For over a year now I have been dragging my feet and putting off starting a Youtube channel. I killed off my original Youtube profile and started a “Jamaipanese” branded one in January. Since then though I have not had much inspiration to make videos, firstly I have no idea of what to make videos of, secondly I keep wondering if anyone would even take the time to watch them, thirdly my planned desktop PC is still dead and finally I have no video editing skills. So with my sister’s now half dead, crappy laptop (I used to like it) that occasionally overheats and sends me into a Godzilla like rage.

The video was shot with my Sony DSC-H9 (sorry no HD -_-) and edited with Windows Movie maker on my sister’s laptop. It stars my boring room and serves as an experiment of sorts, I’ll shoot some videos soon and depending on the experience I might by a hi def capable video cam later this year and record my of my boring adventures in life as a video blogging or “Vlogging” extension to this blog. Hopefully by the time I make it to Japan I will be skilled enough to properly record what will no doubt be more interesting adventures there.
What can been seen in the Video that I have blogged about
- Calendar I bought ad the Japan exhibition and charity sale earlier this year
- The next two Gundam figures I will be blogging about – sneak peek
- My beaten up Jamaica flag handing from my door
- Japanese in Mangaland books I bought and forgot about
- laptop with keyboard and monitor from dead new PC
- Gundam figure collection so far from Gundam double O to Astraea
- Air Jamaica model I picked up on my trip to the states last year
- Panda poken I won from the Japansoc contest recently
- Random anime stuff from Naruto and Deathnote

Know of a good website that a video editing newbie like me can read and learn how to make better videos? please feel free to share it with me via a comment below or through my contact form.
Be sure to visit my Youtube page, add me as a friend and subscribe. The idea for this video was sparked by my blogging pal Jonas who made a video of his room with his Lumix LX3.

Today I’m 130 items behind in my RSS reader, but I managed to get to this post anyways!^^ I’m not a fan of Gundams but I’m wondering why your browser tabs are colored?
The quality is good, but it’s a little dark and I prefer widescreen video, but this is certainly good enough for vlogging.
thanks for reading and commenting.
the coloured tabs are from a plugin I use for Firefox called Colourful tabs.
yup, the quality is barely sufficent but I will use it for now until I get a dedicated video camera later on in the year
