Glad to hear that you would like to post a video. I'm sure that everyone at TG who has taken the time to do so believes it to have been a worthwhile endeavor. I, too, started out as technically challanged but have managed to learn enough to help put together a couple of collaborations. My advice, though, is to make your first video as simple as possible. No need for fancy graphics, titles, transitions, etc. You can learn how to do that later, and I might add that you might find it enjoyable learning how to do it. Buying a simple flip camera, or even using your ipod or iphone (if you have one), is fine for your first video. You can get external mics if you want, but again, simplicity makes sense for your first video, and I would argue that the internal mic of whatever video capturing device you are using is fine for a first video.
Once you have captured your video and have moved it to your computer, upoading it to the student reveiw channel is easy enough. I think there is a video from TGMike regarding how to do that, but if you run into trouble, speak up, and we will be happy to help out. Sometimes a phone call is the easiest means to get you through some of this, so consider that as well. You can send a private message to me, Willem, Al, or anyone really for help. Good luck.

Hi Dave,
Yes I have to agree with Jay en Willem here..I myself use a simple Samsung Digital Cam with an internal mic, wich was €150 a couple of years ago and those cams are getting cheaper all the time, really it doens't need to be fancy. However, up till now it works just fine and honestly it is enough as well!
Well hope you'll get yourself one and I'll be looking forward to your first post!

Thanks to everyone for the great advice. Now I have an idea of where to start. Getting up the nerve to actually post something is another story. However I realize that I am among friends here so it shouldn't be too traumatic ! See ya out there.
