I just finished creating the first ever DJ Website Tools demo video. After a brief into, I posted a few screenshots for folks to get a feel for some of the DJEP Website Tools. I thought that it would be easy to be short and sweet. My first version of the copy was 4 and 1/2 minutes. After some major editing I got the video down to about 2 minutes and 30 seconds.
While it isn't as polished as I wanted, I do feel pretty good with actually finishing the video. It was quite a bit of work to install/configure all of the software tools, to write the copy, find the background music, record the narration, and then finally to produce it.
The audio levels were a little hot because of the lack of control that I have on my production PC. I was able to use my beloved Audio-Technica mic to record the track. The A-T sounded way better than the My Little Sony microphone I found in my electronics stash. What I really need is one of those inexpensive USB mixers. I can't really justify a high-end sound card for my home PC. My DJ PC already has one of those.
