:13:59
for the production so the next thing
2:13:59
for the production so the next thing then we look at is the camera angle the
2:14:02
then we look at is the camera angle the
2:14:02
then we look at is the camera angle the camera angle is critical now I'm not
2:14:05
camera angle is critical now I'm not
2:14:05
camera angle is critical now I'm not doing what I should be doing which is
2:14:06
doing what I should be doing which is
2:14:06
doing what I should be doing which is looking directly at the camera itself
2:14:08
looking directly at the camera itself
2:14:08
looking directly at the camera itself you can see me now I can't properly see
2:14:10
you can see me now I can't properly see
2:14:10
you can see me now I can't properly see myself on screen because I'm trying to
2:14:11
myself on screen because I'm trying to
2:14:11
myself on screen because I'm trying to look up here as well as look down here
2:14:13
look up here as well as look down here
2:14:13
look up here as well as look down here but you get the idea okay by looking
2:14:15
but you get the idea okay by looking
2:14:15
but you get the idea okay by looking straight into camera is the best
2:14:16
straight into camera is the best
2:14:16
straight into camera is the best possible position if we look at this
2:14:18
possible position if we look at this
2:14:18
possible position if we look at this lady here which is doing is she's using
2:14:19
lady here which is doing is she's using
2:14:19
lady here which is doing is she's using her standard M camera in the laptop and
2:14:23
her standard M camera in the laptop and
2:14:23
her standard M camera in the laptop and by looking down it means that when the
2:14:25
by looking down it means that when the
2:14:25
by looking down it means that when the camera is looking up at her first of all
2:14:28
camera is looking up at her first of all
2:14:28
camera is looking up at her first of all casts very bad shadows underneath her
2:14:31
casts very bad shadows underneath her
2:14:31
casts very bad shadows underneath her face her hair is acting as a curtain as
2:14:34
face her hair is acting as a curtain as
2:14:34
face her hair is acting as a curtain as a barrier and it's making her face very
2:14:36
a barrier and it's making her face very
2:14:36
a barrier and it's making her face very dark and it's not very flattering let's
2:14:39
dark and it's not very flattering let's
2:14:40
dark and it's not very flattering let's say to have a camera come up at you like

gray-haired like santa claus like me because then they get to see all your
2:14:49
because then they get to see all your
2:14:49
because then they get to see all your double chins right now the reason I have
2:14:51

