    Viewport video content

    Over the past month or so, I have been trying to get into the habit and practice of posting a weekly video blog style video, going over some behind the scenes stories and covering recent and future activities. This has been evolving each time and is a good way for me to practice speaking to…

  • Second Viewport

    Second Viewport

    The second episode of my new Viewport series (part of #TabletopTube) is posted now, and I am rather enjoying this series. I can certainly see the attraction for many youtubers as far as content – the production cycle is far faster/easier than much of the other formats. I collect notes and comments thru the week,…

  • Tabletop Tube – a Viewport

    Tabletop Tube – a Viewport

    Working on expanding the channel material with what the wife has dubbed “tabletop tube”, but in my mind is really just a video blog. Ideally, it is a lively conversation about our activities, both past, present and future, and perhaps some advice and stories. More than likely, I suspect it will be a ramble, at…

  • Crafty Twitch Stream

    As mentioned before, I am working to increase my live streaming presence, in many cases on Twitch.

Recently, I have been…

This sounds easy, but has been a riddle for many weeks. Most likely I am just not understanding how the pieces go together. For our…

  • Podcast formats

    For the last few years, my focus on publishing gaming sessions has been on YouTube content, slowly trying to build an audience (or at least learn how to edit and create content). Near the beginning on this journey, I dabbled a bit in podcast formats, specifically audio only versions of the game sessions. These tends…

  • Return to podcasts

    Its been a while now since I have published any podcast or video productions at all, let alone related to our gaming activities, and the itch is starting to return. Our current Kingmaker campaign would be an option, but realistically it is just too short of a series to make it worth while. Instead, my…

  • Microphone Shock Mount

    If you ended up watching the Rise of the Runelords video from yesterday or listening to the podcast, first, thanks for being my limited audience.  Second, you likely noticed a lot of background noise on the recording, mainly due to impact noise caused by movement on the table translating into the rather sensitive microphone.  In…
