New Video Uploaded. A Primer On Regulating A Watch.

[Mark]

The first of a few vids planned on the subject.

 

[Geo]

Well done Mark, another clear and well explained video. I'm looking forward to the next instalment. :)

[BlakeL]

Great video, can't wait to see the whole series.  Soon the mods will have to stop recommending the TimeZone courses and just link people to a playlist of your best videos.

Thanks Mark, brilliantly explained video. I'll look forward to the next installment, especially as my wife is buying me a timegrapher for my birthday.

[Don]

Another great video. Loved the macro closeups. I'm looking forward to seeing the next ones.

[SSTEEL]

Superb Mark, well done, look forward to further tutorials in this series :)

[GeorgeClarkson]

Excellent video as usual. Congrats! Looking forward to friday's video ;)

[WillFly]

Just caught this one - excellent as ever!

Mark-  I really enjoy your videos but are we seeing the effect of too much light in your workshop?  I see a lighted orb or possible ghost bellow your face in the video.  Oh, love your new workshop!

I noticed that too.  Couldn't tell if it was too much like or an issue with the sensor of the camera.

Thanks guys - appreciated.

Yes - the light bulbs got reflected into the lens, I will watch out for that next time. Didn't think it would warrant recording the whole thing over again :)

Defiantly not.  Question - Did you do the animation yourself?  I hope you use it in the future for explaining complex things.

[Mark]

Yes - I did it in Keynote which is the Mac version of Powerpoint.

Impressive... keep up the good work!

You could of just said your workshop is haunted.....  

[Rob]

The animation was a nice touch. I wouldn't have guessed it was done in Keynote.

Lol - indeed :)

I was surprised that Keynote had that as well. But it is very basic, you cannot set pivot points (so no good when I want to demonstrate the escapement). I might do it in flash next time or toonboom.

Just watched it and found it superb! Great video, great explanation and ....great workshop!

 

Thank you for another amazing video, Mark!

 

Cheers,

 

Bob

 

PS. The new workshop adds still more to the professionalism and presentation of the video enhancing its atmosphere!

I haven't used Keynote for several years now so I haven't kept up to date with new features, but it has always been a very nice app. It's really blows Powerpoint out of the water.

 

As an alternative I would recommend Apple Motion, which is a bargain at $50. It has nifty things like linked behaviours which would be handy for movement simulations like the one you did in this video.

I am actually quite impressed with Keynote - almost zero learning curve, I found it very intuitive.

 

I have motion installed, never played with it - thanks for the recommend, I will check it out.

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your new video series Mark.  Especially the fact that you're taking your time explaining everything in detail. 

Far too often, when I watch other YT Channels, the subject material is rushed, or edited so severely (for fear of loosing viewer interest), that important details are brushed over; or missed completely.  I'm glad to see you are not taking this approach with your channel. 

Thank you Mark, and keep'em coming mate :thumbsu:

[Gotwatch]

Brilliant, Mark. I never miss your videos. Thay've been very helpful and the best on the web.

Great video and as always thanks for recording. Really enjoyed it and learned some new info. Timing a watch is a really interesting subject as it is always a 50/50 decision for me to either just get it going and running reasonable, or try and improve it, with the risk of shagging it up. Can't wait for next instalment

[Mark]

Thanks guys - finishing off the second instalment. Hope to get it up soon.

[Geo]

Well done that man from Spalding! :)
