Shoutouts | Negative into Positive
Channel: Seth James DeMoor
Date: 2018-08-07

Shoutouts on today’s daily vlog. Oh man, sometimes technical difficulties can really throw a wrench in your day! Final Cut Pro X decided it was not going to export yesterday’s vlog correctly for me….this daily vlog issue went on and on for 2 hours. Eventually, Apple’s tech support was able to help me with Final Cut Pro X, what a crazy day. I must say, Apple's tech support or support center, has been pretty incredible over the past 2 years of producing a daily vlog. Maybe once every six months, an issue pops up with Final Cut Pro X and the publishing of a daily vlog. Thankfully the astute support center with Apple is able to help me more often than not. Once I solved the Final Cut Pro X issue, it was time to go turn a negative situation into a positive situation, by giving SHOUTOUTs to all of you, the fans of this channel. I'm continually blown away by the folks who are very dedicated to watching this channel on a consistent basis, even if the vlog does not have the best filming or the best editing. One of the shoutouts that I gave today was to 'the Daily Damien,' a gentleman and his family who has been watching the vlog for possibly years now at this point. At one point in 2017, when I was feeling like the vlog was not at the level of quality that I was hoping for, the Daily Damien had some sound advice for me that I have not forgotten. He basically said, 'sometimes it's better to have texture over polish in the daily vlog.' What did the Daily Damien mean by that? He meant that sometimes while producing a DAILY video for youtube, you WILL be tired at times, you will question the "why" behind your daily vlog effort, you will want to QUIT; however, if you can keep your eyes on the goal line, and overcome those challenges along the way, you will make it!! BUT, sometimes you will need to focus more on the texture of your daily life, instead of focusing on the polish. Don't let perfection get in the way of publishing EVERY single day. If you let perfect filming, perfect audio, and or perfect editing dictate whether or not you publish regularly, then you will never survive in the daily vlogging world. You must set perfection aside when publishing a daily vlog. You must let the texture of life shine forth when publishing a daily vlog on YouTube. Texture could mean screaming children, no fancy music, limited titles throughout your vlog, bad lighting, and very basic editing cuts in post, also known as SAVING TIME in the production of a daily vlog. Ok, so don't let perfection dictate your publishing schedule on YouTube, let the texture of life, the essence of life, shine forth. I hope you all enjoyed the shoutouts in today's vlog, just trying to turn a negative situation into a positive situation. I'm truly impressed with Matt from Lincoln Nebraska, who is a more recent viewer of the vlog, and has decided to go back into the archive of the daily vlog, to watch and comment on many of the old vlogs. He has taken it upon himself to learn more about myself and my family by digging into the 850+ daily vlog archive. Tip of the cap to you Matt for taking on this task of watching many of the old vlogs. I wonder how long it would take to watch every single old vlog? Talk about a YouTube binge session to go back and watch many of the old vlogs. That is all for now. Thanks for watching today's vlog and for being patient with me and Final Cut Pro X as we troubleshoot the issues with publishing today on YouTube. It's a good lesson in life folks, turn those negative situations into positive life experiences, on the daily.
