pr tutorial

She, she, she, she.

It would sound a lot better if "she" had a name.

So far, as I am just getting into making my own blanks, I am learning from this video. Unfortunately, I don't have an assistant.

Part II?

Because I obviously don't know how long to wait before I mix in the second color nor what the consistency should be.

Video 9/10 She 10/10.

This is great thanks Looking forward to part 2.

24 seconds in the assistant was called Emma. HE spoke in a clear American acent. Even I could here this and I am hearing this through SCOTTISH ears.

Emma.. He mentioned it in the video.

I liked the vid.
It's great showing it (casting) done by someone who isn't an expert and is just "winging it" per say.. Looking forward to #2!

Good video and I hope that you are "paying" your assistant a good wage. She deserves it. Looking forward to Part II. Thanks for taking the time to "do it".

OK.
As this is constructive criticism and not a rant, having read cptcrnch post I heard either Ima or Emma at almost 6 minutes into the video. I would not have noticed it if it had not been pointed out and I knew to listen for it.

Just personalizing it makes it more enjoyable.

Great job! Very helpful and nice to watch someone mix and pour!?!?! Its easy to read about all this but many people are nervous to take a leap in fear that they are not doing it right or that they may mess something up!
One peice of constructive critisim though and someone mentioned it before. Stability of camera would stabalize picture and make it pleasurable to watch (in a motion sense). If that makes sense!
Anyway GOOD JOB!

thanks to all who have viewed this video.
as for a tripod i definately agree, unfortunately i dont have one at this time.
The assistant is Emma, apologies for not making that clear. However assistant isnt really the best word for it as you can see in the video when i thought she added too much powder she turned out to be correct lol. we have two molds and usually we just take turns who gets to use the slab and she does all her stuff on her own so maybe i should promote her to expert!:biggrin:

Great video. One question--how hot or how long to you heat the water in the cups you're using to warm the resin?

Nice Video. I am so much looking forward to part 2. Can we assume since you are still in High School, Emma is your special friend. If so you need to learn early that Women/Girls are ALWAYS RIGHT so never question them if you want life to be enjoyable, (Speaking from 27 Years of Experience).

Thanks for the video.

Zander, I wanted to thank you for this excellent video. I can't wait for part II.

BTW did I show you the completed antique brass pen that you sent me?

I'm "she" and part 2 will be up soon. It takes between 8 and 12 hours to upload videos to youtube so it'll be up in a day or two. :)

Zander, Thank you for doing this I commend you for your enthusiasm. It's better to have that video than not having anything at all. Two month down the road you'll be an expert at it.
I like to ask you for a favor, if you may get closer to your Mic. since I have sever hearing loss and I cranked both the YouTube speaker Icon and my comp. and had hard time to hear your explanations.
thank you again. Nice job.

Great effort.

A most informative video...

be careful with the cups of water, I have had grief from drips from the bottom of the cups falling into my resin :eek:

PS
Thank god, when I was in High School making videos with my girlfriend(s), mostly innocent, that there was no youtube...I am quite impressed by the resin interest at a young age...my high school hobbies of soccer, marine biology, and star wars kinda left me with an odd collection of girlfriends, but no resin fun...jealous I am
:biggrin:

not yet, some have tiny bubbles (maybe 1 or 2 per blank) and this is far less than half of the blanks with this problem but i dont want to deal with the woes that come with selling a product unprofessionally quite yet, possibly later when we have an overabundance of blanks:wink:
