How to get more You Tube views with Ebay

Ok I am going to let you into a little secrete. The best way to get lots of You Tube views is to list something to Ebay and then add one of your You Tube videos. I had over a thousand views when I added this video in one week, when I was selling my handmade Monster High Dolls masks and wings. Problem is I used my partners original music at the beginning of the video. Don't do this if you are a part of the You Tube Partnership programme as you have to prove the music is your own, which is sort of impossible as far as I know. I doubt You Tube have time to check everyone's evidence that they have created the original music. So stay clear of recorded songs! I have even heard of bands singing live original songs and not having adds put on. Please leave comments below and tell me your You Tube Partnership experience.  


My parter is singing his original song here. He created the music himself and is singing live. The You Tube Partnership adverts are on this video. I need to do some serious research into what is accepted and not. 



This video of my little girl got accepted in the You Tube Partnership. She created part of song with Daddy upstairs and recorded it. Then she sang it live downstairs in the front room with just the track in the background. I have read that some videos are not getting accepted with background music. So probably best to stay clear of that sort of stuff if you are trying to make money from your You Tube videos. I am not adding any music to my videos any more.


HOW TO PUT A VIDEO ON EBAY


Note. Make sure you use the old video code. Here are my full instructions. And here is
to a better life for everyone, not just the rich!

Child's humour about fathers game addiction

CHILD'S HUMOUR ABOUT A FATHER WHO IS ADDICTED TO ONLINE GAMES

This made me really giggle. My daughters friend came over for tea yesterday and they were writing their secret Monster High code, which my little girl had created, when Daddy flopped himself on the sofa next to them and started playing his silly little hand held online game.

Little Snowflakes friend started laughing and could not stop giggling. I was laughing too. But what she came out with really made him look silly:

Little Snowflakes Father said: "What are you laughing at?"
I replied "The way you just sat down on the sofa while the kids are trying to play."
Little Snowflakes friend told him "My brother plays that silly game and so does my Dad, GROW UP!"

If only adults would listen to children ah. Well the good news is he is doing his music again more than game playing, as far as I know. Last night we had a music night where Daddy and Daughter sang and created a song while Mummy watched. It was total heaven and these are the memories I want to look back on.

Here is my little girl trying to sing but she cannot stop laughing. The song she ends up singing is very game orientated "WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS BY QUEEN." No time for losers because Daddy is a champion of online games! Yes we should have changed the lyrics for fathers day. Daddy we are proud that you are working so hard and thank you! Honestly never seen you work so hard in my life.


I am still looking into the Train2Game course my partner started 9 months ago and now cannot finish. He needs time to kick back and play his online game which relaxes him and takes him to a world where he can win. But lately he has been doing his music too. Believe me I am going to find learning about how the Games Industry work and run really dull and boring. But the animation side fascinates me. I would love to create animated films and seeing as we are tied into this games course I cannot see £5,000 thrown down the drain when we could have used this for replacing the roof. But there is no way I am playing one of those silly games unless I have created it myself and have to try it out.

My addiction is trying to get a better life for our little girl by blogging and hopefully being able to earn a living from home to support our child and give her a better life. I dream of the day when I can say come on sweetie pack your bag we are off to Venice or New Zealand and show her the world I used to know when I worked full time and had no commitments. But saying that she is the best thing that has ever happened to me and being a Mum has taught me that other people really matter. She makes my heart whole when it was broken, I am truly blessed.

GAME QUESTION FOR YOU - LEAVE A RESPONSE IN THE COMMENTS BELOW

Is your father or husband/partner addicted to online or video games? Are your children addicted to video and online games? If so how does it affect your family life? Add me on Google Plus. Family is important don't throw it away. My partner is now doing music again thank goodness as his online and video game addiction seriously does my head in. I bet you know this reply when you ask for help "I can't help you at the moment because I am playing online." In other words the game is more important and they have to win!

