Topic: This good enough?? Songbook project related...

I was messing around with the webcam and shot this real quick to go with the songbook. I also added the patterns written out in the songs comments section.   This is only a rough vid... Only a webcam and it's cheap! I plan on using the home cam for the others as it's much clearer.  Here's the link to the chordie page as it will show in the songbook http://www.chordie.com/chord.pere/www.r … lways& Just curious if everyone thinks this will suffice. Please keep in mind that I don't know or play most of the songs I'm doing vids for and am only working out rough basic patterns for them...

Re: This good enough?? Songbook project related...

Thanks guys!! To be honest, I'm not really happy with it pesonally... sad But I keep reminding myself that I have a lot left to do and no time to really learn all the songs proper, get all the vids, or playing perfect smile Most of them I'll probably never play again anyway smile As long as it's good enough to be helpfull for beginners, That's all I'm after. Going to try to get several of these up tonite.   Just got through editing/correcting "Be Like That" by 3 Doors Down into chordpro and uploading patterns and video for it. Wonder how many I can finished before midnight or I pass out one?? smile  Oh well, Pop a top a start another wink-Pix

Hey Pix !
Fantastic  job m8! well done its just the type of instructions us learners need, big_smile everything's there

Video, strum pattern,  the best bit is the chord strum at the bottom ( like the Bm chord played with 2 strums) spot on! if you had'nt put that in i would be trying the full strum pattern there.

thanks for your time and hard work.


cheers micky cool

Great one Pix,

I bet you never realised just what you were letting yourself in for when you suggested starting a Begginner's Songbook but looking at this it will be a great reference tool for them. The next time you are in the Algarve I will buy you a pint (or two).
