Bye Bye Sandy

Hurricane Sandy wasn’t too bad where I live. Some places had flooded roads and I’m sure some got water in their houses but it doesn’t compare to the destruction that some coastal cities experienced. Prayers go out to all of those on the coast who are still suffering and are without power and we pray for those as well in our own community who are still being affected.

Here’s a video from Tuesday. Only shot in the morning, didn’t really change all day.


Hurricane Sandy

huricaneSo apparently everyone is freaking out about this Hurricane Sandy thing….

Mom went to the Dollar Store and saw a ton of people she knew there and everyone asked her if she was getting ready for the storm…she was only there to pick up paper towels because we are out. haha. She said the place was completely sold out of water and some other supplies….why do people act as if the world is ending or that they are going to be trapped inside for months?

Oh well, at least they are being prepared….haha. Who knows, they could be right and it could dump 4 feet of snow on us when it collides with a winter storm or we might get a foot of water and rain.

One thing is pretty much certain though…it’s going to get windy and wet…and we will probably lose power for awhile. It’s basically a given, or so they tell us on the news/weather.

So, do you live in the northeast and are you freaking out about this Hurricane Sandy?
Let me know, I’m curious. haha.

If it gets really interesting I will do some vlogging during the storm. Ya never know what might happen.

That Bleh Feeling

Hello internet,

Have you ever felt bleh? I’m sure you have, most people do every now and then. haha.
I’ve just been feeling bleh the past few days and really haven’t felt like making videos.
It’s not that I don’t want to make videos, it’s just that I’m not “feeling” them. If you make YouTube videos, you understand.

I’ve been through this before, and I think every YouTuber has. It’s just part of the process.
If you don’t feel like making a video, don’t force it. Your lack of motivation and will shows through the camera and mic and your audience will be able to tell if you are faking it or not.

I need to get a few other things done today and then I think I will shoot a video or two.
I think the main thing is that I have other stuff that needs done and it just distracts me in the video making process.

I guess the overall thought and message of this post is to not force YouTube videos. Even if you have a schedule (which I do) it’s okay to give yourself a break. The channel will still be there a few days later.

I also just realized that I started a lot of the lines in this post with the letter “I.” Really don’t know what that means. haha.

So, what’s happening?

I know I said I wanted to keep up with these posts and do multiple a week, but I just don’t have the time and my focus is in other areas right now.
I do want to update more than every few weeks though, I’d like to keep you peeps in the loop of what’s going on here on the interwebz.

So what better to do now, than an update post? haha. So here we go!

Re:Media DesignsRe:Media Designs
I got Re:Media up and running and the business is in full swing now. You can visit my site at www.remediadesigns.com. If you want/need a website, feel free to contact me!
It’s been a lot of work to get all of the paperwork done (and there’s still some to do) but it’s nice to be able to actually do the web/graphic/video/audio design work.

My YouTube channel has made a lot of progress as well. I have partnered with SocialBlade and now have full YouTube Partner features! (It’s only exciting if you know what it means haha). Basically, I can customize my channel more and make it more professional. I have been getting a pretty good increase in traffic and the channel is really growing!

Overall
Well this is just gonna have all kinds of info. haha. I got a brand new camera! The Canon Rebel T3i. The T4i is out, but I don’t need the features it offers and I think the T3i will do great for what I want it to do. It will be great for taking pictures for website and it also records full HD (1080p). I got a lot of stuff with it as well (tripod, mic, lenses, etc).
It was definitely a pricey purchase but I definitely think it’s worth it.

The vlog channel is still going as well. You can check it out here, www.youtube.com/WiseManDrummer 

Well I think that’s about it. I plan to update this more (I feel like I say that every time). Oh well. haha.

Hopefully you enjoy reading this stuff and feel free to comment below saying whatever you’d like!
