I cringe at my old videos.
When I made this video, I was just starting to develop the ânarrative voiceâ of the series. I had no idea what I was doing, and I tried to make things sound like a âbig dealâ even when they werenât.
Whatâs the point of this video? I donât know.
When I first started, I found it very embarrassing to record my voice, even if nobody else was listening. So I awkwardly put in stupid little jokes like âThank you Mr Doobâ and âWowâ and âHot hot hot slimeâ.
When it came to editing, I found these stupid little jokes even more embarrassing, so I added extra cuts, titles, and effects to them, to try to make them less weird, and to try to make fun of myself. I donât think it helped.
When I first put my face on camera, I found it very embarrassing. Editing the video was tough. It didnât help that I was wearing a stupid outfit in a public place.
I sometimes think back to certain shows that I performed in. Mainly the ones that went really badly. Sometimes it was my fault. Sometimes I was tangled up in someone elseâs mess.
Before I entered the tech world, I gave lots of âteacher talksâ. Theyâre like âtech talksâ but for teachers instead of nerds. I choked up with nerves in a few of them and it was very embarrassing.
The most disastrous lessons I taught are tattooed into the back of my skull.
This post makes me cringe. Iâll post it anyway!
