Challenge: I Am Showing You Mine But Will You Show Me Yours?
Hi all, thanks for stopping by.
I’ve got an idea for a bit of a challenge and want to invite you all to take part….
The challenge is to make a video and post it on your blogs. It can be of anything you feel comfortable doing and if you’ve never created a video then this is your push to do so.
We’re all able to carry out certain tasks on our PC’s so why not record yourself doing one of them?
I’m no Spielberg but I have created a few videos and how I got started was by recording myself setting up an auto reply message on Outlook Express. It’s a simple video, which is displayed lower in the post, and it has been my most popular with over 2,900 views. It was created with free software so all it cost me was my time, so there’s no excuse!
Here’s a few ideas you could start with:
Cloaking affiliate links
Adding an image to a page or blog
Creating a payment button
Creating an Image
Creating an eBook cover
Creating a Hyperlink
Branding an eBook
How to create an ebook
An HTML lesson
Creating an auto reply message
Gmail tips
Twitter tips
Facebook tips
Adding something to your blogs
There are endless topics that you could cover but for now just pick one that you’re comfortable doing. Maybe something you do day in day out. Maybe you have a skill that some of us don’t, in which case show us it. You never know it could lead to another string in your bow.
By all means visit my YouTube Channel and get some ideas from the videos I’ve created. Maybe you think I made mistakes in them or could have explained something better, if so make the same videos and correct my mistakes. Don’t let your voice put you off, you can tell that I haven’t had any elocution lessons cor I even have to remember my T’s and H’s 
The only rules are:
- It must be suitable for everyone to watch.
- It must be created from today onwards.
Please Note: I will check all videos and if any were created before today they will not be allowed in the challenge.
You have until Monday 22nd August to create your video and submit your post details to me with the URL and a sentence or two about the post/video. I will then write a post on Tuesday 23rd and I will link to every post that is taking part.
Now think about this: As I said we all have skills in different fields so this could highlight your skills to people that need them. Now imagine an additional income stream created from your skill. Never mind Fiverr this could link you to each other directly and solve any outsourcing problems. You never know we may even build our own little team of contacts.
If you’ve never done this before don’t worry. I’ve placed a video below showing you how to upload to YouTube and then how to place the videos on your blogs.
There is free software available for creating your videos:
I got started using Camstudio and it’s really easy to use as I detail in a video in a previous post: The software I use to create these videos
Ok as promised at the start of the post: I’m showing you my first ever video:
I didn’t do too bad……did I? So come on lets get filming, yeah? Any job you’re comfortable doing will be spot on, I promise you
Here’s how you upload them to YouTube and then onto your blogs, please excuse my coughs:
So are you up for the challenge?
Would your friends be up for it?
Will you help me get the word out about the challenge?
As an added bonus the following week, 30th August, I’ll create another video showing everyone my top ten traffic sources for the period of the challenge. Meaning those that help me spread the word of the challenge have a very good chance of being mentioned, and linked to, on the 30th as well.
Will you be in that top ten?
So what do you think, are you up for the challenge?
Until next time, shoot to thrill

Yes I will try and stay away from the water sports but you know when you have a had a few beers and the sun is shining the confidence kicks in and all heel can break loose!
Will let you know when I have got it up. Also I am going to allow people to guest post on my blog as I have had one person request it and you also kindly let me do one for you in the past
Thanks again for the neat comp idea

Hey Barry
Cool comp, and a fab idea!
I have done so many videos lately it’s unreal, I even dream about recording them now, but cant complain cos I love making them.
Powerpoint is by far my fav way at the moment, but I tend to do a bit of both… slides and tutorial types.
Your video about email automation took me back to my old ebay days before I used MyDD or SmartDD I can’t remember, funny how videos just seem to attract traffic as if by “magic” lol.
I will of course try my best to do a video and join in DA FUN!
Good luck everyone, look forward to watching all the video masterpieces!!!

