DeroVolk's Blog

Just one more video mom! Last week I posted a video called “DeroVolk Channel SIGN-OFF” and it looks like that it was a total success. The Online Cambridge Dictionary defines it as “ to stop doing your work or another activity for a period of time ”. On TV, it means that the station stops its operations until next morning. Sign-offs were widely used in the past when TV stations did not transmit 24 hours a day. However, until this day, there are still many stations that sign-off at night. The final screen of the Sign-Off video I have always, for some reason, liked this kind of stuff. Of course, you can find unique recordings of anthems in sign-offs, but there is also something special on them. That is why I decided to do my own. I must recognize that I had already done some sign-offs in the past both for DeroVolk or other projects, but they did not have the quality or perfection that I wanted. Maybe some old viewers of my channel will remember the original sign-off of DeroVolk! Bu...

What I use... One of the many things that people has asked me during all these years if what editing software I use. Well, although I have replied to many comments, I cannot answer them all. So, this is a good opportunity to share with you the programs that I use not only when I do DeroVolk videos, but also daily life projects. SONY VEGAS Source: Flickr (npslibrarian) This is the number one choice. It is very easy to use and has a user-friendly interface. It also has many options for video quality and video formats. If you are looking for a certain option, you will find it quickly because the menus do not have a lot of things like other editing software. I highly recommend get used to this program because it will be useful for you, even if you do not know anything about video editing and you are just starting. During college, this program saved me several times in marketing courses! ADOBE PREMIERE PRO Source: Piqsels If Sony Vegas is not enough for you, consider Premiere Pro. It is...

The Beginning... Since the dawn of our species man has been blessed with curiosity. This is something that I have embraced since I was a kid. I know that I and many others have spent nights reading articles on Wikipedia or other similar sites, watching videos and listening classical compositions. This is one of the reasons of why I got interested in this topic. Source: Pixabay By 2008 I had already listened to several national anthems for different reasons. For example, when I was in 3 rd grade, they taught us “La Marsellaise” in my French class of my school in Chile. Then I came to Spain for the first time in 2007, and I listened to the well-known “Marcha Real” (which is already a meme in my channel). I had listened those anthems, but I was not interested in that topic. That changed in 2008 when I was watching YouTube videos and one of them got my attention. It was a Soviet Parade video and on one part of it the Soviet National Anthem was played by the Red Army Band. It got my atte...
