A Vlog Every Day in August - is that even possible | Getting on the SSSVEDA train | Pillow Talk

► So, I've decided to get on the Savvy, Sexy Social A Vlog Every Day in August train, hoping it will help me take the step from how to make a video to how to make a video and get it out there quickly. The first topic was: Introduce yourself and something funny about you, and here's the result.
I tried filming with the camera in a goose neck mount, but for some reason it looks like I'm on a ship and everything's moving with the waves. And I'm still having problems with the audio sync which annoys me something fierce. Still - there is visible progress and I that is good enough for me right now.

► ABOUT ME: On Sundays I vlog in Swedish. All other uploads are in English. I'm a fat, 50-something, queer, feminist spoonie grandmother learning to KZbin from the safety of my bed. That's where I spend 95% of my time because of a crappy immune system and chronic illness. I started this channel for three reasons: to learn how to make videos and be myself on camera; to talk about things that are important to me: and to leave a visual legacy for my family.
► LET'S TALK about this video or something else, Just know that due to my illness, I am not always able to respond right away. Leave a message in the comments below, email me an [e-mail] or look me up on:

► MONEY is something we all need, yet are not supposed to talk to. My amazon links above are affiliate links, which means that I might get a gift card as a reward from Amazon once a few thousand people have bought the products. That is obviously not going to happen, but I choose to add the links as I personally appreciate it when a video description includes links to the products used or mentioned so I can look them up for myself.

thanks for sharing your story. I think you did a fantastic job.

[@ResilienceQd]

Awww, thank you, Chris, that's so kind of you!

[@oatmealcreampie3493]

Like the honesty, courage and determination to share your story!!! I feel the same about writing at this time in my life. Haven't started yet, but gearing up. lol Looking forward to watching more of your videos this month. :-)

[@ResilienceQd]

Thank you so much! Writing has always been my forte, but I am struggling with the focus these days which makes video easier to work with. As a medium it's growing on me an I am beginning to realise it's potential and possible impact. I'll pop over to see your work soon x

[@afeeser]

Welcome to KZbin!!!! Keep uploading videos and you'll learn along the way. I have some disabilities, but am able to walk with a cane (most of the time). KZbin has helped me a lot and there are some wonderful people on here to connect with.

[@ResilienceQd]

Thank you so much! I loved Instagram for the sense of community, but to my great surprise I have already felt a similar atmosphere here and not at all the scary vibes I had heard of. Loving this adventure so far and can't wait to see where this month will take me. I'll pop over to yours in a bit and see what you've got for us. Speak soon x

[@afeeser]

There are some nice groups of people, I've found. I like supporting each other and learning together. I have found many people like that on youtube.

Wow, you are going through a lot of stuff. I wish you all the best. good that you are keeping interested and passionate about the world. VEDA is such a great way to learn to make youtube videos. I know I'm learning a lot right now. I think traveling is the best. Definitely got the travel bug. Interesting first video. #SSSVEDA onward.

[@ResilienceQd]

Thank you so much for your kind words Mermaid Wise!

[@TheGrillShack]

Really enjoyed this. It shows great desire from someone who should be hindered by life but has decided that you shouldn't settle for second best. Very honest and that is what is great about it. I look forward to the rest of your SSSVEDA videos.

[@ResilienceQd]

Thank you so much!

[@saraht.cummings5800]

I love how candid this video is. Consider me subscribed! Except, I don't believe you when you say 'you don't know how to youtube,' things are looking pretty good so far. 👍

[@ResilienceQd]

Oh, wow! Sarah, thank you so much for your kind words!

[@ResilienceQd]

Any other SSSVEDA peeps out there? Or anyone still not sure whether to brave it? Come say hello! =)

[@afeeser]

I'm here. Thanks for visiting my SSSVEDA. Looking forward to more of your vlogs!

[@ChrisandersonmusicCoUk]

Hello! :) Great video, I also started a channel which is just my name and me wanting to learn how to talk to a camera!! Looking forward to seeing more

[@ResilienceQd]

Thank you Andrea and ditto! x This really adds so much to the whole experience, being able to pop in to each other's channels and see what you can learn both about them and about making videos. Love it!

[@ResilienceQd]

Thank you Chris! Nice to know I'm not alone =) Can't wait to see where this challenge will take us - it really is exciting and so far a very warm and cushy experience. Will pop over to see your latest video in a bit x

[@oatmealcreampie3493]

I got a day late start to sssveda this month, and I'm 3 videos behind, but I'm here because I still need the practice. Thanks for subscribing to my channel. I have also subscribed to your channel and I'm about to catch up on your videos.