Hiya Sally,
I can well imagine you’re dreaming videos with the amount you’re putting together for the Learn With Sally coaching, which is absolutely fantastic by the way. Please thank my lucky mascot for me
I don’t have Powerpoint on my PC
but will try and get started using Open Office, where there’s a will there’s a way… fingers crossed 
It’s funny you say about before MyDD Sally. I used to use Outlook Express for all my deliveries but with the PC checking for emails every 5 minutes it slowed the PC down and took a large chunk out of my productive time which was why I bought MyDD, but the PC never picked up speed again
so a new one it was 
I also find it strange that the auto reply video is my most popular. I’ll have to create one for gmail now that i’m using it
I look forward to your entry Sally
Catch up soon
Respect and Regards,
Barry

And very clever on the traffic tactic. I think you will take this one out without a drama.

Hi Barry,
Great Challenge….
I have no experience with video creation but that does not mean I don’t want to learn. After watching and learning from so many video’s I would love to give it a go. I have downloaded the CamStudio Software some time ago but that is about all that I have done. Now this is a very embarrassing ‘blonde moment’ or should that be ‘grey moment’ but what equipment do I need e.g. webcam, headphones etc. I had a quick look on Ebay but that left me completely confused with LED, Pixel, Mega etc.
I would love to give the challenge a go but with not know what equipment, not knowing how to use it, I think I might have to pass up on this challenge. I look forward to viewing everyone else’s videos and leaving comments etc.
Hopefully you will repeat this challenge again in the future and I will have recovered from my ‘moments’.
Talk soon, take care.
Robyn
Robyn recently posted..You Can Be a Success
Twitter: barry_wells
Hi Robyn,
ha ha Blonde moment. Not at all Robyn, we never know what we need until it’s explained my friend. I was exactly the same and I am blonde, which is part of the reason I cut it so short
I use a Logitech headset Robyn. I bought one set from eBay for about £30 but then had to buy a new set which I got from the local supermarket for £17.99. If you have a microphone with your PC give it a try, if not visit your local store and grab a USB headset with Mic, Logitech is a good make but there are many others as well.
Once you have the headset (or Mic) plug it in before opening your screen capture software and you should be good to go Robyn. If you have any problems email me and I’ll do what i can to help
Please, please, please give it a go Robyn. Once you get the first one out of the way you’ll see other things you could create videos for.
Catch up soon Robyn,
Take care,

Hi Barry,
Phew! Some title you’ve there! I can open the curtains again
Well, you’ve quite the challenge going, for me anyway. I am not an amateur, I am a complete ‘have no ideaer’, (I’ve not even got a youtube account. The only thing I’ve ever had to do with on screen videos is watch them. And must say, have learnt plenty from them.
Monday ah, you really are keen to keep us on our toes. I’m going to have to lift the console ban set for this weekend and do some learning! But, you did ask so nicely, I’ll give it a go. The next thing, What can I show people .. ‘how to …’? Cold beer time
Robyn, you’re not the only one, I too am going to ask – I think my computer has a mic. if it does, do I need to get this headset you’re mentioned there?
Barry, if your ears are burning this weekend, it’s coming from me!
Take Care
Cheers

Hi Julie,
Glad you liked the title of the post. Fancy drawing the curtains, what kind of picture do you have of me
Julie you’re exactly the type of person I want to take part in this challenge. Having never done this before this really is your big nudge to get started and once you’ve got the first one done you’ll start making them all the more.
There’s a link in the post to a previous post that will show you how to get started with CamStudio. I would give it a quick try with your built in mic’ and if it works then plan your video. If the mic doesn’t work then grab a USB headset, but try your mic first Julie.
Make it around something you do day in day out and you’ll be more confident. If you get tongue tied make some bullet points for the items to be covered and it’ll help keep you on track.
If you get stuck at all Julie give me a shout and I’ll do what i can to help.
After telling everyone online how I fear my wife, and then telling the wife I said it, my ears are constantly burning. Especially when the wife has friends round
Best of luck Julie, remember I’m here if you need me

Hi Barry,
Great idea. It’s a big challenge for me to create a tutorial video. I’m not sure I can do it in within the time that you allow. My time is almost all taken with other pressing things.
Instead of a screen shot video I may do a live video using a camera. I hope that would be considered a valid contribution. Instead of lecturing I may attempt do create something entertaining.
Let me know if that’s OK. I still have some technical issues to solve but if that’s successful I should be able to create something.
Take Care,

Hi Barry and anybody reading this,
Since the wee hours of yesterday and today I have been unable to upload a new video to YouTube.
This has happened before and I think that they are doing some work and no new videos are being temporarily accepted. The upload goes to the end but then there is no response from YouTube and the video is not there.
If anybody has uploaded new videos within the last 12 hours (It’s 5:00 p.m. Pacific time, Sunday, August 21, 2011) Please let me know in comments here or on my blog. I’ve tried 5 times and wasted a lot of time.
Aside from this temporary problem I think that YouTube and videos in general are wort working with.

