Part: 1

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:16.520
Hello guys. My name is Edwin Camacho. And also my sweater. And for my senior project, I decided to make an introduction video for my YouTube channel that tells about what I want to do and what I'm planning to do in later

2
00:00:16.520 --> 00:00:32.480
months. All right. So this So this future YouTube channel I mentioned about is gaming, reaction videos, gameplay videos, montages, and sometimes rants cuz I'm just myself.

3
00:00:32.480 --> 00:00:50.920
All right. The reason why I chose to do this type of project because I want to make content on YouTube and also have a separate channel for my friends. And I also want to do live streams on Twitch and having a cool setup, but it's

4
00:00:50.920 --> 00:01:08.840
going to take like plenty of money, you know. >> [laughter] >> Oh, yes. And having a PNG Tuber. A PNG Tuber is a virtual avatar that person reacts to during live streams.

5
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:23.880
All right. 2022 all the way to the present, which is right now. All right. Around 4 years ago before I started high school, which is here. While I was playing Minecraft, I

6
00:01:23.880 --> 00:01:40.640
imagined what it would feel like as if live streaming, whether if it's I'm playing on worlds or sometimes Bed Wars or other mini games. Whether like, you know, it's it's plenty of fun.

7
00:01:41.320 --> 00:01:56.920
All right. During the freshman year, which is the start of the high school saga, I my first high school year back in September 2022, I started making friends who are not from the same school as I

8
00:01:56.920 --> 00:02:16.800
gone to, which was McMahon. Though there are other people that are from McMahon. All right. During the sophomore year, I got accepted into the Performing and Media Arts Academy PMA. I made more friends.

9
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:34.600
I also did voice acting whether if it's in a group or alone separately. And doing And during my junior year I learned a few aspects during some classes that I can remember. During drawing and painting, I improved

10
00:02:34.600 --> 00:02:51.680
on my drawing skills. During 3D modeling, I know how to make 3D stuff, models. And during theater two I did more voice acting so I can make so I could do more character voices

11
00:02:51.680 --> 00:03:10.320
that I've not done before. And during the senior year, which is this year I've improved a little more individually and with my friends. I've improved even more individually.

12
00:03:10.320 --> 00:03:27.560
I have gone forward with math to learn more with graphs and probability and statistics. And during drawing and painting two, I've improved on my drawing skills a little more. And with the coloring of course cuz

13
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:47.360
there's plenty of options open for like a lot. All right. Oh, and currently I joined the gaming club which is running by uh one of my teachers, Mr. Rosado.

14
00:03:48.920 --> 00:04:05.200
I joined the gaming club so I can improve my skills with my friends there and to prove my worth as well. Whether if it's Super Smash Bros or other games. All right.

15
00:04:05.200 --> 00:04:21.280
About my project, I started making my project by doing digital art to create my own character design plus the structure of it. I'm going to listen to this. All right.

16
00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:37.560
I've used some references and the notes I've taken to help me make my own character, which is myself best video game character. I then make poses of my character standing, talking, and the hands demonstrating to show what the character means about

17
00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:53.800
something he says. Mhm. I made a background before I go into CapCut and start editing with the character sprites I've made along with the snapshots I've I've taken on both my phone and my

18
00:04:53.800 --> 00:05:10.880
Nintendo Switch, too. During the process, I've learned other things such as editing and overlaying the picture with another picture as if adding a new layer. And also adding the filters either

19
00:05:10.880 --> 00:05:27.200
they'll fit for the transitions or for fun. The expectations I have are having future plans on gaming, streaming, YouTube, Twitch, and more. In reality though, I have plenty of things to do, like that many.

20
00:05:27.200 --> 00:05:44.800
And all of all that to happen. Like during some video recording more character sprites to make on digital art and video editing. The process. I started my project by doing the first step, drawing my character parts by

21
00:05:44.800 --> 00:06:04.360
parts. And won't be forgetting about the background. I was working on my project alone both inside and outside of school. Mhm. And what was the other step, I wonder?

