What is the best way to ensure fans can stay up-to-date<br />
with Season 3 developments?<br />
Firstly, subscribe to the Exploring Stamps YouTube channel<br />
(https://aps.buzz/Explore), it’s completely free and notifies<br />
you when new episodes and other channel videos are<br />
launched. The best way to follow my progress and challenges<br />
with the season 3 filming is through social media, I post regularly<br />
on Instagram, Twitter and Snupps. The philatelic communities<br />
on those platforms have influenced several of my<br />
videos in the past as I often post questions and polls. I have<br />
been challenged with different ideas that have changed my<br />
perception and approach to various stamp topics.<br />
What are you most excited about for Season 3 (aside<br />
from playing with super fun-looking parachutes)?<br />
The parachute video just proves that I am having way too<br />
much fun with this hobby; I get excited about trying new<br />
things and techniques such as the parachute teaser trailer.<br />
Video provides an endless set of tools to engage an audience,<br />
and one of the bigger challenges is using those tools to create<br />
a balanced video. The goal is to get the viewer interested and<br />
leave them eager to learn more. For each of the first 2 seasons<br />
I experimented and found some techniques that really work<br />
well with philately and storytelling, and I plan to continue<br />
experimenting. I am in the process of building an actual set<br />
for one of the videos, something that I have not yet done. I<br />
am also looking to blend green-screen effects with an on-site<br />
location and I am looking forward to seeing how those episodes<br />
turn out.<br />
Anything you’d like to mention that we haven’t already?<br />
For each video since the very first, I have been learning<br />
about philately and the stamps that I have shown and spoken<br />
about. If you are an experienced and knowledgeable philatelist,<br />
you can see my understanding and respect for philately<br />
grow through the first 40 episodes as well as the off-season<br />
videos. If you are new to the hobby and have watched the videos,<br />
you would have grown and learned about philately with<br />
me. I would love for more collectors to bring their knowledge<br />
and insights to my channel and other social media platforms,<br />
helping to encourage the newcomers to the hobby, and continue<br />
to grow the philatelic presence online.<br />