a beard is to hide all my dog shins that's a different story
2:14:54
that's a different story
2:14:54
that's a different story okay so camera angle is critical make
2:14:57
okay so camera angle is critical make
2:14:57
okay so camera angle is critical make sure that you don't have your ear camera
2:14:59
sure that you don't have your ear camera
2:14:59
sure that you don't have your ear camera pointing up at you like this and equally
2:15:01
pointing up at you like this and equally
2:15:01
pointing up at you like this and equally don't have it pointing downwards at a
2:15:02
don't have it pointing downwards at a
2:15:02
don't have it pointing downwards at a bad angle so we look at some other ways
2:15:04
bad angle so we look at some other ways
2:15:04
bad angle so we look at some other ways if we can improve that now
2:15:06
if we can improve that now
2:15:06
if we can improve that now so if you look at the girl here and we
2:15:10
so if you look at the girl here and we
2:15:10
so if you look at the girl here and we have a camera that's down emulating over
2:15:12
have a camera that's down emulating over
2:15:12
have a camera that's down emulating over laptop would look like and then we have
2:15:14
laptop would look like and then we have
2:15:14
laptop would look like and then we have a camera on top that looks straight at
2:15:15
a camera on top that looks straight at
2:15:15
a camera on top that looks straight at the eye now I have an XPS laptop and I
2:15:19
the eye now I have an XPS laptop and I
2:15:19
the eye now I have an XPS laptop and I was talking to a chap about earlier on
2:15:21
was talking to a chap about earlier on
2:15:21
was talking to a chap about earlier on and those of you who know about
2:15:23
and those of you who know about
2:15:23
and those of you who know about different laptops and Technology know
2:15:25
different laptops and Technology know
2:15:25
different laptops and Technology know that the Dell XPS laptop had a camera
2:15:28
that the Dell XPS laptop had a camera
2:15:28
that the Dell XPS laptop had a camera that was actually right down at the
2:15:30
that was actually right down at the
2:15:30
that was actually right down at the bottom of the screen of the laptop in
2:15:33
bottom of the screen of the laptop in
2:15:33
bottom of the screen of the laptop in the last edition the new edition they've
2:15:35
the last edition the new edition they've
2:15:35
the last edition the new edition they've moved to the top but in the last edition
2:15:36
moved to the top but in the last edition
2:15:36
moved to the top but in the last edition it was in the bottom and this meant that
2:15:38
it was in the bottom and this meant that
2:15:38
it was in the bottom and this meant that it was constantly pointing up like this
2:15:41
it was constantly pointing up like this
2:15:41
it was constantly pointing up like this and but at an extreme extreme angle so
2:15:44
and but at an extreme extreme angle so
2:15:44
and but at an extreme extreme angle so that it actually became known as the
2:15:46
that it actually became known as the
2:15:46
that it actually became known as the nose cam right so you don't want your
2:15:49
nose cam right so you don't want your
2:15:49
nose cam right so you don't want your camera pointing up your nose and showing
2:15:51
camera pointing up your nose and showing
2:15:51
camera pointing up your nose and showing people what you have up your nose it's
2:15:53
people what you have up your nose it's
2:15:53
people what you have up your nose it's not a good picture image to have so make
2:15:56
not a good picture image to have so make
2:15:56
not a good picture image to have so make sure that you have your camera angle as
2:15:57
sure that you have your camera angle as
2:15:57
sure that you have your camera angle as tight as you can
2:15:58
tight as you can
2:15:58
tight as you can looking straight at your eyes as much as
2:16:00
looking straight at your eyes as much as
2:16:00
looking straight at your eyes as much as possible the next thing is camera height
2:16:03
possible the next thing is camera height
2:16:03
possible the next thing is camera height okay it's important not necessary to
2:16:06
okay it's important not necessary to
2:16:06
okay it's important not necessary to have you be looking at the camera and
2:16:08
have you be looking at the camera and
2:16:08
have you be looking at the camera and the camera is kind of down there okay
2:16:10
the camera is kind of down there okay
2:16:10
the camera is kind of down there okay got my hands here into the shot so you
2:16:12
got my hands here into the shot so you
2:16:12
got my hands here into the shot so you don't want the camera angle to be down
2:16:13
don't want the camera angle to be down
2:16:13
don't want the camera angle to be down there you want the camera to be up level
2:16:15
there you want the camera to be up level
2:16:15
there you want the camera to be up level with your eyes so if you look at this
2:16:17
with your eyes so if you look at this
2:16:17
with your eyes so if you look at this guy here his laptop is down so he can't
2:16:20
guy here his laptop is down so he can't
2:16:20
guy here his laptop is down so he can't help that it's going to point up so it's
2:16:22
help that it's going to point up so it's
2:16:22
help that it's going to point up so it's just propped a few books underneath the
2:16:23
just propped a few books underneath the
2:16:23
just propped a few books underneath the thing and that gets it open more level
2:16:25
thing and that gets it open more level
2:16:25
thing and that gets it open more level with the eye so again it's much more
2:16:27
with the eye so again it's much more
2:16:27
with the eye so again it's much more natural to be looking straight in like
2:16:28
natural to be looking straight in like
2:16:29
natural to be looking straight in like that at the camera and if you ever look
2:16:30
that at the camera and if you ever look
2:16:30
that at the camera and if you ever look at an interview on TV you'll see people
2:16:32
at an interview on TV you'll see people
2:16:32
at an interview on TV you'll see people look straight at the camera they always
2:16:34
look straight at the camera they always
2:16:34
look straight at the camera they always say look at their hands don't look at
2:16:35
say look at their hands don't look at
2:16:35
say look at their hands don't look at the camera man so I'm looking straight
2:16:37
the camera man so I'm looking straight
2:16:37
the camera man so I'm looking straight at the air at the lens and their friend
2:16:39
at the air at the lens and their friend
2:16:39
at the air at the lens and their friend looking straight into your eyes okay so
2:16:41
looking straight into your eyes okay so
2:16:41
looking straight into your eyes okay so in the next one then we're going to look
2:16:43
in the next one then we're going to look
2:16:43
in the next one then we're going to look at framing the shot so framing the shot
2:16:46
at framing the shot so framing the shot
2:16:46
at framing the shot so framing the shot is also important when you look at me
2:16:48
is also important when you look at me
2:16:48
is also important when you look at me here I'm showing just my shoulders and
2:16:51
here I'm showing just my shoulders and
2:16:51
here I'm showing just my shoulders and my head and it fills the frame nicely so
2:16:53
my head and it fills the frame nicely so
2:16:53
my head and it fills the frame nicely so if you're too far back it's distracting
2:16:56
if you're too far back it's distracting
2:16:56
if you're too far back it's distracting number one and number two your sound
2:16:58
number one and number two your sound
2:16:58
number one and number two your sound will be bad because you're gonna be here
2:17:02
will be bad because you're gonna be here
2:17:02
will be bad because you're gonna be here so not only does it look bad it sounds
2:17:05
so not only does it look bad it sounds
2:17:05
so not only does it look bad it sounds bad and then of course if you bring
2:17:07
bad and then of course if you bring
2:17:07
bad and then of course if you bring yourself in far too close it looks even
2:17:11
yourself in far too close it looks even
2:17:11
yourself in far too close it looks even worse but it can sound even better okay
2:17:14
worse but it can sound even better okay
2:17:14
worse but it can sound even better okay so that's my rocks to our voice we'll
2:17:17
so that's my rocks to our voice we'll
2:17:17
so that's my rocks to our voice we'll hear more of that from Dave later on I'm
2:17:18
hear more of that from Dave later on I'm
2:17:18
hear more of that from Dave later on I'm sure okay the next say
2:17:20
sure okay the next say
2:17:20
sure okay the next say you're gonna look at them is the key
2:17:22
you're gonna look at them is the key
2:17:22
you're gonna look at them is the key takeaways for video number one do not
2:17:26
takeaways for video number one do not
2:17:26
takeaways for video number one do not have a cluttered background tidy up your
2:17:28
have a cluttered background tidy up your
2:17:28
have a cluttered background tidy up your space okay and if you can't tidy up your
2:17:31
space okay and if you can't tidy up your
2:17:31
space okay and if you can't tidy up your space we look at using a green screen I
2:17:33
space we look at using a green screen I
2:17:33
space we look at using a green screen I would not like to show you what's behind
2:17:35
would not like to show you what's behind
2:17:35
would not like to show you what's behind me right now in my workshop it's
2:17:36
me right now in my workshop it's
2:17:36
me right now in my workshop it's appalling if if my better half saw this
2:17:39
appalling if if my better half saw this
2:17:39
appalling if if my better half saw this she would kill me
2:17:40
she would kill me
2:17:40
she would kill me yeah number two what we want to do is we
2:17:43
yeah number two what we want to do is we
2:17:43
yeah number two what we want to do is we want to have some ensure that we don't
2:17:48
want to have some ensure that we don't
2:17:48
want to have some ensure that we don't have too much space above our head so if
2:17:49
have too much space above our head so if
2:17:49
have too much space above our head so if I'm down like this it doesn't look as
2:17:51
I'm down like this it doesn't look as
2:17:51
I'm down like this it doesn't look as good as if I'm up here and make sure
2:17:54
good as if I'm up here and make sure
2:17:54
good as if I'm up here and make sure that you have good eye contact okay I'm
2:17:56
that you have good eye contact okay I'm
2:17:56
that you have good eye contact okay I'm reading a lot for my screen I'm trying
2:17:57
reading a lot for my screen I'm trying
2:17:57
reading a lot for my screen I'm trying to watch it I'm doing so I don't have
2:17:59
to watch it I'm doing so I don't have
2:17:59
to watch it I'm doing so I don't have excellent eye contact but it's important
2:18:01
excellent eye contact but it's important
2:18:01
excellent eye contact but it's important to keep coming back to the camera all
2:18:03
to keep coming back to the camera all
2:18:03
to keep coming back to the camera all the time and still look if we have poor
2:18:06
the time and still look if we have poor
2:18:06
the time and still look if we have poor lighting or the upward angle and no eye
2:18:08
lighting or the upward angle and no eye
2:18:08
lighting or the upward angle and no eye contact we can see what the result is
2:18:10
contact we can see what the result is
2:18:10
contact we can see what the result is there in the middle it doesn't look
2:18:11
there in the middle it doesn't look
2:18:11
there in the middle it doesn't look great and then the good result although
2:18:14
great and then the good result although
2:18:14
great and then the good result although we have a still not a great background
2:18:16
we have a still not a great background
2:18:16
we have a still not a great background is the one on the right hand side we've
