      It's not easy to produce videos. I also wish there were visuals, but producing that kind of video would have taken the creator over 10x the time than it took to produce this video. Some people just don't have the time and resources to make edited videos and they just have to publish what they can.

    • @FretSuccess
      @FretSuccess Місяць тому

      @GuitarQuackery this took about 6 hours to film with setup and doing the footage of Steve at the start of the new frets. Steve has so much attention to detail when working on guitars. Great to witness. Doing more than this to do more practical videos would have increased the shooting time substantially which is less of a concern for me but more that Steve's time is precious and there's only so much time we can give to these as part of the process. I wanted to make this more about Steve's story and celebrate him as a key part of Calgary's music scene rather than it being a video purely on repairing guitars and how to do it. It's hard to strike a balance of both. In the future I will try get more education content in such videos. I appreciate the constructive feedback on the videos. If I can tailor the content more to my audience then great. But also, I do make content for my own enjoyment and just the conversation with Steve alone was tremendously interesting anyway. Thanks for recognizing the effort involved in producing these videos, which is a few days including everything in post. Regardless l, thank you to all who have come to watch Steve talk and have got something from his tales.