Make Monster High Sofa chair


Here is my step by step video tutorial on how to make this gorgeous little Monster High Sofa Chair. The dolls sofa chair is my own design. The bigger version is of a 5 seater sofa, both shaped as a fish.


I will upload the sofa chair template for you to print off from this blog shortly. Then all you have to do is grab an old cereal packet, cut up an old velvet dress, fetch some empty toilet rolls from the recycling and use fabric glue to put together. Easy peasy.

Here is a video of some of the things I made out of cardboard for my little girl who is a huge Monster High Fan. This is a little Monster High Lounge or as we call it in the UK a front room. Quite funny really as Mum's front room is at the back of the house:


The purple Monster High Sofa I created with Lagoona Blue in mind.
The sofa is shaped as a fish. I may have to add a fish eye and decorate.




Fun arts and crafts the Butterfly Lullaby way!

Train2game is it a scam?

Train2game (Train to game) is it a scam? 3d Max animation course. It is so easy to jump to the wrong conclusion by reading bad feedback. But as a You Tube user that gets nasty comments on my videos just for the hell of it, I have to keep an open mind. I have to admit it is scary especially when you have a roof that needs replacing which affects your little girls asthma because of the bad damp. So believe me I will be investigating fully and making sure the qualification at the end of the games course actually gets you a job! My partner has paid 9 payments and wants me to take this course over. I have been told the course costs £5,000 in total, which you pay in monthly instalments. For me this money would have replaced our roof so I do not want to waste three years of my time on a course that is not going to give me a recognised qualification at the end of it for the games/animation industry.

I have checked with Companies House and their Company Registration number is legit! If you go to their website and scroll down to the bottom you will see their full postal address which is in London. Don't take my word for it I want you to phone Companies House yourself Tel: 03031234500. Double check the number on the Internet.

http://www.train2game.com/courses/
Train2Game is a trading name of Metropolitan International Schools Limited of 211 Piccadilly, London W1J 9HF (registered in England and Wales with number 2646404

Is the Train2game Diploma a qualification that is recognised by the Gaming Industry? I have emailed Direct Gov and requested this information. I would suggest you do the same.

https://forms.direct.gov.uk/forms/form/2/en/directgov-contact_us

Please do leave me a comment below. If you have taken this course and got a job with a Production Company could you please share your journey.  The thing I like about this course if it is real, is that you are not put in a box and made to feel worthless if you do not have any qualifications. So it gives everyone a chance to shine! Fingers and toes cross this Train2game course is all it says it is! And if it is then I would love to blog about the course and see if it gets us a better life and a career that will pay more than the bills.

I have to admit I hate Xbox and games. But animation is something I would love to do. How long has Wire Productions been trading?


Game Horizon, does anyone know anything about this company?


My partner saw this course advertised by a lady from the The Gadget TV show. So I really cannot see them advertising something that is not real.


Well that is all from me today and I hope to get some positive comments from people that have taken this course on and are happy, so please leave me some feedback. And remember it is so easy to jump to the wrong conclusions about things, we all do it. So it is important to try and have an open mind and investigate things before thinking the worst.

How to draw Draculaura

How to draw Draculaura from Monster High is a video by child artist Little Snowflake, my little girl. She draws really quickly like Rolf Harris. Here are some of her Monster High Drawings.


Little Snowflake has something in common with Draculaura. She is the Butterfly Princess in my story book Butterfly Lullaby who turns into a vampire bat at night and drains her mother, Queen Butterfly of all her energy. Making her frail and unable to fly. You guessed it she is under an enchanted spell.


Is Draculaura from Monster High a vampire or a Butterfly Princess?

Music for games 3ds Max animation

Ok every game programmer needs music to create an animation for games or film. The question is are you going to go for the free stuff that everyone is using or will you stand out from the crowd and be unique? Why not partner with my other half and do something together, no cost, a total team effort to create something that will stand out in your animation portfolio!