Excellent work Nick, please make more videos and thank you for stepping up to the challenge.
You should be very proud of yourself mate, job well done
Respect and Regards,
Barry
Hi Barry,
I read all the comments here and enjoyed everyone, I didn’t know there was so many people that hadn’t created a video yet and it was really good to read here that they weren’t going to let anything stand in there way.
Barry! as you know I was late at finding out about your challenge, but when I seen it a few days ago, I said right, I know my way around camtasia a bit, lol…and after reading these comments…I knew some people would benefit form being shown a few ways to use the tools from within side it.
Anyways Barry, I see Kathy dropped her link in — so I hope it’s OK to drop mine in too…I think I read before on your blog you don’t like people setting links into the comments, so if you want to remove it that’s fine by me.

Hi Eamon,
I was also amazed at the amount of people that had never created a video and were willing to take the challenge. I’ll be posting about it later today and there are some real crackers in there from 1st timers
Yes sorry about not getting in touch properly. I was rushing Eamon and sent tweets rather than emails, sorry about that.
No problem adding the link here Eamon, it’s only the affi links I block
yours are always welcome Eamon as I know you’re proper mate.
Your videos are outstanding Eamon, please make more
Catch up soon Eamon,

Hi Barry,
The vids completed and up on the blog, youtube and facebook. Yahooo!
It’s not Camtasia, I’m afraid I need a little longer to master that but it is a video, it is mine and I made it today (mega chuffed)
Thanks for the push
Talk soon

I have never done this type of videos, Barry. I only use screenshots. It is my passion to great step-by-step tutorials using screenshots. But I am really interested in a different type of videos. I just want to know how to create them. I have seen one on Dee Ann blog on this link:
http://deeannrice.com/google-plus/
I really love that video. I wonder what program the creator used… Do you have any idea?

Hi Mouh,
Dee Ann uses Camtasia to create her videos. Its a great tool to have in the tool box but it’s exspensive, mind you, you do get what you pay for
There’s a link to a video in the post that shows you how to use some free software from Camstudio.
I will accept late entries Mouh, but will add them to the post when I have a few built up
Hope you can join in my friend

I finally just sat down and upload my video to YouTube and got it posted on my blog.
The link is http://marketingwithrick.com/1154/affiliate-marketing-lesson-why-and-how-to-cloak-affiliate-links
The quality of the video is below par but I did want to get it published for the challenge.
Thanks again for the challenge.

Hi Barry,
I’m done a few hours later due to the video upload problems but I figured out how to do it another way.
I hope that you’ll still enter me into the contest. It’s up to you. Ether way it helped me to do more than I’d have done were it not for your challenge.
I have posted 3 videos so at least one should be to most people’s liking. They are 1) about Android, 2) about iPhone 5, 3) about beer.
The link to the post where you find them:

Hey Barry,
Sorry about the challenge Barry, as you know I’m having a tough time with my dad’s health right now. Very much looking forward on learning how to do this.
I’m guessing when I get into Sally Neill’s video learning section I will be learning this but I got to tell you, it will be great learning form Sally and learning from Barry. You’re the best.
Keep on keeping on,

Hi Terry,
No worries mate, I know your situation and hope that it changes for the better very soon. I know what it was like when my mum first became ill, so i wish you and your family all the best my friend.
Yes Sally has a great video section. Just look at my latest video for confirmation of that. I was only able to create it due to Sally and Eamons lessons on camtasia.
Awww, thanks for the compliment Terry, I do my best mate
You take care Terry,
Catch up soon mate,
