content: Hi everyone,I recently started doing youtube videos to get a nice way to enhance the content of my written blog. Since I am a little shy regarding speaking english I avoid speaking it most of the time, which is the reason why I started the first two Videos in german. But as I write my blog bilingual I thought I should also do the videos bilingual, so I decided to try making a voiceover for the first video to see how that works out.And now I am absolutely confused if that is any good... I have quite a low self esteem I thinkAnyway, I would love to hear what you think about the Videos and what I could possibly improve! If you understand german you can also take a look at those two videos, if you want, I would love to hear your oppinions about those, too!http://tinyurl.com/ysjoelfir

content: Thanks for taking the trouble to do it in English.Your English is perfectly fine. You have a German accent of course, but that's not a bad thing - what would the EEVBlog be without Dave's Strine accent?

content: I watch GreatScott! and The Post Apocalyptic Inventor, so I don't have any problems understanding, though the English audio doesn't sound as well as the German audio. It's a bit quieter and more tinny, but it may be because using a different microphone.

content: Hi everyone and thank you all so much for your nice comments!Quote from: lem_ix on February 21, 2016, 04:11:29 pmI'm working on that at the moment (well, after the written exams are done after friday!), but thanks for reminding meQuote from: lem_ix on February 21, 2016, 04:11:29 pmYay!Thanks! That helps a lot keeping up the motivationQuote from: Len on February 21, 2016, 04:54:53 pmI guess if some people like it, it was totaly worth the effort! But I guess I have to work on my technique, the actual video took me around 2 hours to film, cut, render and upload. The voiceover took 4 hours :SQuote from: Len on February 21, 2016, 04:54:53 pmThanks! That is a nice compliment which boosts my self esteem quite a bit!Quote from: Stonent on February 21, 2016, 08:07:01 pmI also watch those two too, love those videos. Regarding the sound quality - I am working on that, too. The german sound is from the mic of the cam (Panasonic HDC-SD40), which is quite remarkable if you think about the quality class of the camera, while the english voiceover was recorded with my old crusty Sennheiser PC166 headset.. I am watching many auctions with nice studio mics on ebay, but as I am a poor student, I have to save up some money first. But, as I said, I am working on that, too.
