It is probably in the forum somewhere, but I have not found it, so sorry, it if is somewhere and I am asking anyway.

I was going to post a video I just made on my iPad just onto the forum. It said it was too large when I chose tne file attachment.

How are you people doing posting videos? It is between 1 1/2 minutes and 2 minutes long. I do not use drop box, Facebook, YouTube or anything like that. If I need one of those to do it, not a problem. Just thought I would post it in the critique section with some questions. I know the bowing is not perfect, I am working on that. I wanted to ask about phrasing to make it smoother. The song is “Lullaby”, and really needs nice smooth phrasing. I recorded it for my granddaughter and shared it on our special shared album, but figured I might as well ask abkut ohrasing and making it smoother, here, on the forum.

I am rather hesitant to post videos, so, not going to be too upset if it is not possible without other software, or other programs.

Thanks

Not a problem. I do not do youtube, facebook, twitter or any of that. No biggy. I will just keep working on it. Thanks.

I use Google drive (there's a storage space that comes with any gmail address) and share the link. And un-share it or destroy it after some time.
Of course it's basically the same as youtube, except I don't want to create a youtube account (I think it's equivalent to putting a video on youtube in "private mode" --> so that only people with the direct link can see it).

I have decided to not do anything that requires more passwords, usernames, email addresses, or other things online, etc. This forum and a machine knitting forum are the only online groups I do.

I did figure out how I could post it. I used my iphone photo edit thingy and broke it into three short videos with the beginning overlapping a tad with the one before it. I have it posted now. Not sure how long I will leave it up. Posting videos and photos online makes me very nervous, rightly so or wrongly. Makes me nervous. But, I have not had a lesson in a month, so, figured I might be able to get a tip or two here.

Thanks