Here is one of my partners original songs called Out of the Darkness which would be ideal for Twilight! Or even a game.


My partner started a train2game course approximately 9 months ago. Sadly his addiction to Xbox game playing has taken over his urge to finish this train2game course so I am looking into taking it over and doing it myself. The course looks scary as it needs maths and is extremely technical. However the good thing is my partner is creating music again and this is something he needs to continue with, a total bonus if I ever manage to do this games course myself. Maybe we can help each other as a team effort, my partner with his knowledge of creating great music and you with your technical game programming skills. What do you think? He is working very hard at the moment and long hours so I do understand that he needs to kick back and relax by escaping from the real hum drum world with his Xbox which takes him to another place. But maybe this is what he needs a little joint adventure that will showcase not only his musical ability but your animation skills too.

The music in the video below he created from scratch as he does with all his music. The little characters are based on our little girls designs. I asked her to draw some vegetable characters for me to learn Welsh and was amazed at her ability to come up with totally unique drawings that just make you want to smile. I turned them into plastic characters that can stand up.


My partner entered Britain's Got Talent. But did not get through because
they let so many bad acts on the show for a laugh! So many people tell him
he has an amazing voice, which he does. He even gets accused of not singing because he has such
outstanding vocal ability. Should he enter the voice? Who knows?
I personally think he should just create music for games as that is where the market is.
A bad act does not get on radio twice. He has had two radio interviews with his
original music. I am proud of him and feel the UK should support him.



It would be amazing if I could animate this story Colour me a fairies wish.
I have a famous man from Children's TV reading this story for me.
We were going to work together, but he has had to move to the USA.




Did you know that Moron is Welsh for carrot:





Anyway for anyone looking for original and amazing music for games or films get in touch.
My partner is the man when it comes to creating original music and songs
for your unique animated game or film!

Train2Game Course 3ds Max games animation



The video above is of TV Gadget Show's Suzi Perry talking about the world of Train2Game distance learning courses, with interviews from Richard Wilson of TIGA, Tony Bickley from DR Studios and Professor Carsten Maple from the University of Bedfordshire. Train2Game's Art and Animation course.  This course was available from 2010. So question is has anyone completed this course before the 3 year time scale?

Below you will see an image of a bathroom my partner created using 3ds Max game animation (Train2game course.) He was told the games course would cost him £5,000 in total. I now have the contract which is £4,960 he paid £100 enrolment fee. Payments are £135 a month. My partners addiction to Xbox game playing has replaced the urge to learn this gaming animation course. I know he is working very hard at the moment and long hours so I understand him wanting to kick back, relax and escape our real world and just play Xbox.  Question is has anyone completed this course and got a job?


When my partner wanted to do a Games Animation Course over 9 months ago to fit around his day job, I told him to research properly and make sure it is legit. He told me that 3ds Max is the top gaming and animation programme. I am asking is it? Sadly life has taught me that there are a lot of sharks on the Internet so you have to be careful. Sadly my partner prefers to believe that if something is on the Internet then it is the real thing. There have been some nasty comments saying this course is a scam. So I decided to investigate.
If you go to my other blog you will see that I checked with Companies House and I am currently requesting information from Direct Gov. I hope this Train2game course is legit as it offers people like me a little ray of sunshine after being under a dark cloud for too long. Having no qualifications does not mean you are worthless. And I for one did better in life when I left school and made my way up to MD's Secretary through sheer hard work. When your a child all you want to do is play games, a bit like my other half who is still playing little Xbox games, ha ha.

Little Snowflake sings Bats Flying High as Draculaura doll. The costume is all my own design and made by hand.


This is Lagoona Blues original costume I created with a fish theme.


And here is Draculaura dressed as the Butterfly Princess which is a character in my story book Butterfly Lullaby. Strange thing is that the Butterfly Princess turns into a Vampire Bat at night and drains her Mother the Queen Butterfly of all her energy. She is under a spell cast by the evil Prince Stinger.


