YouTube channel is up!

Well, I finally got my YouTube channel up and running! It can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGmaLXr9KjcQ2dcBa-bM3Jg

I cannot personalize the name of the channel yet. I have to have at least 100 subscribers before I can do that. I only have 7 subscribers so far and one of those is my other YouTube account. 

So far I have done two videos with a goal of doing five videos per week. That will work out for the moment, as I have a long list of topics to cover. Once I get through that list, it will be harder and more time consuming because of additional research needed. 

In any case, I will still be producing videos. Once I start working, I may have to record multiple videos in one day and release them on different days. I've noticed a lot of YouTubers do that. 

I'm still in the learning curve where editing is concerned. I paid the money for a software license for an editing program for 3 years. 

Views are going up slowly. First day I had 7 views. Second day I had 15 views last I looked. (Hope none of those were mine. I assume YouTube does not count my own views in the total.) 

One thing I hate. One guy who claims to be leftist posted comments going against the video on the tax bill. Without watching the damn video. One of those idiots pushing MMT, which will not work unless it is adopted globally. Plus the video had only a small part having to do with taxes. Most of it was about economics. I addressed it under the tax bill because the tax bill gives massive tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations. At the expense of the working poor and middle class.

Okay, I have to get back to business. Get another application out and work on the script for the video today. I've settled for now on a pattern of writing a script to get my thoughts in order. Review the script and then record the video. I may shorten that to only making a list of key points I want to cover. I'll try that today and see how it goes. At worst, if it does not go well, I can delete that video and go back to a whole script. I still need to check on something in the video editor for scripted videos. Not entirely sure what that is but sounds good. It may let me add closed captioning, which would be good. But I tend to only use the script as a guide.