2:18:18
is the one on the right hand side we've
2:18:18
is the one on the right hand side we've got good lighting good framing and we
2:18:20
got good lighting good framing and we
2:18:20
got good lighting good framing and we got good eye contact okay so the next
2:18:23
got good eye contact okay so the next
2:18:23
got good eye contact okay so the next thing I'm we're going to talk about is
2:18:25
thing I'm we're going to talk about is
2:18:25
thing I'm we're going to talk about is green screen so green screen if we look
2:18:28
green screen so green screen if we look
2:18:28
green screen so green screen if we look at it and on the left hand side we can
2:18:31
at it and on the left hand side we can
2:18:31
at it and on the left hand side we can see the lady is there and she is talking
2:18:34
see the lady is there and she is talking
2:18:34
see the lady is there and she is talking away it she's at her desk and behind her
2:18:36
away it she's at her desk and behind her
2:18:36
away it she's at her desk and behind her is the busy office everybody's working
2:18:41
is the busy office everybody's working
2:18:41
is the busy office everybody's working away and it's quite distracting where is
2:18:43
away and it's quite distracting where is
2:18:43
away and it's quite distracting where is on the right hand side she has a static
2:18:46
on the right hand side she has a static
2:18:46
on the right hand side she has a static M picture behind her it's not
2:18:49
M picture behind her it's not
2:18:49
M picture behind her it's not distracting and it's easy for us to
2:18:50
distracting and it's easy for us to
2:18:50
distracting and it's easy for us to focus on the presenter on the presenters
2:18:53
focus on the presenter on the presenters
2:18:53
focus on the presenter on the presenters content and not on the distracting
2:18:55
content and not on the distracting
2:18:55
content and not on the distracting background saying oh I their very nice
2:18:59
background saying oh I their very nice
2:18:59
background saying oh I their very nice beams on the ceiling I wonder where is
2:19:01
beams on the ceiling I wonder where is
2:19:01
beams on the ceiling I wonder where is that if that's kind of a rustic thing is
2:19:02
that if that's kind of a rustic thing is
2:19:02
that if that's kind of a rustic thing is that out in the country so that type of
2:19:04
that out in the country so that type of
2:19:04
that out in the country so that type of thing the next thing then in the green
2:19:07
thing the next thing then in the green
2:19:07
thing the next thing then in the green screen M thing is we can look at ways to
2:19:09
screen M thing is we can look at ways to
2:19:09
screen M thing is we can look at ways to get green screen so here's two
2:19:12
get green screen so here's two
2:19:12
get green screen so here's two particular ways for example we can use a
2:19:14
particular ways for example we can use a
2:19:14
particular ways for example we can use a product called M now you're hearing one
2:19:16
product called M now you're hearing one
2:19:16
product called M now you're hearing one of my golden rules there don't have
2:19:19
of my golden rules there don't have
2:19:19
of my golden rules there don't have distractions in the room I don't know if
2:19:21
distractions in the room I don't know if
2:19:21
distractions in the room I don't know if you can hear that but one of my dogs is
2:19:22
you can hear that but one of my dogs is
2:19:22
you can hear that but one of my dogs is whining to get out so I'm going to leave
2:19:24
whining to get out so I'm going to leave
2:19:24
whining to get out so I'm going to leave it on the screen for five seconds for a
2:19:26
it on the screen for five seconds for a
2:19:26
it on the screen for five seconds for a letter note one
2:19:33
for five and I'm back in okay so and
2:19:39
for five and I'm back in okay so and
2:19:39
for five and I'm back in okay so and puppies are good distractions now the
2:19:42
puppies are good distractions now the
2:19:42
puppies are good distractions now the next thing is and we're looking here at
2:19:44
next thing is and we're looking here at
2:19:44
next thing is and we're looking here at ways that we can use a green screen if
2:19:46
ways that we can use a green screen if
2:19:46
ways that we can use a green screen if we don't actually have a proper green
2:19:48
we don't actually have a proper green
2:19:48
we don't actually have a proper green screen so the first one is a piece of
2:19:51
screen so the first one is a piece of
2:19:51
screen so the first one is a piece of software called chroma cam so if you go
2:19:54
software called chroma cam so if you go
2:19:54
software called chroma cam so if you go on a Bingle that up and by the way I'm
2:19:57
on a Bingle that up and by the way I'm
2:19:57
on a Bingle that up and by the way I'm going off script here the thing it's
2:20:00
going off script here the thing it's
2:20:00
going off script here the thing it's called bingling I'm not sure if anybody
2:20:02
called bingling I'm not sure if anybody
2:20:02
called bingling I'm not sure if anybody is aware of that it's a mixture of going
2:20:05
is aware of that it's a mixture of going
2:20:05
is aware of that it's a mixture of going to Google something and going to Bing
2:20:07
to Google something and going to Bing
2:20:07
to Google something and going to Bing something because you're never quite
2:20:08
something because you're never quite
2:20:08
something because you're never quite sure which is going to give you the best
2:20:09
sure which is going to give you the best
2:20:09
sure which is going to give you the best results so you Bingle something so if
2:20:11
results so you Bingle something so if
2:20:11
results so you Bingle something so if you go and bingo yourself chroma cam
2:20:13
you go and bingo yourself chroma cam
2:20:13
you go and bingo yourself chroma cam you'll be able to find this piece of
2:20:14
you'll be able to find this piece of

