So ed001, the transfer window has been shut just over two hours, any updates on January targets? Maybe a cheeky bid for Fernandes? 😂😂

In all seriousness thanks for all your efforts through the transfer window, Ed002 for his encyclopaedia knowledge and ed025 for being the token blue nose and terrible banter. Now we get on to the serious stuff, roll on tomorrow night!

{Ed001's Note - you are very welcome mate. Roll on tomorrow alright.}

Finally back to normal, I can't wait until tomorrow mate.

{Ed001's Note - I have to admit I no longer enjoy transfer windows. They have become tedious and full of stupid clickbait stories.}

I had sky on at work and they were dying for something to happen, think the window should be scrapped as it might help fees. Will also help youngsters.
If they did scrap it, the first year would be manic with all the transfer stories but think it’d eventually die down as people lose interest.

Ed, I must admit mate, usually I look forward to them but this transfer window didn't interest me at all. I'm glad it's over because I was fed up of hearing about the bloody thing to be honest. It's just an event for gobsh*tes these days especially now twatter and what not has made it big.

Still though, no matter how crap it is, you and the other Eds have carried on throughout no matter how annoying it must be, so a big thank you to yourself and the rest. Very much appreciated mate.

{Ed001's Note - I just distract myself with articles and podcasts and figuring out how to do videos, which is the next plan for the sites.}

Ed, Im a motion graphics designer/ video creator, so let me know if you need any help or advice with videos.

With the success Firmino achieved at Copa, the dazzling moments at Wembley, this upcoming season feels like it's going to be a special one for him.

The positional diversity some of our players have, and the togetherness and desire of the team, makes total sense for a quiet transfer window.

The team knows what they need to do!

After the Champions League journey we went through 2 years, I never felt we would get that same incredible and emotional rollercoaster again, but last season they upped it with victory, and almost the Premier League as well.

The Anfield roar when Brighton scored vs Man City will continue into the new season. God damn this year is going to be awesome!

{Ed001's Note - I need lots of help mate! Literally just about to dip my toes in the water with OBS Studio.}

Yikes! Free, open source software can be a pain to learn. There's some simplified options out there, but they come at a cost. What types of content are you looking to record/ stream, is it going to be live or pre-recorded/ embedded onto the site?

{Ed001's Note - I was thinking about doing a bit of both long term, but to start with pre-recorded seems easier.}

hey 4degrees, if you don't mind, could you share some of those free video editing softwares? im looking for one, but only really need the basics of editing (cutting, combining multiple clips etc. ), so a simple and easy to use software would suffice for now.

if this thing works out for me i may venture into paid softwares eventually, but would like to try out the free softwares first.

Davinci Resolve 16 (non studio version)
Very good option for video editing, and it’s free!

Avoid buying into software such as Adobe - unless your in a professional environment working for companies who already use it in their workflow.

Not much knowledge with streaming, I just know it can get expensive.

Video hosting wise-
YouTube is free and has its limitations, but its a decent option and you can embed onto sites etc etc.
Vimeo is the next step up- more professional and sleek. The Free ‘Basic’ package gives you embed options, but tight limitations on how many videos/ bandwidth your allowed.

Using Webcams, cameras, phones - as long as you have decent lighting setup, your shots will look good! A microphone hooked up to your recording device will enhance the video even further, so worth looking into.

{Ed001's Note - cheers mate, I will have a look into that.}
