Watch me practice online!
on: May 05, 2011, 04:19:09 PM
I think this is the right forum? Maybe Miscellaneous would be good, but I don't want to post it in both. Anyway, I'm streaming my practice online 40 minutes from posting this thread, and will go for two hours. I'm going to update my signature constantly telling when my next sessions will be, along with the link to follow, if any of you are interested.

I think this will help me practice more efficiently, because I'll have the knowledge that people are watching me and I shouldn't just mess around.

Here's the link to watch: https://www.ustream.tv/channel/oskpianopractice

I've practiced piano on ustream before! I'll post here when I'm live if anybody is interested. Working on my "NE Ab" for Project 27 and feeling around some more Godowsky studies.

Oh cool, I've always wondered what other people's practise sessions were like! :)

But I would never record *myself* practising piano. I would just mess up every single note and it wouldn't be a good practise session at all! Piano+camera+me don't mix so well

Thanks for watching today, guys! Talk about keeping me accountable. There's no other way I would have practiced for 5 hours today. Remember, if you ever want to see any more of me practicing live, just check my signature, for I will constantly update it of my next practice sessions.

That's actually a reason to record yourself more. Everyone have that problem in the start, so don't worry about it :)

This is cool. I do like (greatly prefer) the comforts of solitude and anonymity, though. There have been a couple times I was carrying a recorder in my pocket with a bunch of other stuff and being pressed on it began recording in my pocket unawares. This happened in the morning last December 7th, 2010, and I still have the files. Points to the first person to guess the piece.  8)

That U-Stream is a great thing it seems. I just opened an account.

How did you set that up?  Do you have to pay for that?  I wonder how they can stay in business if it's free.

That's easy to set up. Just like youtube or facebook. I downloaded their application "ustream producer" where you just have to click a few buttons, adjust your mic and webcam and off it goes.
They're ad-supported.