you'll be able to find this piece of software and it comes out and first of
2:20:18
software and it comes out and first of
2:20:18
software and it comes out and first of all there's a a free version I think it
2:20:21
all there's a a free version I think it
2:20:21
all there's a a free version I think it puts a logo across the bottom and the
2:20:23
puts a logo across the bottom and the
2:20:23
puts a logo across the bottom and the other version is reasonably cheap it's
2:20:25
other version is reasonably cheap it's
2:20:25
other version is reasonably cheap it's only at 20 or 30 bucks and but it gives
2:20:28
only at 20 or 30 bucks and but it gives
2:20:28
only at 20 or 30 bucks and but it gives you a good sharp bit of AI that removes
2:20:31
you a good sharp bit of AI that removes

you a good sharp bit of AI that removes the background behind you so you can see
2:20:33
the background behind you so you can see
2:20:33
the background behind you so you can see there for example in the back of me I'm
2:20:36
there for example in the back of me I'm
2:20:36
there for example in the back of me I'm actually using the standard green screen
2:20:37
actually using the standard green screen
2:20:37
actually using the standard green screen and it's nice and sharp okay there's no
2:20:40

2:20:40
and it's nice and sharp okay there's no fuzz if I took away my green screen it
2:20:42
fuzz if I took away my green screen it
2:20:43
fuzz if I took away my green screen it wouldn't be when we look at what chrome
2:20:45
wouldn't be when we look at what chrome
2:20:45
wouldn't be when we look at what chrome icon is doing there it's giving that
2:20:46
icon is doing there it's giving that
2:20:46
icon is doing there it's giving that nice background secondly if you look at
2:20:49
nice background secondly if you look at

