Announcements Nov-Dec 2009

I have some announcements about upcoming Let's learn fish videos, thought I'd post them so I could get some input:

I do have an issue which I need some viewer advice on: Should I change the name of my fish series? While I think "Let's Learn Fish" sums up my videos pretty well, its really cheesy and lame sounding. Maybe "Fish School" instead? Comments are very welcome.

Stay tuned for these upcoming fish videos:

Koi( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4R-0esMFi_k ): I'm going to take another video of the freshwater koi pond at the fish store. The original video I took was very popular, but it was recently set up: That's why there is an ill fish and the Koi aren't very impressive.

Monster tanks ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqBvWhnKjlU ): This was an extremely popular video when it came out, my first "big hit" (so to speak). I've noticed a decrease in the popularity of this video over time. I don't like this particular video: I think it's poorly filmed.
Please note: I'll have a certain amount of difficulty filming this video. The fish store has disassembled this particular monster tank (and turned it into a koi tank). I'll see if they have another monster tank up, but they might not. If I can't find a monster tank I'll just film a bunch of large/rare fish and compile them into one video.

Goldfish (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3Lw4Oiif5M and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjNR8lMqtw8): Not much to say about this, except to expect a more comprehensive goldfish video soon.

Reef tank ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bigrm3bcKOs ): Definitely a video I am excited to remake. My wonderful Panasonic DMC-FZ3 takes nice photos (3.2megapixels, yeah its getting old), but it was never designed to shoot video. The reef tank unfortunately turned out to be a blurry artifact covered mess.

Bichir ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuJYmAmfgM0 ): as one of my viewers politely pointed out, my camera cannot refocus while taking video, nor can I zoom out. Bichir are my favorite fish (sadly, I do not own one), so I'm going to try to show off how interesting they are.

Stay tuned, videos will be out soon!
