Hey everyone,
I decided to try out an unboxing video which can be found here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ie3ral16V4 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ie3ral16V4)
Some things to know:
1. This is literally my first attempt at something like this, so keep expectations low if you watch.
2. I am aware.
I've watched plenty of Youtube videos and I am aware that...
I have bad software: I used a generic video program with Movie Maker.
I have a webcam that acts up. I didn't know this until I started filming, and I had to edit.
I have bad lighting.
I did not communicate clearly at all times.
3. I was not aware.
I had a dream of doing stuff like this, so I thought why not try. When I started filming, I was not aware of some things. I was not aware that...
My computer could even doing it, so the video was partially first video and partially monkeying around.
My wife had a headache. You want to know why the video is 15 minutes with only some of the packs...my wife wasn't feeling well and didn't appreciate a production going on.
My family would break open packs at a record rate...they just wanted to open and didn't care what I was doing.
My camera would keep cutting out every 4 minutes. It made the video very disjointed, and I found it very distracting.
Overall, despite any criticism that I may receive, I had a good time. If you are willing to dedicate 15 minutes of your time to it, then I would appreciate it.
If you are interested in encouraging me to do more, then I would like to hear your feedback.
If you think I should quit, then I may but that will depend more on me than other people's feedback.

I love how forward you are and can't wait to see this later.
It's not half as bad as you made it sound. Set the bar low I guess and then you'll look good when we don't have high expectations. ;)
Very well done for your first video. The big reveal at the end was AWESOME!
