"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?

This is great
beyond the ironies in here, there's some solid advice!
Erin Flanagan
I'm always amazed at how clearly and enjoyably you can convey ideas. This is so good!
There are hidden cuts son
Keith Rogers
Clever, well done.
Galen Thurber
way better than Andrew Giuliani's tutorial
Daniel Kohl
Improvisation is the Holy Grail of performance. Prost Malzeit!

I'm imagining that the very next presentation had all the problems of the captain's "before" version.

That 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.

Ah! Using it during technical difficulties. That's great
David Macdonald
Very impressive to pull off a video like this on such short notice in one continuous take with no major stumbles. Great job!!
Wow. Amazing.
David Murphy
At 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

I came. I saw. I loved with my heart and used my head for everything else.
