Man, I've seen his show on YouTube before and I hate him Seriously jealous of this lucky skunk. He's got a pretty good presentation style and he's very clever with everything: scripting, pacing, audio, lighting, editing, mixing. He's an example of how technology can empower a single individual (if he is getting assistance from anyone, they are not credited). All the tools needed to do this sort of thing are either cheap or free (a secondhand 1080P GoPro 3 can be had for as little as $40). Good for him - I'm glad he's putting all that know-how to good use, unlike most. Edited May 21, 2020 by Guest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I'm not sure I agree with your statement about it being cheap.;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why bother with such a pricey product when high-quality results can be had for almost nothing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His video on the Prince Ruperts' Drop and the Archers' Paradox are some of my favorites., Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
