I’ve been thinking of getting into making videos, not entirely sure on how to start out though. I grew up on your videos so figured I’d ask you, thanks for any help!

I haven’t been fortunate enough to meet him; I do have a lot of heroes though, maybe too many… I would like to meet you and Steve though, you’re both some of the kindest folks.

Thanks a million for the kind words. That means a lot to me. 🙇‍♂️

As far as making videos goes, ask away! The barrier to entry has never been lower, so that’s great. And as with anything done for fun, that helps the motivation to learn how to do it to.

I don’t know if it’s a matter of knowing where to start, needing direction, resources, or technical no how, or anything else, but happy to give any insight I may have!

After thinking about it, I think my biggest problem is just tricks–I guess I’m not the most creative person when it comes to tricks, I’m kind of wondering if you have any cool elements you like adding to tricks to make them look cooler?

Wasn’t K-Strass actually posting on TheYo and YYN before his appearance on that infamous news segment?

I’d just say that the more tricks you learn, the easier it’ll be to create.  
Or, try learning tricks 80% of the way, rearranging the elements, combining elements into other tricks you know, etc.  
You can always create a unique combination of elements that feels good to you, even if you struggle to make up unique elements.  
Eventually, as with anything, you’ll figure out how to make fully unique tricks. Just takes time, effort, and playing around. 🙂 I can help with specifics on making up unique tricks, but I would start with making unique combinations first, and trying to add some personal style/flair to them.

Beyond learning tricks, you can work on your style - how you perform the trick. Speed changes, isolation, zoning/how & where you position your hands in relation to the trick. For that, you could watch players like Ando or Zach Gormley or Gentry or anyone else who’s style you like, and try to mimic whatever it is about their style that you find appealing.

This’ll be very helpful… Thanks! I’ll credit you at the end of the video, and let you know when I release it. assuming you’re cool with that.

Hey thank you all so much for the video suggestions, they have been so fun to watch!!!

And if you didn’t see, I have compiled these into a playlist that I’ll be keeping updated:

Fun Fact: In The Letter Blue, C’mon by Acts29 is not the original song for the video, the original songs are A Million Ways by Ok Go, and Murderers by John Frusciante.

Me neither; Acts29 is now one of my favorite artists, I’m just wondering why anyone would change the song?

you can find the original version of the video on Elliot Jackson’s YouTube channel.

I didn’t think about that–I think Acts29 is almost as underground as you can get, he dropped a few songs, some CDs, then left. I don’t even know his real name. lol

Sometimes the way copyright strikes work on YouTube doesn’t follow logic so I’d still hazard a guess that’s why (might not even be Acts29 who made the strike).

Both versions of the video are still up, maybe someone liked the video, but didn’t listen to secular music, so they changed the song? I’m not entirely sure, people are weird.

I’ve never wanted an archive of TheYo more than I do now and I’ve been jonesing for one since it shut down.

It’s a real shame JD just up and disappeared with the YYN archive…
