My problem with the former is that it needs you to have an AWS and I tried, but I got stuck in the mobile confirmation - the code from AWS wouldn't reach my phone - so that's a no go so far. I've looked up a bunch of services and I think Amazon Polly and Google TTS are the most natural sounding I've encountered. Solution? I think I'm fine with a Text-to-Speech service. 3) Even if #2 wasn't a problem, I don't have good gear to record a good voice over. 2) I don't like my voice and don't have the talent to do it myself. I'm recording the gameplay via Nvidia Share (aka Shadowplay), editing the video via DaVinci Resolve, so basically all that's left is the voice-over narration.Ī few problems though: 1) I don't plan on monetizing, so it would not be cost-efficient to hire someone to do the voice over.
If you're familiar with Noah Caldwell-Gervais, check out his YouTube, that's probably the closest example of what I'd like to aim for.
I just want to dabble in creating videos that are basically video essays about video games.
