Taking pictures of noodles
Today I set up the butane stove outside and cooked a pot of ramen noodles for the Noodl.ist social media stuff.
I'm just waiting on the videos to migrate from my phone to icloud so I can pull them up on my laptop to edit into shorts and reels. Sometimes it takes a day or so.
Tomorrow I'll edit it up and throw it out into the sea of people doom scrolling 30 second videos while sitting on the toilet. I googled the best practices for filming a cooking video that would work in this format. No pauses, no talking, no waiting just jack up the audio levels and show rapid fire cooking progress. Simple enough.
I don't have advertising money so free videos on popular social media will have to do. I used a telescoping phone tripod my husband has had for a long time, it collapses into a hand held thing you can carry around as well which is fun.
Will see if the video gives us a boost in views to the site. I'm almost done with a major overhaul of the layout. It will have more of a dashboard appearance like reddit as opposed to the classic website look it has now. The last thing I want is for the site to look like a store or restaurant. I need it to look more like a wiki.
I made some new Yuki graphics for a few sections. (I need to make that pepper smaller.) Google hates it if things move around while trying to load so I'm really working on keeping as much static content above the fold as possible which means more static blocks of info and stuff.
