Adrian's Journal

“Everything you can imagine is real.” – Pablo Picasso It’s a Saturday. Put the phone to Do Not Disturb mode. Time to clear the clutter and spend time with the family. No challenges to report. Not feeling competitive today. Just let my hair down and relax. Here are yesterday’s top 3 things that I am feeling grateful for. Grateful #1: Black Friday Buy Got a Bradford leather key pouch wallet for S$39, down from S$109. Thanks to the Black Friday sale at Robinsons, JEM . Grateful #2:Four Finger Dinner Spent dinner time with the family last night AT JEM’s Four Fingers . I don’t know why fried chicken wings taste so good in soy garlic sauce. Grateful #3: Youtube Video Upload Tried out another method of creating a video on a spur without wasting time planning and posing. Thanks to a question from AZ… https://youtu.be/dfyPTtwNFno What happened today? What went well? What did not work? What did I learn? How can I do it better? From the Journal of Adrian Lee –  https://adrianvideoim

End of the week. Nearly the end of the year. Time to wrap up. Wait! Not so fast. I haven’t finished my work. I had only 4 hours of sleep last night, but I’m feeling great and grateful for a smooth functioning web page. What 3 amazing challenges have I accomplished yesterday? Yesterday’s accomplishments were not planned tasks but were the struggles with little things that didn’t work. I struggled the whole night optimizing my IT Fair web page for a traffic surge coming from SITEX 2019 . New WordPress themes have given up on the Next-Previous navigation buttons in media attachment pages. I need them. I had to switch back to the Asteroid theme, but Adsense Auto Ads don’t work very well. ROI : Trickles of Adsense revenue. I struggled with trying to get my social media apps the post MOV files on my Samsung Galaxy S10 Android phone. MOV files, I discovered, cannot be read by most Android apps , like Facebook, Instagram and Adobe Premiere Rush, though they can be played back with Googl

Let’s go to the post office. Mail an item to England. Then go back to work. Tonight, visit SITEX 2019 and collect brochures . That’s my plan for today in a nutshell. Had a good 5-hour slumber last night. Thanks for the cool rainy weather. Thanks for the nice warm hash brown at breakfast. What 3 amazing things happened yesterday ? Filled up email campaign with 7 follow ups for Zhiyun Smooth 4 smartphone gimbal subscribers (98 subscribers up to date).  https://www.videolane.com/zhiyunsmooth4/  All value. No selling. ROI: Building my list of smartphone YouTube bloggers. Announced on social : “The 2-day Videography and Video Editing Course is happening on 7 and 8 December 2019… ticket sale ends 12 noon on Friday, 29 November 2019… Please share this with someone who can benefit from it…  https://www.videolane.com/courses/basic-videography/ “.

The Terminator is here. It’s taking over human video editor jobs. This software does it all. The human simply writes the script. It’s called InVideo . There’s a lot to talk about it, but let’s go to it’s main strength. It creates video content fast! Like in less than 10 minutes. You write the script or article and feed it to InVideo . InVideo  will automatically digest your script and create the video. The final edit is complete with dynamic stock images, animated text graphics and royalty-free background music. That’s not all! It can also read out, aka voice-over, your text. If you don’t like how the voice-over sounds, you can record your own voice. If you don’t like the images that it selected, you can upload your own. Hack! If you don’t like everything, you can switch to professional mode and manually edit yourself. It’s not just a dumb AI software which I initially thought it was. You must try it for yourself to understand what I mean. Click  here  to try the free ver

I want a 17% increase in mobile Adsense revenue. I want to increase mobile traffic. I want consistent fast pages across devices and platforms. So Google Adsense recommends installing the AMP WordPress Plugin to automatically create AMP versions of my pages to make them load almost instantly… https://wordpress.org/plugins/amp/ So I installed and activated it on VIDEOLANE.COM Is it any faster? Let’s test on my phone. Hmmm… it feels the same. 4 seconds to load a page. That isn’t fast. Maybe I will check again tomorrow. Feel free to leave a comment and share this post.

What's the best camera to buy for video creation? That's the MOST DANGEROUS question to ask!!! Are you sure you are ready for the best camera?