Here is my little girl, Little Snowflake, drawing the Monster High three eyed frog (3 eyed frog) and showing you how to make a Monster High postcard.

Miley Cyrus Butterfly Lullaby fly away


The above video is a tribute to us Butterfly Lullaby with the Miley Cyrus song Butterfly fly away. Well guess what our butterfly came back! We grew five butterflies from caterpillars with the butterfly kit. Four we set free. One butterfly had a broken wing and sadly died the other day. But today when I was taking photographs of Draculaura modelling my dolls hair bobbles the painted lady butterfly appeared from nowhere. Here is Little Snowflake with Flamingo Butterfly our pet butterfly that had a broken wing and could not fly. Sadly he died the other day so she has made him a cross and we need to decide whether to bury him in the garden or keep him in the house?


Little Snowflake sets free four painted lady butterflies in our garden recently. This butterfly
kit brought joy to both of us, a truly inspiring nature watch.


Lastly here is Draculaura from Monster High with the butterfly that came back.
I think he is telling her she needs to change into a beautiful butterfly and leave her
vampire past behind! What do you think leave us a comment.

Dolls hair bobbles Monster High


Here is Draculaura talking about my little handmade hair bobbles:


When I was taking photographs of Draculaura modelling my handmade hair bobbles our real butterfly came back. See him in the picture below! Sadly he can no longer fly.


How would you like to learn to make dolls hair bobbles for your Monster High dolls, Bratz dolls and Barbie dolls? The butterfly Lullaby way? If I get enough interest I will upload a video on how to make dolls hair bobbles. When my friends visited us from London, Michelle gave my little girl another Monster High doll. And being a girl she wanted to put her dolls hair up in a ponytail, but Mummy forgot to bring hair bobbles with her. Anyway children's hair bobbles are too big for dolls hair they need thinner elastic.


So here is the finished video on how to make Monster High Dolls hair bobbles. You can use these bobbles for Barbie, Bratz dolls etc.



Judith said to me "Sharon I have a business idea for you, why don't you make dolls hair bobbles." I thought yes that would be a great idea but not something I could do from Ebay as the fees would eat all the profit for something so small. I had thought about dolls hair bobbles before. So how can I do this? Well the only way is Google so that is why I created the video and just pray for lots of video views. Here is a video of my little girl setting free our home grown butterflies. The same butterfly that visited this us this morning. Hm I will have to make a butterfly dolls hair bobble and others.


I think Draculaura wants to be a butterfly and not a vampire, what do you think?


If you like my videos and blogs please leave a comment below.
And here is the video on how to make Monster High Hair bobbles!

Fathers Day sad war song

My little girls Daddy is one talented singer songwriter and I would like to share this song he wrote about wars. The lyrics are catchy and unfinished. Do you think he should finish this war song for all fathers fighting in the war? Happy fathers day honey, one day America will find you and promote you.


Now I am going to be doing your 3ds Games animation course I will certainly be needing a gifted musician and music maker.

I hope one day our wars will all be game based so innocent men do not die and children do not lose their fathers. If only people sat down and talked to each other instead of fighting!

LYRICS TO WAR SONG BY DADDY - ON THE RUN IN THE SUN


Hmmmm Hmmmm Hmmmm
All my friends died in the war
Never got the chance to see Mumma at the door
On the run in the sun
Holding a gun
Never knew what they done

Women have more power than they think they have. If you would only believe in yourself and fight verbally for all our children like Aung San Suu Kyi. She is a true world leader one that cares about human life.
Too many people when asked why do they do nothing to change the world reply "what can I do?"
Just take a look at what this one women has achieved. And then seriously think about what can
we all do as a team of people fighting verbally for change for all our children!


If you care about your children's future get in touch and lets fight verbally together and get the respect our little girls deserve. Otherwise they will grow up and their children will  have no fathers either.

