<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2537710, member: 17665"]Okay, let me back up a step. Your intentions might be fine, but you need to get into the trenches, so to speak, bone up on the do's & do not's of this hobby. For instance, Windex? That's a sure way to bring down the wrath of all seasoned coin collectors. Background noise is extremely distracting. I did videography for weddings many moons ago so I know a little about this, even though weddings are done on the fly. Set up a room that is quiet, have your subject matter practiced before you start shooting, edit when you make mistakes, know your subject matter and have no doubts about it. Eliminate jitter with a steady hand or a steady cam set up. "For entertainment purposes' is fine just as long as it really is entertaining and informative at the same time. You might even take a course on photography/videography first, most local colleges have these and both are usually included in the same course. A trip to your local news station might find you some friends who would be willing to give you tips. Show them some of your shoots so far and let them give you some positive feedback on how to proceed from where you are now. If done properly I'm sure most of us would enjoy it but as it is now it's just not going to work. And lastly, pick up a good video editing program, it will be worth your investment. I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