nice background secondly if you look at the likes of Skype or teams you can get
2:20:52
the likes of Skype or teams you can get
2:20:52
the likes of Skype or teams you can get an auto blur of the background so folk
2:20:54
an auto blur of the background so folk
2:20:54
an auto blur of the background so folk can be doing whatever they want in the
2:20:55
can be doing whatever they want in the
2:20:55
can be doing whatever they want in the background but it's not going to be as
2:20:57
background but it's not going to be as
2:20:57
background but it's not going to be as distracting now the next level up is
2:21:00
distracting now the next level up is
2:21:00
distracting now the next level up is when you actually get a real green
2:21:01
when you actually get a real green
2:21:01
when you actually get a real green screen so there's a few ways of doing
2:21:03
screen so there's a few ways of doing

portion of your head that's going to get captured by the camera and that will
2:21:16
captured by the camera and that will
2:21:16
captured by the camera and that will give you a good green screen effect and
2:21:18
give you a good green screen effect and

give you a good green screen effect and the other thing you can do is what I do
2:21:20
the other thing you can do is what I do

is exactly what I use so I found that having all sorts of bars and everything
2:21:50
having all sorts of bars and everything
2:21:50
having all sorts of bars and everything else behind me was just taking too long
2:21:52
else behind me was just taking too long

we want to talk about recording videos and screens in the software that we're
2:22:29
and screens in the software that we're

and screens in the software that we're going to use to get that stuff going my
2:22:32
going to use to get that stuff going my
2:22:32
going to use to get that stuff going my main tool my go-to tool all the time is
2:22:35
main tool my go-to tool all the time is
2:22:35
main tool my go-to tool all the time is Camtasia and Camtasia is easy to learn
2:22:39
Camtasia and Camtasia is easy to learn
2:22:39
Camtasia and Camtasia is easy to learn it's reasonably cheap and it does a

it's reasonably cheap and it does a
2:22:41
it's reasonably cheap and it does a fantastic job
2:22:42
fantastic job
2:22:42
fantastic job it has its glitches and everything else
2:22:44
it has its glitches and everything else
2:22:44
it has its glitches and everything else but it's very very simple to use so if
2:22:46
but it's very very simple to use so if

but it's very very simple to use so if you're looking to do some quality
2:22:47
you're looking to do some quality
2:22:47
you're looking to do some quality recording I would strongly recommend
2:22:49
recording I would strongly recommend
2:22:49
recording I would strongly recommend that you have a look at Camtasia if you
2:22:52
that you have a look at Camtasia if you
2:22:52
that you have a look at Camtasia if you start getting into more video editing
2:22:54
start getting into more video editing
2:22:54
start getting into more video editing rather than screencasting you then need
2:22:56
rather than screencasting you then need
2:22:56
rather than screencasting you then need to raise up and look at something a
2:22:58
to raise up and look at something a
2:22:58
to raise up and look at something a little bit better than Camtasia or
2:22:59
little bit better than Camtasia or
2:22:59
little bit better than Camtasia or perhaps and one of the ones that I use
2:23:01
perhaps and one of the ones that I use
2:23:01
perhaps and one of the ones that I use for heavy video editing is Premiere Pro
2:23:03
for heavy video editing is Premiere Pro
2:23:03
for heavy video editing is Premiere Pro it's not easy to learn there's a lot in
2:23:06
it's not easy to learn there's a lot in
2:23:06
it's not easy to learn there's a lot in it and but it's very very powerful so
2:23:08
it and but it's very very powerful so
2:23:08
it and but it's very very powerful so it's well worth looking at if you're
2:23:10
it's well worth looking at if you're
2:23:10
it's well worth looking at if you're considering getting into all of it video
2:23:12
considering getting into all of it video
2:23:12
considering getting into all of it video heavy stuff the next thing then is audio
2:23:15
heavy stuff the next thing then is audio
2:23:15
heavy stuff the next thing then is audio and there's two things that I use to
2:23:18
and there's two things that I use to
2:23:18
and there's two things that I use to record audio first of all it's important
2:23:20
record audio first of all it's important
2:23:20
record audio first of all it's important that um I don't record my audio and my
2:23:24
that um I don't record my audio and my
2:23:24
that um I don't record my audio and my video generally at the same time or if I
2:23:26
video generally at the same time or if I
2:23:26
video generally at the same time or if I do they're recorded on separate devices
2:23:28
do they're recorded on separate devices
2:23:28
do they're recorded on separate devices so I record my video straight through a
2:23:31
so I record my video straight through a
2:23:31
so I record my video straight through a streaming device into my PC and then my
2:23:35
streaming device into my PC and then my
2:23:35
streaming device into my PC and then my audio I record through a separate device
2:23:37
audio I record through a separate device
2:23:37
audio I record through a separate device which goes on to a drive and then I
2:23:40
which goes on to a drive and then I
2:23:40
which goes on to a drive and then I bring the two back together again and
2:23:41
bring the two back together again and
2:23:41
bring the two back together again and the reason is is that I haven't yet
2:23:43
the reason is is that I haven't yet
2:23:43
the reason is is that I haven't yet found one piece of software that's
2:23:45
found one piece of software that's
2:23:45
found one piece of software that's awesome for both video and for audio
2:23:48
awesome for both video and for audio
2:23:48
awesome for both video and for audio together so I have to use two different
2:23:50
together so I have to use two different
2:23:50
together so I have to use two different things to get the best of both worlds
2:23:52
things to get the best of both worlds
2:23:52
things to get the best of both worlds and bring them all back together again
2:23:54
and bring them all back together again
2:23:54
and bring them all back together again audacity is an absolute

