Re: [VFB] Fantasy Fly news and updates- You-tube Channel

[Pacres]

thanks Don

I just subscribed with my Piscator Flies youtube account. Nice job on the
streamer presentation you have posted. You should do this for all the
different galleries you have on the site. It'll take some time, but keep
posting and you'll get lots of people looking.

Re: [VFB] Fantasy Fly news and updates- You-tube Channel

[DonO]

Thanks, Darren,

The photo-video is ‘Fly Fishing Streamers by DonO’ and my channel is ‘Fantasy 
Flies’.  I didn’t post my latest streamers as I want to do a actual video using 
‘Wing Things’ in the fly design.

To the right you’ll see a ‘photo-video’ of me tying at the Boise Expo this 
winter.

Both are just ‘get-it-started’ posts, so the next ones will be way better.  My 
SiL has never fly-fished or been around flies or fly-fishing all her life 
(chiropractor retiring), so I’m having to bring her along in her understanding 
of the business/hobby aspects as she works on the website and video editing.

She’s also a writer, getting her first novel published. So I may have some 
articles to to, but I’d rather do videos now.

We just posted the two You Tubes, and they’re nothing special, so not many 
views or subscribers.  Hoping the new videos will change that.  We chopped up 
DVD #1 into smaller web-based segments so tiers who couldn’t afford the DVD 
could download segments of the DVD for just a few bucks. The You-Tube trailer 
will be a teaser for the technique.  We’ll see how it goes. 

DVD #2 – advanced rope-dubbing- will be technique-by-technique and applied 
flies on the website.  So each video segment could be 10 minutes long and 
contain a whole lot of information.  Dubbing with raw, unblended furs could 
easily be a 1-hour video.  We’ll post pattern videos on You Tube to get traffic 
to the website.

dogs don’t mix well.
Fly-Side News:
1. My Matlacha Rainbow Streamer (below) was chosen for the expo pin 
logo-fly for the Western Idaho Fly Fishing Expo 2018  scheduled for Jan 13 & 
14, 2018.  There was a contest for ‘the best pin fly design’, so I declined 
since I don’t enter competitions.  They came back to me since they really liked 
the streamers I donated to their conservation auction at the last show and 
banquet. So I just sent the MR photo below and told them if they want to use it 
they could. 
They just got back and said it would be the logo fly on the official Show 
Pin next year. They usually pick full dress salmon flies.

2. Website:  Completely re-doing FantasyFlies.com with a new web-page 
program and provider.  Will be much easier to post new photos, articles, 
videos, etc.  No one but Darren can upgrade the html-based site as it is now, 
so I have to switch to non-genius format. Thanks Darren (Pacres) for your help 
years ago.
3. Rope-dubbing videos are progressing, and have the 1st one for You-tube 
very close (trailer video- lol).  Had to set me up a You Tube Channel with all 
the bells and whistles, so that took some time.  Posted some short videos of 
photos of me at the Idaho Falls show this spring, and one of some streamers- 
just to test our posting settings.  Looking good.  Needed the website addressed 
1st for this also, with a modified Rope Dub page.  Lots of work.
4. #32 video.  Have it in editing with SiL for video trials for macro 
clarity, and I think we’ve got it down now. Will do one more tie, and then some 
clips of setting up the materials, then final edit and post.  I want to have 
the website and channel done before I post in case I get any views or traffic. 
Hope fully it will be as good quality-wise as the Rope Dub #1 DVD video was.  
Have had to learn my Sony Handi-cam and the editing software with SiL.
5. 14/0 Giant Flies- Making a new group of giant flies and will be posting 
individual photos of each as they are finished.  That way a buyer gets exactly 
what he or she ordered.  This will be new- Flies for sale page. Will be how I 
feed myself after retirement this summer.
6.  Big Classic Streamers in clear presentation boxes- Will order the 
plastic display boxes soon to set my large show-streamers in to sell as 
individuals.  Also getting my wood shop set up for shadow-box framing groups.  
Should be fun.  All will be on the new website. 
So LOTS going on, plus getting done a few other things I’ve been putting 
off.
