My wedding march video on YOUTUBE

i got my new webcam in today and after a few beers decided i had to make a video lol

what i would like to do is as i learn songs or licks, video them and post them on YOUTUBE and then list them on my website and here. what i'd love to see happen is more people video taping some licks/songs to share with the cajun accordion community...or even making video's of lessons to share...wishful thinking but i think it would be great.....there is a ton of mexican accordion lessons on youtube , i dont see why we cant do the same..a webcam is cheap these days $20 to $60.

anyway...here is my beginners version of the wedding march learned from larry miller's book as best as i know how....enjoy!

Chad,
Sounds a lot better than my playing. Nice part is the closeness of the web cam where a beginner can see all movements of the fingers and bellows at the same time. Something really missing on other videos.

Hey Chad,
Were you at the Balfa Camp? We can't see your face on the cam, but I think I recognize your box. If so, you were at the jam session that night a Nic's cabin.
I wasn't aware of the MyTube site. When I have a moment, I might open an account there and post a few interesting clips that I captured at Balfa Camp. These are only 30-60 seconds clips, but some are quite magic moments.
Ciao..:-)

Thanks for posting the clip, hope other will as well. Anybody know how to save a clip from that site? Tried a bunch of stuff, but I can only get it to stream.

yw steve...nah i dont think you can save clips from the site...they are just streamers.

maz..i didnt go to balfa camp..but i'd sure like to see your videos from there.

Steve,
Try e-mailing it to yourself. Other than that, the only other way would be to record it on a camcorder, plug into your PC and burn onto a CD.

Steve,
If you want to upload videos that others can download, try using VIMEO.COM. It's free but subscribers can only upload a max of 30.00 MB per week. You CAN NOT upload someone elses videos or something taken from the web though.
