History of Mystifyed Live part 3

Yes Here it is, the Third part in the evolution of The Mystifyed Live show. Today's Mystifyer Trivia Question was: "In which month, between September 2010 and Now, did we NOT air any Mystifyed Live Episodes?" The answer is simple this time...November, but here is why and what lead up to that.

So during my 1st show my camera had not worked at all so I didn't appear on camera until episode 2. Well, during Episode 2 I had the camera continually drop the video and we lost audio several times. these problems continued to plaque the show for several more months. However the became more and more problematic as the show continued to develop.

During Episode 3 I was honored to have V, the Founder of The Magic Network, TMN, join me on the show. We also had My producer, Mike Olsen, join in as he is heavily involved with TMN. unfortunately Tech fail reared its ugly head yet again when we had Echo, Echo, Echo,Echo... and the set was not very easy for me to work around for filming. I had to move the camera manually while streaming resulting in ceiling and floor shots along with getting the viewers motion sick.

Now Episode 3 was not a total failure, we did have a great interview with V and several interactive mentalism demonstrations that he performed. We did lots of promoting of TMN and I had the support of many of the TMN members tuning in.

After V's episode we switched to a once a month schedule for Mysityfed Live so we could work out Tech issues in-between. Our next episode was due to air on the first Saturday of November but I didn't want to miss out on the opportunity to perform some paranormal magic for Halloween. so despite our new schedule i added an extra show for Sunday October 31 2010. this episode was to be purely performance based scheduled to last 1/2 hour.

Halloween Night came. We started the show almost 20 minutes late because we were unable to get into Ustream, the program we used at the time for our live stream. After the delay we had several camera issues including the camera coming loose from the stand at the end. This resulted in a shorter show exactly 13 minutes and 13 seconds...creepy.

With the special episode over we had only one week to prepare for the next show that coming Saturday. mean while I had deleted Ustream and reloaded it to try to work out the kinks. and as far as the camera stand that got a little bit of Duct Tape. Sounded like we were set but found out that Saturday that the new version of Ustream I downloaded didn't work. We apparently were missing some file on the computer. with no live feed i called it quits and figured that the show was a lost cause due to all the tech issues so I gave it up and therefore there was no show in November.

Stay tuned to find out what turned around the show and allowed it to become what it is today.
