  • LIFE OVERVIEW DURING/AFTER EXAMINATION FEATURING @SHAMZY

    https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/cginhdyy
    Hello everyone, trust I meet you all doing good?

    Its been two weeks since the completion of my examination for the fourth year in my course of study (Electrical/Electronic Engineering). Life during the fourth year hasn’t been much of what I expected. Lot of unexpected incidents had taken place and what was ‘the expected’ never occurred. The recently concluded examination came off as a success overall for me, but in between were several challenges.

    In my video today, I and my friend/colleague @shamzy who I recently invited to become a member of the Hive community, spared some time to discuss about our experiences and expectations from our recently concluded examination. It was more of an interview-like session and glad my friend Shamzy was really confident enough to expressively deliver his words to my viewer, being his first time ever getting on camera.

    In summary, what our discission entailed are; why we are studying the course Electrical/Electronic Engineering, what our expectations are from studying the course, how confident we were in achieving an excellent grade before sitting for the examination, what our expectations were before and after sitting for our recently concluded examination, what we would be using our two (2) weeks holiday to achieve, and lastly what our plans are moving on into our final year, which is HND2.

    Below are some highlights from our discussion session;

    • Studying Electrical/Electronic Engineering is something I would call a miracle because I wanted to became a Farmer. – Shamzy

    • I’ve had a thing for Electrical Engineering since I was young that’s why my parent advised me to study Electrical/Electronic Engineering in the Higher institution. – K-banti

    • I’m glad I quit my dream of becoming a Farmer to become and Engineer who can solve the world’s problem with the use of Technology. – Shamzy

    • I wasn’t scared to sit for the examination despite knowing I wasn’t fully prepared. – K-banti

    • I studied hard and did a lot of overnight readings in order to have an A in all my courses. – Shamzy

    • I will use the first one week of my holiday to rest in order to get refreshed and then I’d work more on creating content on Hive and do a lot more of researches. – Shamzy

    • I will mostly likely be studying Power options during my HND2 because I have been exposed more to the power related studies and I also underwent my Industrial training (IT) at the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN). – Shamzy

    • I don’t shy away from what is difficult, it’s just that I have had a thing for Electronics from way back. – K-banti

    • IAAC for the 27th of July 2021 | Long Time No See.

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/hcuntrbe

      Hello everyone, trust I meet y'all doing good?

      It's with utmost pleasure I write this blog post after three (3) weeks straight of no content creation. Today marks the completion of my examination which was the reason why I haven’t had time to spare to create Hive contents. I’m grateful to God Almighty for success of the examination and also for the successful completion of another year in my course of study.

      I'm eager to resume posting on Hive, but then I’d need to do that on a gradual pace due to the fact that I still need to rest my body and brain from the stress it underwent during the course of the examination. Can’t wait to pick up from where I left off and catch up with things have missed out. Looking forward to doing Hive full-time once again.

    • What Does My Content Creation Future Holds With Hive In The Next One Month?

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/lxxirzxm
      Hello everyone, trust I meet you all doing good?

      It was crucial and important that I remind myself to get prepared for a tideous month ahead, so I strategized how to mange my activities here on Hive alongside with my Academics. I had initially filmed this vlog three weekends back and planned on posting it the weekend after. But after going through the week I realized, there was absolutely no way I was going to be able to achieve all I've planned with so much school activities lines up with few weeks, so I refrained from posting it. But today, I just woke up feeling the urge of posting the video. I've been sacred of posting this vlog because I knew I was going to fail in achieving my plans, but I don't feel that way anymore. Seem I woke up today feeling great 🙂

      Initially, I had plans to keep grinding hard with Hive during this period while I'm in school so my blog doesn't become inactive like it did the previous time I was in school. The previous time, I had to completely ignore my Hive blog because I resumed back to school and there was a lot of rush in activities. This is because the academic session in recent times hasn't really operated smoothly as a result of the corona outbreak which caused us to go on a long break and also the ASUP strike that occurred which put a stop to lectures. So when we're asked to resume back to school for lectures, we will be left with very little time left to round up with the semester and there would always be a rush to cover up all activities that was planned for a 13 weeks semester within 2-4 weeks. So it's always hard to multitask during this period.

