"CD's Video Call Tips" | NECSS 2021
Added 2021-08-08 22:49:32 +0000 UTCEver amaze yourself with how disorganized you can be?
I wanted to contribute a short video to the Northeast Conference on Science & Skepticism (organized by the same folks who make the Skeptics' Guide to the Universe podcast) and it seemed so far away. Cut to... THE FIRST DAY OF IT.
I scrambled for a silly idea I could execute in [almost] 1 take and came up with this.
Luckily they were able to use it on day 2 while a tech glitch with one of the speakers needed to be worked out. A perfect implementation!
The NECSS was a virtual con and although it's just finished, if you're interested, I believe you can still buy access to a replay of the entire thing for a while - https://www.crowdcast.io/e/necss2021

That is the exact headset I use during my classes and I feel so attacked rn xD Jokes aside, I'd love to be able to share this with some of my colleagues. Would that be permissible?

2021-08-10 06:14:26 +0000 UTCI'm always amazed at how clearly and enjoyably you can convey ideas. This is so good!

2021-08-09 06:48:43 +0000 UTCI'm imagining that the very next presentation had all the problems of the captain's "before" version.

2021-08-09 00:44:24 +0000 UTCThat was weird. For me, around 3:02 the audio track of a different CD video (with the intro musical stinger) started playing at twice the volume of the Vimeo clip. Jarring. The actual video was great.

2021-08-08 23:28:20 +0000 UTCVery impressive to pull off a video like this on such short notice in one continuous take with no major stumbles. Great job!!

2021-08-08 23:20:18 +0000 UTCWow. Amazing.
2021-08-08 23:11:50 +0000 UTCAt first I was thinking "this is poor quality" but then soon realised this is Captain Disillusion and he's totally going to go somewhere with this. Wasn't disappointed
