funny that you do that, every time i go to the beach i do exactly the same. last time i found one in the shape of a dolphin. every time i have enough of the same size i make decorations from them with hemp rope or shells.

almost 4800 views on a video i didn't even want to make.

@Rodney Thompson i am already repeating it with AC maintanace following the same curve and sitting now as second best video on 1200 views. my new video will fix a leaking faucet and i think it has a good chance to also hit hard.

i always project my idea to chat gpt or claude and give a global idea how i want to present it, have a clear pic in my head. AI helps me to fill in the blanks and give it structure. i also have a @flagship build project with soucefiles the AI grabs data from to make it my style and then i generate a workscript that i use when im filming and a full script that i sort of follow during the edit

In my year infront of the camera i have become more comfortable, for work i also lead groups and speaking to them does not make me nervous at al. Still when i am recording in my garden and my neighbours are also in theirs i have trouble using my normal volume speaking to the camera, i guess it's still that thing in the back of your head that tells you "what do people think of me". In my normal life i don't have that anymore and dont care what you think of me. Also you need to understand how Dutch people live and how gardens are connected by just a fence and for the most part are not bigger than 5 x 7 meters.

@Kitoko Ehl Same problem here, i don't do live but sometimes it takes me 4 -6 takes to get it right.

i wish i could fully focus on long form but i see a ton of subs coming from shorts. i wish i had the interaction i have with shorts to have that with my long video's
