@SoDaptor Thanks so much for the suggestions. My sister has a chromebook and although you can't edit anything on it, the quality is by far superior compared to this webcam I have. I can upload straight to youtube. I'm going to re-record tomorrow.

@Lauriellen, thanks so much for backing me! I really like your reward tiers suggestion so I tried to move the rewards around so that I can add the $5. As it stood I had $1, $10 and $25. When I added the $5, I swapped the $10 reward with the $25 and made a new reward for the $25 however since the $10 reward was already selected by one backer, I can't edit it. Same for the $5. I'm unsure of what to do to amend it.

Well, I'm the $5 backer. So I canceled my pledge for now so you can change the $5 pledge to be different from the $10 pledge. How about if you just had the ramen tip and a recipe with no picture? Or ... oooh you could have the picture of just the ramen dish/ingredients but not you in it at that level. Let me know when you do whatever you need to do and I will pledge again. I feel like this is part of ramen adventures.

Thanks so much for that, I've gone in and changed a few things. The $10 backer still remains so I've just added another $10 tier and marked the previous as sold out. I've sent you your tip as well

The quality of the video doesn't help you, and neither does the sound. It also doesn't help that you chop the top of you head off with it for the duration of the video. I liked the ending, though, as more of the real you came to the fore.

I watched several of your videos on your YouTube site, after watching the Scottish joke one. Nice delivery of the punchline on that one.

I also liked the Mosquito video from your YouTube site.

You're attractive, and have a sense of humor. Both the project video and the Ramen are beside the point. Make your videos entertaining, and your audience will both grow and be forgiving of the poor quality of the video and sound.

I'm not sure what to call you - an entertainment chef, perhaps.

@Charles, Thanks for the kind words and the insight. I'm definitely animated which makes for a watchable video however it will take a lot of practice when combining that with a pot of boiling water. I imagine my first video will be pretty an interesting watch.

My sister was nice enough to lend me her chromebook for the day so I've re-shot the soy sauce video and uploaded it. I'm not great with the confining frames of a webcam so in parts the top of my head gets cut off in parts because I move around so much but it comes right back. The audio is by far much better than what it was.

Is this any better?

The quality of your video is worse. When you move, you become a blur.

Really?! Are you sure that's the video and not just my erratic movements, I've genuinely been told that I'm squirrel like. I thought the sound quality was much better. That horrible buzz is gone. I'll give it another go tomorrow and try to be more still. I'm just under 3 weeks until my campaign ends so I really need to shake a tail feather.

When you're not moving, the video quality is better. The end of the new one isn't as good as the end of the last one. Your laugh was more energetic in that one.

That you are animated is a good thing. But, in the new video, you blur when you move. Blue, blur, lots and lots of blur.

I don't use web cameras, but the lighting may be playing a factor. Better lighting may yield less blurring. Not sure, though. Can you not see the blurring on your end, Angela?

Your project page makes little use of still images of either food or you. How about some photos of you eating or cooking meals? It will increase the visual impact of your page.