      That's why most times I end up ghosting on Hive and all focus are channeled to my Academics, not because I want to, but because school activities are just too much that it gets overwhelming and I get consumed by it. But this time around I tried to change the narrative which still ended up being impossible. Although this time around I still find myself being able to get active on Hive during the weekends. I try to create one or two contents during the weekend and interact with few individuals in order not to go dead and retain a little activeness on my blog.

      My wildest dream of being an active blogging student (i.e. actively blogging while in school 😜) are still yet to be fulfilled. I won't be posting at least once daily as previously stated in the video, my plans on getting more active with the #hivenaija community would still slowly manifest. And every other days I find the space and energy to make a post, I'd most definitely do. Lastly, shutout to @starstrings01, @josediccus and several other Nigerian hivers who are students. You all deserve to be praised for your effort and ability to maintain your Hive activities with Academics.

    • IAAC for the 1st of July 2021 | Anxious Times Are Kicking In!

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/kvdzvnkj

      Hello everyone, trust I meet y'all doing good? Happy New Month.

      It has been an hectic week for me so far, from one class to the other, Assessments (Test) back to back, writing of report for exercises carried out, and lot more. On top of it all, Exams starts in a week time. The conclusion of the semester has been a big rush. We were given just few weeks to round up so we can take our exams.

      It's that period of the semester again when I do get anxious. I've always never found myself well prepared before an exam is being announced. Oh! Well, I've still got about a week till exams begin, so I'm just gonna use the time left to get prepared. But I'm filled with worries on how to go about the whole study process, how I'm gonna read a material that was meant to be treated for three months in just a week? I think I'm overwhelmed.

    • IAAC for the 26th of June 2021 | A Lot More To Work On

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/rbnkccjj

      Hello everyone, trust I meet y'all doing good? Haply weekend to

      Today, I failed at achieving what my set goal for the day was. I had planned to use my weekend to create some contents I had in mind and also to visit my school campus to study and finish up a group assignment. But unfortunately, I was lazy and kept procrastinating the time until the day ended and I couldn't get any of it done.

      Now I've got a lot more to work to do on myself. I need to work on getting more disciplined in order to get rid of laziness and procrastination. I hope it happens fast 🙂.

    • IAAC for the 25th of June 2021 | A Marathon, Not A Sprint

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/vqvlrkqh

      Hello everyone, trust I meet y'all doing good?

      After a tasking overnight preparation for my first test during the week, I have come to realize that success can't be achieved overnight. That's why I've chosen to adjust my reading schedule to something more defining with an hope of guaranteed success. Basically, same applies to life, it takes gradual process until success is achieved.

      The week was an awesome one, and I've sacrificed a little more time into study during the week. So , I'm looking forward to an exciting weekend and the hope of maximizing the weekend to create some contents.

    • I Accidentally Got My New Multimeter Blown Up 🤪🤯

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/fqizfltq
      Hello everyone, trust I meet you doing good?

      I think I'm gradually discovering my niche. You know, I've never created a video of such genre before. But, yeah! I did today. In this video I was basically sharing what it feels to have lost this multimeter so early. Because I recently just purchased it a month ago. And now its all good as bad. I also shared the story on what led to the accidental damage of my multimeter. It was more or less like a ramble and a shared thought of loss.

      But it isn't a bad video I assure you 😉. If you ever come across this, thanks for stopping by. Cheers🍻

    • A CORONA VIRUS UPDATE & THOUGHTS: THE NOT SO EFFECTIVE MEANS THE GOVERNMENT ARE TAKING IN MAKING LIVE EASY FOR US IN MY COUNTRY (NIGERIA).

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/zbsjcuis
      Good day. Trust you all are doing great and staying safe out there. In today's discussion, I started of by acknowledging the fact that the government are making effort in ensuring we get to live comfortably during this period of lockdown by providing palatives (majorly food items) to the citizens.

      But yet, it hasn't been evidently effective. So, in the cause of discussion, I stated why their means of approach hasn't been effective, and I also gave my opinion/thought in which can be considered in making their approach an effective one.

    • Learning To Unlearn; My Quest On Creating Quality Videos. + [VIDEO: My Aspirations & What I Do]

      https://3speak.tv/watch?v=k-banti/aijxzjln
      Hello everyone, trust I meet you doing good?

