Looks good. Sounds good.

On Pretty Darn Close. As he tuned up back stage, my late brother used to say. "Close enough for jazz."

Anyone capable of learning the solo you're teaching probably doesn't need a four count to get started. Two should be fine. ... three... four... downbeat.

Intro / Outro might get a little tedious if your students do lots of lessons.

Intro / Outro might get a little tedious if your students do lots of lessons.

Perhaps in the future the intro / outro can be made shorter?

Yes that may be best, I do intend to be as succinct as possible. Thanks for the input!

Well done.

The lesson is well executed, the lighting is great and everything can be seen clearly, and the sound together with balance between guitar and voice is bright and clear.

I agree with Set that the intro and outro do dominate for this short presentation - they are maybe better suited to a 15 minute video. You might consider the following:

No intro but straight into the first solo with the name of the song and the fact that it's a lesson superimposed on the dead areas of the screen. (Some will see it first without their sound turned on.)

Then straight to you introducing yourself integrated with your branding and animation. Then continue with the lesson followed by the outro. That way the lesson flows straight through and will possibly better sustain repeated viewings.

Good luck with your future offerings.

Having produced the Cole Porter musical twice (the 1962 revival and the Beaumont), can I assume your exquisite tutorial has absolutely nothing to do with either?

Thank you, and I had not even thought about how many may be watching with the sound off! I certainly must consider that.

Not even close lol.

Ha

Tanked by Android autospell, whose vocabulary only extends back to 2008...

The Cole Porter musical, Anything Goes, was produced in 1934, and capitalized on the antihero popularity of Capone and other villains of the prohibition era.

I think your concept is good and easy to see the riffs being played which is exactly what a tutorial should be. The audio quality is among the best out there too.

Imho the outro is fine but I agree w/ the other member's comments that the intro should be brief.
