A question on video tutorials.. and incomplete tutorials
Posted: Fri Apr 26, 2013 4:25 amI have several projects going, and I've been recording when I work on them. None of those projects are actually finished, this is 'raw' footage (unedited) of things including my mistakes at this point. I don't plan to edit these up into neat tutorials until each project is done - which might be a while. I also probably won't be able to upload longer videos to youtube until I have highspeed, which might happen sometime in late summer or fall, but the raw vids are all in clips of about 2 minutes. It'll take about two hours to load each 'raw video' clip of what I've been doing. Normally, I would just let it go until I have a finished tutorial, but...
My attempt to add wrinkles to a barbie head with a dremel-knockoff in order to make an old Jedi woman actually turned out pretty cool. It's made me wonder if I should post raw updates of works in progress, maybe grouped under a folder for that, and then delete the raw stuff when I get the project done and put the final tutorial up. Should I do this, or would it be annoying to people to see stuff that isn't done yet?
The upload time isn't as much of a concern, even if it means I'd have to post a little piece at a time when I have to go do other things anyway. I just want to know if anyone thinks I should bother.