£1 butterfly stepping stones frog Pound shop

This week my little girl and I picked up some bargain Butterfly and Frog stepping stones from the £1 shop (Pound Shop.) We just love a bargain and could not believe the price. My  little girl and I adore butterflies and hope to one day have a special green house to breed all types of butterflies and set them free.

Painted Lady Butterfly garden stepping stone


Yellow Butterfly garden stepping stone. Have you ever seen a yellow butterfly?
We had one in the garden for the first time after planting lots of butterfly plants.


Holly blue butterfly garden stepping stone. My friend managed
to photograph a real Holly Blue Butterfly on our school field last year.
Came in handy when we were trying to save our butterfly meadow!


Just take a look at this gorgeous yellow butterfly in slow motion. WOW! I
wish I had a slow motion video camera. Can you imagine what amazing videos you could create!


Lastly here is my little girls favourite frog garden stepping stone for just £1!
We grew some frogs from tadpoles a few years ago.


Here is one of our frogs on his apple boat!


Well my daughters Daddy is asking where is my dinner! I really hope
that one day I can earn more than him and tell him to cook it himself, te he.
Who knows I may end up being a professional blogger.
Wish me luck with the 3ds Max animation course any support would be greatly appreciated.

Make money work from home Monster High dolls


I need some Mothers/Grandmothers to work with me creating Monster High dolls costumes from my patterns and selling them on Ebay. If you live in the Swansea, Wales, UK we could work together and split the profit. If you live overseas we could try and work something out. Here is my feedback so far on Ebay from selling the cobweb hat, bat wings and bat mask etc.

Ebay Feedback Monster High Costumes



My partner is paying for a 3ds Max animation course and sadly will not be finishing it so I feel I have no choice but to take it over as otherwise we will be throwing over £5,000 down the drain. Crazy Talk is a simple programme that children can use where you can animate pictures, dolls with voices. 3ds Max is a games animation programme. I cannot stand Xbox but this animation programme could help me animate Monster High Dolls with my Butterfly Lullaby story.


Lagoona Blue skirt, top, fish mask and fish wings!


Here is my Butterfly Lullaby fairy book and the costumes I created for Draculaura
who is the main star in my new story based on Monster High Dolls.




If you are a struggling Mother trying to earn a living from home, why not give this a try. If you live locally we can arrange to meet up and discuss. If you live overseas then where there is a will there is a way. Contact me on Facebook!

Monster High Animate your dolls

Did you know you can animate your Monster High dolls using Crazy Talk. It is a simple and easy animation programme that allows you to put your voice to your dolls character. Here is my little girl, Little Snowflake singing Bats flying High. It is based around a famous song, we just changed the lyrics to fit in with Draculaura.


I started making and selling my Monster High dolls costumes on Ebay. There is a market for it as I have sold the cobweb hats, bat wings and bat mask on Ebay with no problems. And other costumes for the other Monster High dolls. But to be honest this would suit someone who has time on their hands. I could do with an arty Mummy locally who could make them up from my patterns and just split the profit. Or maybe I should sell the templates? I adore these Monster High Dolls and if I could animate them using 3ds Max that would be brilliant as I wrote a script for Draculaura based on my Butterfly Lullaby fairy story.


Maybe I should create a tutorial on how to animate your Monster High Dolls? Leave me a comment!

I will leave you with some photographs of Draculaura dressed as the Butterfly Princess in my story, at night she changes into the Vampire Bat and drains her Mother of all her energy.

Crazy talk animation noisy toilet song

I wonder what this little singing toilet would look like made up using the 3ds Max game animation programme? Crazy Talk is just a fun easy to use animation programme that children can use. Here is my little girl singing her own made up song about the possessed noisy toilet in our house. Little Snowflake you are a star!



Wish me luck with learning 3ds Max game animation programme, as I am going to need it! If only it was easy to use like Crazy Talk then I would sail through it.

