Do I live in the land of the Unicorns?

in #unicorn5 years ago

Hi Everyone,

Unicorn_THUMB.jpg

This post contains a short video of me from my new location in the ‘Land of the Unicorns’. Well actually, somewhere in the United Kingdom. The room I film this video in, is the most likely location for many of my upcoming videos. This room seems easy to set up with a camera and computer. The lighting is quite good. People don’t keep coming and interrupting me. The bar counter is easy to lean on if I start to get tired from talking for too long. However, the mirror behind me could be a bit of distraction.

I have used this location to film many of the videos for my upcoming economics course ‘Economics is for Everyone’. The course will be available on Udemy by the middle of July. The course contains 24 videos, course notes, presentation slides, multiple choice questions, and scenario questions. I will prepare a brief introduction video as an attempt to entice you to sign up for the course.

Back to the video (Youtube Version)

The video pokes fun at the unicorn craze that has been sweeping the planet for at least a couple of years. Everywhere I go, I see unicorns in one form or another. You name it; the unicorn appears on it somewhere. Who is to blame for this craze? I think Princess Twilight Sparkle has something to do with it. Princess Twilight Sparkle is a Pegasus-Unicorn from the My Little Pony Universe. I believe the character was one of the stars in the 2017 ‘My Little Pony’ Movie. This aligns with when unicorns started to become popular. I think there are tons of other reasons as well but I will use Princess Twilight Sparkle as the scapegoat.

I am hoping the next mythical creature to become exceedingly popular will be the Phoenix. Fawkes from the Harry Potter series is really cool. I think there is a good chance we will see more of Fawkes in the upcoming Fantastic Beasts movies. Considering the popularity of these movies, I think there is a chance the ‘Phoenix’ could have its moments of fame.

I hope you enjoy the video. It is something a little different from my usual economics content. I think we all deserve a break sometimes.

I think I love the mirror behind you, it wasn't a distraction for me and of course that accent, West London I guess?
Well I don't know about the unicorn craze, is there like a reason why this craze might be happening? looking forward to your course on udemy

My accent is quite a mixture. It has the English accent from when I was young, It has some Singaporean in it from my 16 years in Singapore. It has some Australian in it as well from my time in Australia. Different people seem to hear different parts of my accent. My accent also sounds a bit different when it is recorded as well.

The unicorn stuff was just a bit of fun as everywhere I go I see unicorns. It has been a thing for several years now.

The Udemy course should be good if you have an interest in economics and are looking for something a little less technical and more applied. I hope to have it up and ready in 2 weeks. I am new to Udemy so I am not sure how difficult it will be to run a course.