remove automatically that background noise I went silent for a reason and
2:25:20
noise I went silent for a reason and
2:25:20
noise I went silent for a reason and that is is that sometimes what you want
2:25:22
that is is that sometimes what you want

that is is that sometimes what you want to do and you find it a lot of
2:25:25
to do and you find it a lot of
2:25:25
to do and you find it a lot of professional audio is that they don't
2:25:28
professional audio is that they don't
2:25:28
professional audio is that they don't allow any little background sound to
2:25:31
allow any little background sound to
2:25:31
allow any little background sound to creep in at all they want it to be
2:25:32
creep in at all they want it to be
2:25:32
creep in at all they want it to be completely silent and you can do this as
2:25:36
completely silent and you can do this as
2:25:36
completely silent and you can do this as well in this software you can say when
2:25:38
well in this software you can say when
2:25:38
well in this software you can say when the sound drops below a certain level
2:25:41
the sound drops below a certain level
2:25:41
the sound drops below a certain level will then cut it out and make it silent
2:25:46
will then cut it out and make it silent
2:25:46
will then cut it out and make it silent okay so that's another one you can do

was
3:29:47
was we can both answer it I think that first
3:29:50
we can both answer it I think that first
3:29:50
we can both answer it I think that first of all you should of course do like
3:29:52
of all you should of course do like
3:29:52
of all you should of course do like broad strokes and then analogies talk
3:29:55
broad strokes and then analogies talk
3:29:55
broad strokes and then analogies talk about something which is like what they
3:29:58
about something which is like what they
3:29:58
about something which is like what they are what the technology is like and
3:30:00
are what the technology is like and

3:30:03
storytelling comes really well in hand
3:30:03
storytelling comes really well in hand here you can probably often find the
3:30:05
here you can probably often find the
3:30:05
here you can probably often find the story something similar to what you're
3:30:08
story something similar to what you're
3:30:08
story something similar to what you're talking about you know that's like yeah
3:30:09
talking about you know that's like yeah
3:30:09
talking about you know that's like yeah that's actually like riding a horse or
3:30:12
that's actually like riding a horse or
3:30:12
that's actually like riding a horse or you know I don't know what that's gonna
3:30:13
you know I don't know what that's gonna
3:30:13
you know I don't know what that's gonna be right and that you you cannot maybe
3:30:16
be right and that you you cannot maybe
3:30:16
be right and that you you cannot maybe go in depth to your nerdy passionate
3:30:20
go in depth to your nerdy passionate
3:30:20
go in depth to your nerdy passionate stuff because it's gonna not not it's
3:30:22
stuff because it's gonna not not it's
3:30:22
stuff because it's gonna not not it's gonna not resonate with people if
3:30:23
gonna not resonate with people if
3:30:23
gonna not resonate with people if they've never heard about the technology
3:30:25
they've never heard about the technology
3:30:25
they've never heard about the technology before so at that point you have to like
3:30:27
before so at that point you have to like
3:30:27
before so at that point you have to like bring it up to a less technical or time
3:30:31
bring it up to a less technical or time
3:30:31
bring it up to a less technical or time location when there's my phone I think
3:30:38
location when there's my phone I think
3:30:38
location when there's my phone I think that's okay and and so that's that's
3:30:42
that's okay and and so that's that's
3:30:42
that's okay and and so that's that's probably what you need to do
3:30:43
probably what you need to do
3:30:43
probably what you need to do storytelling tell a story about

