the black sweater worked well as it doesn't rustle and it looked okay. do something different with my crazy hair. Future goal is to get a better camera that doesn't have such nasty lens distortion. camera shows more of my desk than I expected. There's often quite a lag for people joining so some people can have a whole minute difference between chat and video.
good point about reading the whole comment. Need to train myself to find places to pause and read. yeh, reading the chat constantly was hard on my brain. make notes typed so I don't struggle to read my hand writing move notes up high so I don't have to keep looking down. Yesterday's had gone fine (same host, same platform). Not sure what that was about, but one of the things our host mentioned was outsourcing tech in the future. It was one-person, and Zoom was giving people grief about getting into the meeting. I could probably help with that, or with pulling questions from the chat. I am no good at tech, but I have a history of answering questions in chats when I know the answers. I've seen some that were so obvious about it, and others where I couldn't tell if anyone was asking predetermined questions or not. maybe plant a couple of people in the audience with some questions I would like to answer to get the ball rolling - is shilling a thing in webinars?Ĭan probably help with theme and structure too, and can definitely help edit/shorten things.some sort of structure to what I want to say otherwise, it will be a 12-hour long event.R ranson wrote:This is what won the vote: Overview - what plants can I grow for textiles and how do I get the fibre out?
Then again, screen share could give me the freedom to drink some tea while people are looking at something other than me. But it also makes it easier on my brain as I don't have to figure out new software. This frees up a lot of processing for my computer.Ĭould I do this with me talking and not screen sharing? Maybe some props? That would greatly limit what I can do to what's in season at that time.
But I can't figure out how to share a screen on it yet.īut the youtube system saves the file to their cloud and I can download it later for editing. I tested this out and it looks easy enough. If I run this via zoom, it will probably die quickly and people get frustrated and sad. It's not built for audio or visual processing - I built it back when I was doing mostly word processing. The big problem is, my computer has a lot of trouble running zoom. I wonder if I need someone to help fish out the questions from the chat as I'm a slow reader? I'm hoping that a webinar is me sitting in front of my computer with the web camera turned on, talking about a specific topic and then people will watch and ask questions in the chat. Live webinar that can be saved (and hopefully sold to help fund the new computer - more on that later in this post) I can read feedback, it triggers other ideas I didn't think about, reread it all, keep track of idea paths and resources I find online. Mostly this thread is because my brain seems to think best in the medium that is forums. I guess part of me thought, "no one will be interested in what I have to say, I won't have to learn how to make a webinar happen". Even if it's a long time after, I can see referring to that list in the future. Pop on over and vote if you haven't already.
As a thank you to permies people for helping with my youtube channel I want to host a live webinar that would be free for you guys to join in.
