Live in Living Color!
July 31, 2012 in Get the D-Tails
Okay… Maybe I’m not quite Live in Living Color… but I am Live in Living YouTube!
I decided to make a lil’ video for y’all seein’ as we’ve gotten to be good friends and such. (Why do I tend to slip into a terrible country accent these days? Don’t worry… I don’t take myself seriously when I do that!)
It took me about 20 minutes to capture a buh-jillion takes. I set up my Canon Rebel, switched it to video mode, and hit record. The rest is… well… a hot mess. It’s not perfect… but it’s perfectly me?
Oddly enough… that was the first take I did. At the time, I thought I could improve upon it… so I did take after take after take after take…. after take…. after take….. and ended up with more bloopers, horse sounds and eye rolling than any one girl should have. I laughed out loud a couple times watching the clips and decided to share the mockery with you! Besides… if you can’t laugh at yourself, you probably have no business laughing at anyone else!
Ridiculous? Definitely. Totally Dana? Without. a. doubt.
Hope you guys enjoyed this little adventure into video blogging. These clips will hang out on my sidebar over yonder (points to the right) for a while. Feel free to come back and giggle at my outtakes if you ever need a laugh!

I think it’s awesome and you look beautiful! Keep up the good work! Love the outtakes too..hee hee. I speak horse.
Thanks Sarah! I didn’t originally plan on posting the bloopers… but they were too ridiculous not to.
Ah ha ha ha……. I didn’t see any bloopers and I smiled through it so I think you did good.
~Bliss~
I should also add if I wasn’t already a follower it would be the outtakes that made me one!
~Bliss~
Thanks Bliss! Wish we lived closer! I’d hijack your living room and steal the exposed beam… and then let you work the video camera for my next attempt at a video blog!
Dana – Not only am I laughing now but I know when this memory randomly pops into my head, I’ll once again crack up (seemingly for no apparent reason) and others will slowly start to walk away from me!
You sound/look great – and so does your stable full of horses!!!!!!
Kelly
Hahahaha Kelly you’re cracking me up. Glad you liked my herd
Hahahahahahahaha. You only lol’d once??? I laughed the whole time. Love it and love you, sister!!
That was a roller coaster of emotions. At one point I walked away for a good 20 minutes because I was getting mad at myself. Slooooow Down. haha
That was great! The ‘words’ on the outtakes were perfect…nice job. Can’t wait to see more!
I’ve had quite a few people ask if I was going to do more videos. I think I might have to after the response these got!
Seriously just watched it again. Too much, D
Oh my gosh now I am even more certain that we could be bffs in real life! LOVE IT! I think you are right It is so so so cool to “get to know you” just that much more via the videos… hummmmm mayyybbbeee someday I will have to do one too…. ohhh boy I am nervous just thinking about it mainly because mine would be all out takes and no normal chatting… but hey like you said… if you can’t laugh at yourself….!
Jaime
I wholeheartedly agree jaime – we’d be BFFs for sure
…and yes – you absolutely HAVE to make a video. Dooooo it!
Girl, you are a natural! Keep it up
Thanks Debbie!
I so needed this to start my week. You were great. I don;t know if I can compare to that video mastery. But I do speak fluent sarcasm so we can talk later.
Oh Emily – I have a feeling we’d have GREAT sarcastic conversations!
Thank you!!!! I have started doing videos for my website http://homastyle.com and finally was brave enough to put up a bloopers video. Love your editing with text! I was afraid I was the only one laughing at myself, but I laughed with endearing laughs at your outtakes. Thanks again!!
Jeanette you’re too cute. I can’t wait to check out your video blogs… especially the bloopers.
Love it!!!!
Thanks Erin!
LOVE IT! I’m a little spoiled as to the fact that I’ve already gotten to know in person. YAY for me
You look great on video girl…
