An all new way to share the learning experience, and a final solution! MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT
🕑 Added 2017-11-17 19:19:28 +0000 UTC Because I know my unscripted videos can lack coherence, here's some text!..."BIG NEWS… again! (but seriously...)
I will no longer be in charge of course production
(i.e. editing audios).
Instead, I will 'set up shop' in Barcelona and give open public
workshops, which will be recorded! If the usership still desires
edited audios and more beautifully filmed workshops, there are
new milestones on the Patreon campaign to hire media and course
creating folk!
I will first finish the Intro to French audios, the Swahili releases (as soon as native volunteers reappear) and round up German to a sensible place (without completing it, which will also be for workshop recordings!) and everything else goes ahead as normal: the voting campaign, course commissioning etc, and the latter will be geared at the hiring of new course creators!
This means I will have little more to do with course ‘production’ than turning a camera on and off. I can’t describe the suffocating burden that releases me from after years of being trapped in these audios, or imagine the creativity that will spring from having that burden removed!
From the usership's end, this means much more video material (albeit of low quality and unedited until certain Patreon campaign milestones are reached), and also much more live experiences to share ...with various repeated workshops covering the same areas which'll make revision much more fun and interesting too!
It’ll also mean more attention directed to publication projects such as the Thinking Method guide, translated lyrics and vocabulary material!
Although this idea has slowly seeped through in response to the stress of audio editing, it also just feels like it might have been the best way of doing things all along! The workshop atmosphere can be electric, and I can't wait to share more of that on video. I also believe that it will lead to higher user numbers and increased interaction.
If you want more LT in the world, show your support for this one-in-a-million project! Hopefully the period of low-quality video production between milestones will be brief, either way ...it's over to you now!
