Well, I did it! I posted my first video on YouTube! I feel crazy and nervous and confused and excited all at the same time. I do not edit my videos so you can hear all of my mistakes, flat or sharp notes, and voice cracks. But I needed to get myself out there.
I have emailed both Megan Nicole and another artist named Kurt Hugo Schneider. I have yet to hear back from them about some advice, which disappoints me I am not going to lie. I am hoping that I can get some advice from these people who have more experience than I do. So, as far as mentoring goes, I am slacking a little bit. I don't want that to be the case though, so I am striving to get in contact with a vocal instructor. My friend, Sarah Hirschi, recently performed at Carnegie Hall and got connected through her vocal teacher named Julie Meyer. I will probably try to be in contact with her soon. I have her email so hopefully she will respond!
The first song I performed was "I Have Nothing," by Whitney Houston. And in a way, you could say my current experience with this project applies to that title. I say this because the only view on my video is from myself and I am still struggling with mentors. So, in a way, I do have nothing :) However, I will not give up. This is what I want to do in the future and I think that this is an opportunity I have been waiting for, for a long time.
I chose this song because of the power behind it. Houston has made a name and career for herself through this very popular song of hers. I was hoping that could be the case for me as well! I hope to use a variety of different genres on my channel and get some more professional videos up as time goes on.
So, if you would help me out, that would be great! This is my YouTube link. Subscribe, like, comment, do whatever you want so I can get some feedback :)
