RE: My New Animation for Steemit Explains Voting Power to Newcomers
The jetstons was definitely an inspiration. I wanted an old-fashioned feel, and I've never cartooned in that style, so I pretty much just lifted those designs haha
I love it! Everything just fell into place. Even the narration. I can't imagine the video any other way. Sad about the fast voting drain though (I saw the upvotes as a "thumbs up you did great" sort of thing so I'm bummed I can't upvote like crazy.
I'm pretty self conscious about using my own voice, but it's easier to hire myself than a voice actor. But since I don't like hearing myself talk, I edit the crap out if it so that it's barely recognizable! haha
You can upvote like crazy, if all you want to give someone is a "thumbs up you did great." But the monetary value of your votes will decrease significantly and won't have a chance to recharge. Look forward to crossing the 500 SP border so that you can scale your votes.
If you make a series of videos with your voice on, maybe you can try editing it less and less until you're confident about it. But really, I love the video and I seriously hope you make a series out of it, teaching newbies like me that way. And yeah, I dream of being able to scale down a bit but 500 is probably eons away lol.
You can already use the voting power slider without reaching 500 SP - just go to chainBB and vote from there, every button gives you the slider as an option.
Thank you for the heads up :) I'll check it out.
I wasn't planning on making this a series, but the community is responding really well, so I just might do it!
And I really think they should change the rules. Scaling should be available to everyone.
Yes please! I'll be sure to watch them. :D
I WILL be making this a series. If you have any questions, ideas, etc. just say so here
