24.08 | August '24: It's all about Video's
With the holidays coming up, this month was basically all about preparing for that... But I still managed to find time and add some new content and even start some noise on the socials!
In this months blog
Writing the articles...
This month was not about writing articles at all. Instead, it was all about holidays and those first YouTube video's!
During July and August I did get some great information again which I will be using for new articles, but these will probably be written in September or October, so stay tuned for those!
Videos & Scripting...
I did it! During the holidays in Slovenia I was able to find a few nice and relaxing spots to record the first video's! At this very moment, I uploaded the first video's, including the full "Start to Finish" series, to the YouTube channel and added some shorts to get a greater reach. I also created some noise on our Instagram and Facebook channels. Be sure to follow and Subscribe to get updated when the next video's arrive... Which hopefully will be rather soon :)
While recording and editing the video's I learned a lot and there is definitely space for improvement. In the future, you will see the video's get more professional with each one of them... At least I hope you will...
Website & Social Media Update...
As said, YouTube video's have arrived and more are coming! This also means that I need to start making some serious noise on the socials as well to get people to see the videos... The first noise was made already, but from now on, I will have to keep making noise!

Costs vs. Income
My goal is to keep providing all the basic information on StageRebels.com for free to those that need it, but at the same time, it does cost me time and money as well. In an attempt to just cover some of the costs, I decided to use Amazon Affiliate links and I played around with Paypal Donations, for which you can see the button at the bottom of the page.
Conclusion
The website itself didn't get much updates as the focus was on holidays and getting the video's recorded, which I did. I am really happy with this progress and a bit proud for actually recording these video's... It was a first time for me and in all honesty, I was a bit nervous about it...
Next month will be mostly aimed at releasing the video's, making noise on the socials about it and probably have another article or two. On top of this, I will be hosting 3 StageX Workshops, which means I will be learning a lot again and probably will use the experience to update the website as well!

While on holidays, I found myself a nice spot at a lake to work and shoot the video's that will soon be available on YouTube!