3ds Max human character head modelling from photo

I wonder how long it will take me to be able to create a human character head from two photographs. This 3ds Max tutorial on modelling a human head from photographic images is pretty amazing and well saving on my blog for future reference. Boy I know I am going to seriously struggle with this 3ds Max animation course, and it will cause many family arguments with the other half as I will be demanding his help and support which will annoy the heck out of him when he is busy playing his silly on line Xbox games. But I have to tell myself that I can do it and teach my little girl everything I pick up so she can leave school and maybe work for Disney or me, ha ha. A girl can dream right!


My partners is so going to wish he finished this 3ds Max course himself as I will be making his life rather difficult with demanding original music which he can create. This is going to be a real laugh.

Here is a song my partner created which would be just amazing for the Twilight Vampire Films. If you are creating games etc what music do you use?


I adore the Trash Pack music he created for us to show off the Fresh Pack characters my little girl created. Because I just simply adore her drawings I had to recreate them using plastic. What do you think? I wonder if one day I will be able to animate them. Would prefer to work with 2d as 3d is way too technical for my memory. But seeing as he is paying for the course monthly I have no choice. It is do the course myself or flush £5,000 down the toilet. £135 a month for a course is a lot of money so I will have to take this really seriously and try my best.


Hmm I wonder if I will ever manage to animate my story Butterfly Lullaby. Now that would be exciting!
I think I will close my eyes and dream for a while and imagine this scene animated where Feathers
the Wishing Well Fairy throws a penny in the Wishing Well and chants "wishing well, wishing well, take me their, take me to places without any care."


Would just like to say a huge thank you to England and Wales for their lack of support
with the Butterfly Lullaby project and not helping Mothers like me earn a living from home. 
Who knows one day we may get out of this hell  hole and find a Country that appreciates 
and promotes us as a family! Weymouth, Swansea and Cardiff, I am really sorry
I ever promoted you! But I will be the one laughing as I never give up or forget!

3ds Max animation tutorial 1 - Introduction

I found this 1st 3ds Max game animation tutorial on You Tube. I will study this well on Tuesday when my little one goes back to school.




Mummy take a big breath and say "I can do this stupid 3ds Max gaming course!" I hate on line games and Xbox with a passion, so why the hell am I going to try and do this 3ds Max animation course for on line gaming? Because I am a desperate struggling mother with a partner that has a serious addiction to on line games and this Mummy is sick of worrying about money and bills and living in a house that makes my little girls and my asthma bad. He is working extremely hard, but is self employed so it is important I have a proper income. And I understand the stresses he has been through with low paid salaries and that playing Xbox and games helps him escape from the real world. This home tutorial course for 3ds Max is costing over £5,000 that is £135 a month. That is a of a lot of money to throw down the drain. I knew deep down he would never finish this 3ds Max course. Men that play these silly games are high maintenance, but I guess if it was not games it would be Golf, Football, Rugby Snooker etc. At least he does not drink and smoke! And I have to say I am proud of him for all the hours he puts in at work and home as there is a lot of paper work so he does need to kick back and relax. So if playing silly Xbox is his thing then who am I to stop him.



MY FIRST EVER ANIMATION 

My first ever animation was for a story I created called Colour me a fairies wish. This story is a short version of my book Butterfly Lullaby where the fairies wings change colour. But of course the stories are very different. It is not the best animation in the world, but considering all I had to work with was Photoshop and a slide show it is not bad for a first effort. And having a famous man from children's TV reading my story was the icing on the cake.


CRAZY TALK ANIMATION

My little girl is brilliant at creating characters. Here is Moron the Welsh Carrot. I used Crazy Talk
for this animation. Would be interesting to see if I can create him using 3ds Max. I may hate on line games
but I would love to learn to animate properly! Just imagine the stories you could tell.


I created these plastic characters from my little girls character drawings.
Would be fab to create a game Trash Pack v Fresh Pack Vegetables and Fruit.


Any struggling mothers wanting to work from home and finding it difficult get in touch. Putting up and shutting up is not going to help our children's future!
