Dremel® has a monthly newsletter. I am very excited to tell you that my chalkboard speech bubbles were the feature story for June. They did a great job writing a story on me, and editing my video. Big thanks go out to the people @ Dremel®!
If you would like to sign up to receive their newsletter, click here.
This is the video that appears on the Dremel® page and in their newsletter.
It may have looked like I knew what I was doing, but if you watch this blooper video, you’ll see it took a lot of takes/clips to get a video decent enough to submit to Dremel®. Just so you know, I was manning the camera myself. That is why you see me walking in and out of frame so many times. I had to keep checking to see if I was in “frame”.
I hope you enjoy watching both videos! I put together the out takes video all by myself. Look out! There may be more videos coming in the future.
I hope you are having a very safe Holiday weekend! Happy 4th to you all!

July 7, 2011 at 10:35 amI’m with Terri, a potty disclaimer needs to be added. The bloopers were a riot, you have a great sense of humor. I loved your final version, but the outtakes made me roflmao, it keeps everything so real. I too want to know what your neighbors were thinking……

July 6, 2011 at 4:54 amThe outtakes are a hoot! “Hello, anyone home?” And the rolling of the eyes, classic! But you are pretty confident in front of the camera I must say, way better than me!

July 5, 2011 at 5:00 pmI hope you won’t be offended if I tell you I was almost wetting my pants at your “blooper” video, lol?! Seriously, you need a disclaimer saying “please make a trip to the bathroom before watching”. All I could picture was your neighbors wondering what the heck you were doing…and the subtitles were killing me!
Loved the final cut…certainly makes me want to go buy a new toy…love the compact size of the Dremel! TFS!

July 4, 2011 at 10:57 pmGreat job! Your outtakes were hilarious and what patience you have. The final product was easy to understand and encouraged even me to try and make something.

July 4, 2011 at 10:08 pmYou just blow me away woman! Great job and I love the outtakes! You haven’t heard me yet trying to put a little speech on the answering machine at home or work -takes me forever and sometimes even longer ;O)).
Happy Fourth Of July!

July 4, 2011 at 4:23 pmGreat video, really, really good. I am however glad that you warned me because I am a frequent visitor to the Dremel site, and had I not known, I would have run around the house screaming that I KNEW YOU when I found it there, LOL.
By the way, the Blooper reel was HILAROUS, what a great idea!! It’s only that funny because I do the exact same thing every time I want to produce video not even a quarter as long as what you did!
Great job!!!
