I'm back after a bit of a break from working on other things, and I was able to go down
to Melbourne for the meetup which was fun, so sorry for the wait.
But not too long ago we reached 20000 subscribers, and since I haven't done a giveaway before,
I thought this would be a perfect time to do one and thank everyone for their kind and
continued support, and I'll explain it towards the end of the video.
But to fill up this video, what I'm gonna do is just show what I go through to get these
videos out.
Okay, so how it all starts is that I'll get an email from someone from a company asking
to do a review of a product.
Sadly I have to pick and choose sometimes because it just isn't possible to do them
all, but the rejected ones are usually many of the budget boards which are just copies
of each other, so no real harm there.
So after I receive it, it joins a group of other keyboards waiting to be done.
I try not to let it get out of hand, and at most there might be 10 waiting, meaning that
it can potentially take months to get to a keyboard video out.
For testing it differs between keyboards.
For some, you just know what it's all about, so they won't get as much testing time.
But for the others it's on and off testing which can go from a week to a couple of weeks.
I do it on and off so I get to try all the keyboards within a reasonable timeframe.
During the testing I start compiling notes and writing my script.
After doing this for a while, it's kinda easy to go through the same kind of structure,
and recognise some areas that need pointing out.
And then I go to film.
So I pack everything back together as best as I can.
Sometimes I do lose things which is annoying, but I do mention it.
Most of my filming is done between these 2 small clean spaces on my workbenches.
But I also do a lot of work on there, so I have to clean up for the videos everytime.
I've always liked the casual feel and look of filming here with all the mess around,
and I for one find it pretty relaxing and casual.
And then sometimes I film in other places around the workshop, with some just out the
back for a bit of variation.
And then the rest at my computer.
The camera I'm using is just a Canon 600D which I've had for years, and half the shots
are just with the 18-55mm kit lens, and then the rest with this cheap 50mm prime lens.
Nothing special at all, and I do hope to upgrade some day.
After the first filming session, I finalise the script and record the audio.
I just go through it in one big go and then adjust the audio on Adobe Audition, and then
I cut it up in Premiere Pro which is the video editing software I use.
And then I just go ahead and edit as much as possible.
But there's always about 25% of the audio where I don't have video for it, so then
I have to film all those shots in the following shoot.
The final thing I usually shoot is the sound test.
I've tried to keep it somewhat standard.
Sound tests are just to give the viewer an idea of how the keyboard sounds.
Every little thing can change how a keyboard sounds.
The case, plate, keycaps all come into play, but also the surface you're typing on, so
I've tried to do it in the same place with the same conditions.
And I always get questions about the green thing that I put on my microphone.
It's just a candle, and all it's doing is stopping it from falling over, so yeh.
I also use it to lean the keyboards on, so it's legitimately important to my setup.
Then all those shots get put in, then I do all the annotations, and music and stuff.
Finally after all the main work is done, I export in 1080p with quite a low bitrate actually,
because when I go to YouTube to upload, my 1gb files usually take like 3 hours to upload.
And no, for the very few that are asking for 4k.
I'd have to get a new camera, lenses, new computer, and my internet is way too slow
anyway, so yeh, not anytime soon.
And that's pretty much it.
I'd say for a pretty standard review, depending on the board, there can be a week to several
weeks of on and off use, and during that period, I will compile a script.
Then there will be 2-3 video shooting sessions which are on different days.
With again 2-3 days of editing.
So it takes a bit of time, but not an excessive amount, like how some people test their keyboards
for much longer, but it's a compromise that I have to make.
Alright so now to the giveaway.
I'm gonna do it through Gleam.io to make it easier for me, and all you have to do is
be a subscriber to the YouTube channel.
If you're already a subscriber, you can just go through the link, and it will work
it out.
There won't be any extra entries for other stuff like liking the Facebook page, or following
me on Instagram, so it makes it fair to everyone on YouTube, but I'd love for any support
on those platforms as well.
This is worldwide, so anyone can enter.
Just don't make a heap of accounts, because I'll reject your entries.
I'll giveaway 2 keyboards.
First prize will be this iKBC C104 provided by Mwave.com.au, but I'll give the case
a bit of a paint job to match the channel colour scheme.
It has Cherry MX Brown's, and is a real solid board for the price, much like the other
iKBC boards.
And the second prize will be this Drevo Tyrfing, which is a simple budget board.
It looks pretty nice, and comes with Outemu Red switches.
Whenever the next giveaway is, I'll try prepare a bit better with some cooler stuff.
And as for all my other boards, I've given a few away, but most are needed for reference.
I'll let this run until the 18th of this month, which is a Monday, so everyone gets
a chance.
I'll comment back on this video with the winners and pin it.
And as always with giveaways, unfortunately not everyone can be a winner, so yeh my apologies.
And that's pretty much it.
I hope to do much more, and vary it up a bit with some more builds and custom stuff.
But just a huge thanks to everyone for the kind and continued support.