3:32:20
it works Baba blah no real-world
3:32:20
it works Baba blah no real-world experience you know and and there are
3:32:25
experience you know and and there are
3:32:25
experience you know and and there are some common bloopers when we present for
3:32:28
some common bloopers when we present for
3:32:28
some common bloopers when we present for example as a programmer I have seen lots
3:32:31
example as a programmer I have seen lots
3:32:31
example as a programmer I have seen lots of our fellow programmers when they go
3:32:33
of our fellow programmers when they go
3:32:33
of our fellow programmers when they go they compile a code that they want to
3:32:36
they compile a code that they want to
3:32:36
they compile a code that they want to show how to write this code or some
3:32:38
show how to write this code or some
3:32:38
show how to write this code or some snippet out of it and Internet just
3:32:40
snippet out of it and Internet just
3:32:40
snippet out of it and Internet just doesn't work so here's one of my tips
3:32:45
doesn't work so here's one of my tips
3:32:45
doesn't work so here's one of my tips that I try to tell beginner speakers or
3:32:50
that I try to tell beginner speakers or
3:32:50
that I try to tell beginner speakers or maybe all speakers never relying on the
3:32:52
maybe all speakers never relying on the
3:32:52
maybe all speakers never relying on the internet ever right you cannot guarantee
3:32:57
internet ever right you cannot guarantee
3:32:57
internet ever right you cannot guarantee it works I've seen keynotes completely
3:33:01
it works I've seen keynotes completely
3:33:01
it works I've seen keynotes completely fail because of the Internet right I've
3:33:03
fail because of the Internet right I've
3:33:03
fail because of the Internet right I've seen many many talks and as soon as that
3:33:05
seen many many talks and as soon as that
3:33:05
seen many many talks and as soon as that happens your your audience is gone right
3:33:10
happens your your audience is gone right
3:33:10
happens your your audience is gone right and so that's why I you know if I do
3:33:15
and so that's why I you know if I do
3:33:15
and so that's why I you know if I do like a code demo or something like that
3:33:17
like a code demo or something like that
3:33:17
like a code demo or something like that I pre record it right and if you want to
3:33:21
I pre record it right and if you want to
3:33:21
I pre record it right and if you want to do it live then fine but have that as a
3:33:24
do it live then fine but have that as a
3:33:24
do it live then fine but have that as a backup right because you cannot rely on
3:33:28
backup right because you cannot rely on
3:33:28
backup right because you cannot rely on the internet you cannot rely that Visual
3:33:31
the internet you cannot rely that Visual
3:33:31
the internet you cannot rely that Visual Studio is gonna work correctly
3:33:33
Studio is gonna work correctly
3:33:33

3:34:00
didn't work some demos doesn't work but
3:34:00
didn't work some demos doesn't work but it's just I guess we have to be ready
3:34:02
it's just I guess we have to be ready
3:34:02
it's just I guess we have to be ready for in different ways yes well that's
3:34:05
for in different ways yes well that's

3:34:12
I'll tell the world you know when when
3:34:12
I'll tell the world you know when when you watch a build conference
3:34:15
you watch a build conference
3:34:15
you watch a build conference and stuff like that and you wants a demo
3:34:17
and stuff like that and you wants a demo
3:34:17
and stuff like that and you wants a demo a build there's somebody there's
3:34:19
a build there's somebody there's
3:34:19
a build there's somebody there's somebody behind the curtain mimicking
