Jurassic Journeys #3

It's my third installment of Jurassic Journeys! Overall I'm much happier with how I am improving the quality of the videos slowly but surely. I made sure to note about centering the video this time and I am now putting in some text comments to help fill in awkwarder gaps and such.

Jurassic Journeys #2

I wanted to put some written entries to parallel the Jurassic Journeys video series that I'm doing. The first post was more of a way for me to collect some quick feedback that I think I messed up on the previous videos.

So... Jurassic Journeys...


This is a weekly video series that goes over my evolution of my True King Dinosaur deck. It's a deck that I've really had a lot of fun playing with and I want to try and document how I change the deck build to shape around the meta and practice overall combos with it.

In this second video I opted out of commentary since I want to work on improving my audio quality but I also wanted to try and get the background music set. I know that in the last video the audio embarrassingly cut out in the end and so I'm trying to remedy that in this case.




Yikes...I was watching my video over again at work and I realize that it wasn't centered properly. I think it might have to do with YGOPro as an application but I should have seen that earlier. I remember that was something I sort of fixed in the first video so I should really remember to get it this time.


There's also the immediate skip since I'm playing this music through Soundcloud but I should look for a way to download music (hopefully free ones that won't get me copyrighted.) I'm also looking into picking up better headphones



There's a wait time that the opponent might very a lot with depending on how responsive they are with this. I'd like to try and fill that with some images/memes like in the 101 videos but that'll require some more video editing research. Optimally I'll be commentating over dead space like this.


On the actual Yu-Gi-Oh! related content for this I think that I'm going to be switching out my side decks to incorporate Droll & Lock Bird as I believe that it'll be much more warranted in this meta.

Jurassic Journeys #1

Alright so I finally did it. I spent the weekend to learn video editing and finally got to making a small video. Using some free software and online web apps I was able to make an intro and thumbnail. Overall I think that for just a few hours spent on it I went from 0 to well...somewhere real quick.
It was only upon after posting the video that I realized that I had many errors with the video. I'll post all of that feedback here:
- Background music didn't extend all the way to the end.
- My mic and voice volume is pretty low
