1963 Vintage and Colheita Port tasting

Post by christopherpfaff »

In February this year World of Port held a fantastic tasting of 20 different Ports of the year 1963 in Leverkusen (Germany). Among the 16 participants were also honoured guest Nick Delaforce, who was interviewed for the video summarisation of this event, who is published now:

A request about post-production: please could the volume be consistent? To hear Axel I had to set the volume to maximum. Then the music blasted at me, and I almost spilt my coffee. Nick Delaforce’s words were quiet, and followed by loud music but once bitten, twice shy, at least I was prepared for the second blast.

Please could the volume be consistent, or, if inconsistent, could the music be quieter and the interesting talking be louder?

Thank you.

(Others: finish your coffee before playing the video. You have been warned.)

this is so that you don´t go asleep by watching the video :D

to be serious, when I produced the video, I hear the sound maybe a thousand times, and adjust it to be consistent. and when I watch the original file at my PC it is consistent. but that is only the first part, after uploading it via YouTube, YouTube transfer the file in an other type of file. I think that is the reason, and it is a reason that I can´t influence.

I’ve never made a YouTube video, so didn’t know how difficult these things are.
