Talking About Audio & Thumbnails | dreamvlog #33 [DTubeDaily]

In today's video I'm showing you the difference in audio quality between the built-in microphone of my Canon G7 X which I have been using in my previous videos and the ZOOM H1 handy recorder which I got a few days ago, both unedited.

It makes a humongous difference in my opinion. In general, I can say that in my office it seems like 99% of the background noise is gone with this recorder. I think the 90 Euros have been a great investment.

Thumbnail Tuning

Another thing that I have been working on this morning and last evening were my thumbnails. This was also on my list for some weeks now as I wasn't really satisfied with the readability of some of the titles.
Sometimes it didn't make a difference if I either chose a bright or a dark color for the title. Both weren't on some spots easy to read and that's why I needed to get some borders or something similar around the letters to get a better contrast.

But unfortunately, Canva which was the app I used so far to create all my thumbnails with wasn't able of this feature. Or at least I couldn't find it…
That's why I now switched completely to Pixelmator. It's a cheap but very strong photo editing app for Mac and I used it to add some shadows behind the font which should now make things a little bit easier to read. I also made some little adjustments besides that. I hope you like them!
I also realized that Pixelmator has much more features than Canva so I can be more creative with my thumbnails in the future as well.

That was my quick update for today.
