It's hard to believe that in all the six years or so that this blog has been going, I am yet to publish a video blog even though those around me are doing it left, right and center.
So here's me making up for it. This video was taken at my kitchen table and it lasts just over a minute. About 20 seconds of prep went into it. If you are looking for words of wisdom, forget it. Still this does seem to be the way the world is going.
If Samuel Pepys were to be walking around with his famous diary today we'd accuse him of being a pompous old windbag.
Instead of waiting for Dickens' next installment, we'd be 'shove it up on YouTube mate.'
I have shot videos for media companies and anyone else who might be prepared to pay me a pittance for some time now. However, I try not to star in them. This one was taken on my iPhone and YouTube wants to do the shaky reduction on it. . All of which makes me wonder whatever happened to Shakin' Stevens and if he suddenly died would anyone notice. He could be dead already - we might not know. I digress.
I also forgot to do the horizontal thing. There's always next time, right.
Well the video was such fun, it was rapidly followed with Date With Dr. Diaper. This may seem like an irreverant chat, but it's actually a conceptual art project....
Ha! Kids to keep life interesting, don't they? And even if they've been quietly occupied for hours, they will need you the moment you sit down to do something. It's one of those universal laws, I think.
ReplyDeleteum yeah they are on my case, in my face - still fun usually..
