I kind of bought a Kaleidescape. Just like movie Sequels, when you do a part two, it has to be bigger in every way. This is the biggest video I have ever made but it may also be the most boring one too. This is my Empire, this is my Two Towers.
I give my opinion on the Keleidescape platform, after owning it for about 2 months, as a whole and give my recommendations on how it can improve going forward. This is all my opinion and if you disagree, tell me what you think in the comments.
