Well, There it is!
This video provides a very visually stimulating overview of PostCrossing, and what it is all about. I discuss the origins of the program, and how it came to be, how it works, and a little bit about my own experience with it.

So, How’d I do it?
To created my video, I recorded a very long video of myself talking about this subject on my smartphone, and then edited it down to be within time (two minutes) on ClipChamp. This took a pretty long time, as I had a lot of cutting that needed to be done where I had either paused naturally, or looked away to refrence my outline. After that main section was edited, I added in some transitions to title/end cards that I made on Canva, and was able to integrate some more visuals of both the PostCrossing website, and other photos.
I chose to upload it on YouTube, because I was more familiar with the platform. I decided to mark it as “unlisted”, just so that people with the link could access it. This is just what I usually do for school video assignments, because otherwise I would have a very odd channel out there. Though, this would maybe be the one thing I actually publish publicly, because I am pretty happy with how it came out in the end.
