How to Participate in a Virtual Ensemble

If you would like to participate in a virtual ensemble, the process is pretty simple.  Your nest instructor will send you a video or sound file with the master track, you will play along (just like a camper concert) and a Fiddle Camp staff video editor will magically combine the videos.  What? No recording device? A couple of possibilities:  get your child/grandchild/parent to be your camera person;  you can also use Zoom with you as the only participant and record the session.

1) Set up the tune video from your teacher on a playback device–likely a computer–and headphones are preferred.
2) Set up a filming device–likely a phone–to film yourself as you play along. Horizontal orientation, well-lit, and quiet is best.
3) Tune your instrument!!
4) Start the original tune video playback, hit “record/film” on your own filming device, and play along!
5) When finished, upload to the Dropbox link provided by your nest instructor.

You do not need to have a dropbox account to submit files!

These videos will be created and released in the weeks following camp. If things really get moving quickly enough, we may even be able to include some videos during a camper concert on Sunday. As always, reach out with questions!
