How do I get the title to show at the top of the video?
There's strength in numbers, so I decided to use the audio track of "Fly Me to the Moon" that I recorded a few years ago with my seniors uke group, The CC Strummers, on which I'm playing bass uke. I included a generic photo of the group, I'm in the upper left with a red circle. (I see the title happens automatically here.)
This was great, and I enjoyed listening to it, although strictly the rules of the game are that the video needs to be recorded this week specifically for the theme. So - maybe someone who's been around longer can correct me if this is the wrong thing to do...
This was great, and I enjoyed listening to it, although strictly the rules of the game are that the video needs to be recorded this week specifically for the theme. So - maybe someone who's been around longer can correct me if this is the wrong thing to do - but in fairness to people who have made their recordings this week, I probably shouldn't add it to the playlist.
Still, you should all listen to it anyway! I haven't been to a uke group, though I gather there's a couple fairly near me that I hope I can go along to once we're allowed out again, especially if this is the sort of fun they have.
i went looking for the general instruction that says vids have to be new and recorded for the season... and couldn't find it! but it's definitely been a given ever since i started on the seasons, and many hosts mention this requirement in their intro. back in the day we often used to have a bonus playlist, and if people had an old vid that fitted the week, they could post it and it would be added to the bonus playlist. i've had people not tick key requirements that i've asked for when i've hosted, things to do with the theme and what songs fit it (and indeed have mucked this sort of thing up myself in other seasons when just participating!), and most of the time as host i've just added the vid to the season playlist anyway, but not counted the vid in my picks for end of season prizes. the other thing we can do if we realise we've mucked up and a song doesn't fit, or we have an old vid that fits that we'd like to share again, is bung it on the island of misfit seasonistas thread. do you have a link, mike, to that main thread where it says a recording could be from anytime?I read the main thread for Seasons and saw that a recording could be from anytime, that's why I decided to post that one.
Hi folks! I've tossed and turned trying to come up with the right thing for this season. My first choice got scooped up on day 1, but I may record it, yet. Here is choice number two. I had a stab at the spacey intro, but made a hash of it, so the beginning of this piece is quite abrupt, due to cutting room floor issues. A bit of a rough effort, if I'm honest, oh well.
