If you've ever visited YouTube you already know how easy they've made it to view videos online. No more waiting for movies to download. No server crashes or time spent counting the seconds until it actually loads.
Yes, they've made it easy for anyone to upload their visions and ideas to the web. In fact, they have an entire section devoted to "how to" do something.
Recently, I uploaded my first video to YouTube. It's titled "Piano Lessons: December Twilight."
And with this video (hopefully) I show you how to create a piano improvisation in the Key of A Major using an ostinato pattern in the left hand while your right improvises melody.
I used something called a point and shoot camcorder by Pure Digital. And for $89 from Target, I have to say that it's quite something!
I positioned the little camcorder in one of my lamps (believe it or not) and sat down and recorded my first video piano lesson.
The great thing about YouTube is that viewers can tell you what they think. If they like it they can rate it using a star system and/or leave comments -both good and bad.
The other great thing about watching videos on YouTube is that you can watch them over and over again. This is especially helpful for learning something. You can pause and even skip ahead to wherever you want.
The maximum file size allowed on YouTube is 100 MB and this gives you at least 10 minutes of video time.