22
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:22.240
Oh, yes. Taking my time in closing gaps and smoothing the edges of the outlines. And the other step I did was putting all of the parts I've drawn together into one character of mine. All right, the final two steps

23
00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:38.440
were editing then voicing in CapCut. And also adding the sound effects to my character, the images, and voicing. All right, what are the obstacles I face? Well, perhaps it might be trying to make a

24
00:06:38.440 --> 00:06:57.960
good design and also wanting to make it look good. And anything going wrong? Mhm, not really though. It's just just still wanting to make something of my video look good. I adapted those problems by slightly

25
00:06:57.960 --> 00:07:19.840
altering some of the parts and fixed them a little. As if the bug fixes. I used a bit of my own reference to make my own character and use the exact colors to fill in the lines. All right, a favorite moment of mine or

26
00:07:19.840 --> 00:07:36.560
two from the project is getting to make my own character even though it took hours and how the project turned out to be at the end. One of my friends was helpful giving ideas in case of I ran out of any.

27
00:07:36.960 --> 00:07:54.080
One of my standout memories is that I can prove more if I focus more on what I like, which could help me make something even better. What made this experience special about what path it'll go based on what I

28
00:07:54.080 --> 00:08:13.160
create. Including my ideas is of drawing things to life. All right, the skill tree. What skills have I gained so far? Mostly drawing, editing, commentary,

29
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:34.440
voicing, and especially gaming. I grew as a person so that I could change for the better for the future, while also trying to be more of myself, who is salty yet skillful. >> [laughter] >> Also, to become somewhat versatile

30
00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:51.080
despite being aggressive like video video game characters, especially protagonist, who have attacker roles. I learned that I can figure out challenging situations even alone. I can also come up with something to make a

31
00:08:51.080 --> 00:09:07.520
video, sometimes either funny or random. The project prepared me so I can make more videos, whether if it's on mobile or on console. On console, however, it needs more sub to record and stream.

32
00:09:07.520 --> 00:09:27.000
Not to mention how long it'll take to record or edit the clipped videos. Oh, yeah. This is the video I made a few months ago for my senior capstone project. Subject may change without notice.

33
00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:49.640
Um I don't know if it's going to be loud, but like it would be loud. We have it on the I'm a standby. Hello guys, and welcome to my [music] introduction video or channel trailer, I would say. The name's Ed Sweet.

34
00:09:49.640 --> 00:10:06.960
Well, Ed Sweet on console and PC and at Mania on mobile. I usually do gaming like usually almost every day. But not just that though. I also do drawing and art and having

35
00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:23.760
ideas. [music] If I do run out of ideas over time, I might as well have to come up with any idea whatsoever. Anyways, aside from that, I also like to tell you what other things I'm good at, including fighting games, which I'm

36
00:10:23.760 --> 00:10:39.960
mostly good at Super Smash Bros. I am also good at platforming games as well. And much more, etc. And I think that's all I want to say for today. Thank you guys for watching this

37
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:58.240
video, and I hope you guys have a great day up there. >> [applause] >> I'd like to thank myself and one of my friends, Julio Bermudez, for making the video look good and giving out ideas despite it being a

38
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:14.040
little rushed, but it's all right. My friend helped me by giving out ideas again, so I could go for more ideas, while I did the rest of the production of the video. All right, my future plans. After

39
00:11:14.040 --> 00:11:32.800
graduation, I plan on recording some more videos on my phone before the expansion, which is recording more videos on my console. Which stuff's going to take a while. I do also plan on making more arts so I can make more character

40
00:11:32.800 --> 00:11:50.840
or new characters and sometimes artwork. If I feel like going to college for something, I believe it can be necessary to attend. Like maybe highly necessary. I am considering attending the Holyoke

41
00:11:50.840 --> 00:12:05.800
Community College, though I am not sure if I will start in autumn or not. The project connects to my future because I want to make sure most of my ideas

42
00:12:05.800 --> 00:12:23.960
come becomes a great idea. An ideal. And also wanting to expand more of my gaming gaming skills and my art skills I can make better videos and thumbnail and also making animation.

43
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:39.160
What excites me about my next step is imagining how fun it is to edit videos even if it gets tiring, even though it's not to me. It's just It takes a little patience. And making something even funny for once.

44
00:12:39.160 --> 00:12:54.920
Like memes. My hopeful statement, I know this growth starts slow. However, it will surely be able to work things out eventually. Plus there can always be a strategy to

45
00:12:54.920 --> 00:13:18.520
plan out any time like the RPG based video games like Pokémon. And that's And that's all there is to it. >> [applause] >> Good job. Good job Edwin. That's really good. And does anybody have any questions for

46
00:13:18.520 --> 00:13:47.040
Edwin? Go ahead. So we're going to just work through the transition of this. Go ahead guys. Big loud question for Edwin. Favorite YouTuber. I mean We have more than one favorites though,
