[3m0fr33ak]

dude thats amazing! thanks for the advice!

[zeiad1]

amaing!

[leotownsend]

i think that the inrterview shot was poorly framed

[jaapvw66]

Not only poorly framed but also not horizontal.

[AbstraktTotalVision]

[niallswand]

shut up sudowoodonumber ima box ur face until u dont have one u gay fagot. This video is awesome btw.

[Grandelbart]

Thankin you very helpful!

[piron416]

love it good tips on how to tape lines

[vivekbn]

can even put a transparent plastic sheet..on tv and draw lines with a sketch pen..coz i dont like rubberbands

[MyFJ]

kool. I have an option on the camera for this and leave it on most of the time.

[somecallmejim]

That's a handy feature to have! My only fear would be overuse. Anymore I intentionally don't use the guides that often, so I don't rely on 'em when someone thrusts a crappy camcorder in my hands for a shoot :-D. Still, it's generally a good idea to use em if you got em! :-)

Thanks for watching!

[hsaud]

I already knew this rule, but people like jim make things so simple. the rubber band thing was pretty innovative!

[somecallmejim]

Thanks so much! (And thanks for subscribing, too!)

Rubber bands huh? Never thought of that!

[somecallmejim]

Yep, there are lots of little tricks like that to make life easier :-)

Absolutely, TJ. Just send me $1800 and I'll get right on that! :-D

GREAT idea, Jim! And so short, that it is no "trouble" watching! Well done - and a great tutorial!

[somecallmejim]

Thanks so much. Hopefully I can stick to my time limits! LOL!

[Marihani]

I'm having a really hard time doing that lately too! LOL!

[Alcegi]

[somecallmejim]

[biblegirl7]

Thanks! I appreciate any advice you're willing to give. think MANY of us are learning as we go.

[somecallmejim]

Life's a learning experience, I'm happy to share what I've picked up so far :-D

[TheExchangeStudent]

Good job im sure that will be usefull for many people..

Keep it comming !

[somecallmejim]

Thanks TheExchangeStudent! I sure will! :-)

[MysterEy1]

i have often attempted this rigid discimpline. we seem to be going in opposite directions, my friend. please participate in my Longest Vlog Ever! thanks.

[somecallmejim]

I shall do as you ask. Thanks for watching! :-D

[blockster911]

Great, a tasty little brain bite as opposed to the overly lllooonnnggg videos I have been making. Thanks for the tip.

[somecallmejim]

Little bites are better sometimes, I think :-D

[MultimediaJay]

Reminds me of my Quick-O-Flicks. The difference being you follow a time constraint and I follow a number of takes constraint. =) Cool idea though. =)

[somecallmejim]

I didn't realize you had clips like this till you mentioned it. Now I've gone and watched all your uploaded videos. Good stuff! :-D

[MultimediaJay]

I originally was going to have the QFs as short videos, but I tend to talk like a professor and cover all the bases too much, so QFs are videos that were quickly put together in response to a specific topic, as opposed to a full show on something. =) Thanks for watching. Check out TechAnvil's videos too for more generic computer stuff. =)

[insaneshayne]

That WAS awesome!

[somecallmejim]

Thanks Shayne! I appreciate it!

[NotFromToronto]

Really good concept Jim. People interested in knowing more about this particular idea should look up the 'Golden Ratio' or 'Golden Section'.

[somecallmejim]

Thanks Greg! You made a great point that I totally forgot - these 1 minute videos will only scrape the tip of the iceberg on some subjects. It's a great idea to add some info in the video description to point people to where they can get more info. Thanks! :-D

[youknewmeonce]

This is a great idea, Jim. I know a lot of people will appreciate you doing this. I certainly do. Good job.

[somecallmejim]

I'm glad you enjoyed this. I do hope it can be a useful series. thanks for watching! :-)

[kbs0208]

Short, focused, great. Thanks for the tip.

[somecallmejim]

I'm glad I was able to keep it short! I have a tendency to get long-winded (as you've seen!) Peace!

[SpringDivers]

Jim, that was a great video. Good info. Thanks

[somecallmejim]

No problem :-D

[askmisscris]

very cool tip - thank you.

[somecallmejim]

No problem askmisscris. Glad you liked it! :-)
