It doesn't contain anything you guys don't already know about Dramatica, but it's my first video and I thought I'd share it here for feedback:\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJzXkRBsgzA\n\nLast semester in college I completed my first screenwriting class, and next semester I plan to take introductory film making courses (and maybe another screenwriting class, depending on how much free time I don't want).", "group_id": 2515, "id": 1600548}, {"user_id": 7712, "stars": [], "topic_id": 41542, "date_created": 1310243434.413311, "message": "I'm hoping the film making classes will help me improve the quality of productions such as the one shared above.", "group_id": 2515, "id": 1600558}, {"user_id": 7645, "stars": [], "topic_id": 41542, "date_created": 1310253517.4613481, "message": "I got a credit!

The font size may depend on monitor resolution and the size the video is being viewed in. The video was recorded at 720p (1280x720), so adjusting the viewing size in YouTube may be the solution. I'll experiment with the font size in future videos and hopefully find a better solution.\n\nEveryone, thanks for the feedback.