      Of recent, I've been watching lots of photography and cinematography videos on YouTube, and learning some trick and tips on how to deliver a quality and crisp video despite having a low budget. Well, as for me I presently do not a budget on get a camera and others related gears for photography and cinematography. But still, I wanted to be able to create something good or even better out of the little I have. Since I began my journey as a vlogger, I've made use of my smartphone to shot all my videos even until now. With the vast knowledge I acquired in operating a digital camera, I've never held on to one before. Hopefully, I'll still be able to retain a few of them. I've watched so many beginners photography tutorials on YouTube, and I also took a photography course online last year hoping I'll be able to gather some money to get my first digital camera. But I turned out I had to throw the money into investing in my education. I don't want to write about what I do (Educational wise) again because it's part of what I discussed already in the video. My aim of writing is to shared what led the amazing video I created, and things I've gradually been learning as regards to photography and videography/cinematography.

      Initially, I wasn't even too sure if I had given this blog post the right title. But to be sincere, it was the best title I could come up with after twenty four (24) hours plus of pondering on what to title it. One of my aspirations in life is to become a videographer/cinematographer. And it's definite that it isn't something that will happen instantly with or without effort. It will take time and it requires processes, in which I've yielded into beginning something with the little I'm provided with. I began vlogging in 2018 with my smartphone and I have created some awesome videos in the process. But I began to crave for something even more better from what I've created in the past. In the past, I've learnt some rules in the past which I now find false which states that "the massage you want to convey is the most important when creating a video while the rest doesn't really matter". Well, that's somewhat true. But taking for instance, if I was to pass across an important message in video with several activities going on in the background, or noises, or even I not looking straight into the camera. Its very possible you might get distracted and end up not getting the information I'm trying to pass across, or you might even exit the video without bothering to get to the part where I stated the information.

      That's basically what I found false in that rule. Information is key, but the composition, the feel, the look, and even the quality are what will actually determine if one will get to stay watching a video till it ends. This are things I'm beginning to learn. I watched several videos on YouTube on how to go about these things and I was able to gather a lot on them. I've got to understand that shooting a video with a digital camera isn't just what qualifies one to deliver a quality video. There's more to it, which are in general two things. They are the visual quality and sound quality. Visual quality entails having a good device to shoot the video which doesn't necessarily have to be a camera, a proper lighting condition, and colour correction/grading. While sound quality basically have to do with a having a mic that can take in good sound. There could perhaps be more, but these are the knowledge I've been able acquire so far during my quest.

      I decided I was going to achieve what creating a quality video looks like by making do of what I had around me, which was what resulted in the creation of this video I have above. I wanted to see what it looks like to apply some light and color correction/grading in my video. I have a fairly good device which I use for shooting me video. Its video and mic quality are fair. So I was set to try out and create something different from what I have created in time past. I began to set up the little gears I had in which I was going to achieve my result. I mounted the small lightning source I had on my lightweight tripod I got some months back. And mounted my smart phone on a mini tripod I got too. After I did the whole set up, I initially didn't know what I was going to say in the video because I wasn't prepare to pass any information across. All I was after was to achieve that crisp and quality look I see in videos online.

      Here's what my set up looked like. Pardon my messed up desk.
      I later got struck with the idea to share what I do as a person and what my aspirations are. Which is what I have in the content of the video above. I was able to achieve the look below with the lighting application techniques I learnt from a YouTube video. Link below. I used the paramount/butterfly lighting technique as is was called in the video to achieve the look below. And I shot the video in a dark room with no natural light.

      Here's the raw look
      I decide to to make some slight color correction in its look. Although, I really couldn't achieve the look I wanted because my PC monitor lacks colour details, and I won't want the look of my video to come out having much colours after I transfer it to another PC which will just end up ruining the video. After several adjustment I was still able to come out with something nice. I believe there is an obvious difference.

      Here's the look after I did some little colour correction.

      I felt a sense of fulfilment having been able to achieve the look I have in the video. I look forward to creating something more of this nature. I mean the video quality. For sure it will help in taking my vlogging dreams to a much better level. I'm also looking forward to purchasing a lavalier microphone soon so I can deliver a much better audio quality too. Kindly feel free to share your thoughts with me on better ways or some techniques to apply in creating/achieving a clear and crisp video.
