I wish I knew more about video production.

I get tired of seeing/hearing another abled urbanist dude talk about issues I've been talking about for YEARS and getting accessibility wrong, but also probably about to get lauded for mentioning the word 'accessibility'.

@meganL There's tend to be video tutorials of how to use whatever video editor of choice, you can give Kdenlive a try.

@matty Thanks. It's a combo of time/money/intimidation that have kept me behind on it.

I'm just wishing that somehow I'd skipped past it and already knew how to do it because I hate getting lapped like this.

@meganL I totally understand as someone that wish to create videos.

Depending on what you want your video to show beside obviously you talking, you can get a way of maybe just using your phone or webcam. Any fancy graphics will of course takes some time to do.

I hope it isn't me manspaining and sorry if I do sound like I am. Just thought I at least say resources are available so it doesn't feel too intimidating to dip your toes into it if you do want to make videos in a disabled person perspective

@matty Thanks.

No, I don't see it as mansplaining.

I think sometimes there's a split between folks like me that need to vent before finally taking action and those who are more directly solutions-oriented. :)

@meganL I'm the same tbh and needs some time to just vent my frustration before I feel open to finding solutions for it
