Hey everyone, I hope you’ve all had a great week.
Today isn’t Thursday, it’s Friday. I’ll get to that in a moment. Firstly, I was joined in my studio this week by CarolineMarie, to work on and record a cover of ‘More Than Words’ By Extreme. (See below for the video)
Had fun recording and editing this, however it did take more time than anticipated. Which brings me to the second half of this post.
Thursdays video uploads are now being moved to Fridays. This is so that I have an extra day to work on any last minute recordings or lengthy editing work. Todays video definitely would not have been ready for yesterdays usual upload.
Also, some of you may know (if you followed this site from it’s conception) I had a previous YouTube channel where I uploaded Guitar lessons and various other music related videos. I spent a little while earlier in the week looking through the analytic data of that channel and came to the conclusion Music videos (like the one below) just aren’t where the views are. People seem to want to be taught something rather than watch someone they don’t know play a piece they could hear anyone play at anytime. So, I’ve decided to re-master some of my previous channels Guitar Lessons and re-upload them to the Short Lane Studios channel. I’ll make them better quality, both audio and visually. And hopefully those videos will start to attract more people and help my audience grow.
I will however still be doing Music covers and original music. But once a month rather than weekly. This also takes a lot of stress out of the job.
I think that’s all I had on my mind.
Just for clarity,
Tuesdays are Demo Videos
Fridays are Lesson Videos with the occasional Music Video.
I’m still quite active on Twitter and Instagram, so pop on over to check those out, as well as the Studios Facebook Page.
I’ll stop boring you now.
I hope you all have a pleasant weekend.
