> *NOTES:*
> - Remember - USE HEADPHONES!

> - If you use a separate audio recorder, remember that we want to get

> video files).
> - Another option to record video is Quicktime Pro if you have it on your
> computer. Open Quicktime and select File - New Movie Recording & hit the
> RED record button
> - A final option is that we can record over a ZOOM call. Get in touch with
> Vic and we can arrange a time.
> - All files should be emailed to Vic at victorgeemail at gmail.com
