Here it is! The very first episode of Zoomin.TV Games presents "Tara Talks"!

This episode is about Zerg HotS units and gaming news!

On Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/1bz8jq/tara_talks_ep_1_zerg_hots_units_and_gaming_news/



ABOUT TARA TALKS

I'm now collaborating with Zoomin.TV Games (a YouTube channel with over 300,000 subs) too bring little StarCraft II tips and gaming news to a mainstream gaming audience. I am on a mission to help new players get into competitive SC2 gaming!
I give the news, let people know what I think, then I relay a small StarCraft tip that I wrote with the help of high-level friends, and gameplay I recorded (for the most part).
God, the first episode's editing was a BITCH! I hope you guys enjoy the content!

Thank you! Working on getting some serious content out there so I have an "eSports portfolio", so to speak, to prove that I can conduct myself in a professional manner as well. Should be a shoe-in after that!

With this company I will be working interviews at E3 as well as Gamescom and possibly the Tokyo Game Show!

Agreed, we have seen pretty girls get such roles without any knowledge or love of E-Sports but you have all of that in droves.

Yeah I won't even lie when u posted first articles I was a bit sketcky. Thought ya might just be using games for publicity.
Like reading my girlfriend's mags she leaves in the toilet sometimes.
But recently been stumbling into your content and finally with this video i can support your stuff. I mean this has to be one of the more engaging mixedgames+sc2 video that actually explains to noobs how they would use the HOTS stuff, so pretty cool.

PS. co-signing on the host job, seen too many tournaments hire hosts who are nice to look at and ok on the mic but know NOTHING about the game. Would be a nice change to see them hire people from inside the community who know the game inside and out.

This is an amazing initiative Tara. YouTube is the way A LOT of new people have been brought into the scene (HD and Husky) and this just expands that to a new audience. Great work.

That is incredibly rude dude. Curiosity doesn't excuse being an obvious dick.

Do I really need to point out pornography involves nudity/sexual acts? Risque model, not pornographer. Jeez.

OT: I'm surprised you didn't try this earlier. You have very smooth delivery and I'd guess you have previous experience with talking in front of a camera. Maybe you just did a lot of takes though. :p

My main complaint was the writing in the first part. You repeated "not up to par" a few times and used "did not do well" to describe commercial success. After that, it improved as you moved into a more conversational and relaxed style.

I think you need to refine your style more as you are mixing personal commentary with news. The fact that you are standing up and have a fancy schmancy background makes me think that you are a news show like REMAG, however, you frequently also discuss your personal opinions in a casual way, making me think that you are an editorialist like Dodger. I think you can do both in the same show, but you need to make it more clear when you are shifting from news reporting to editorializing. I think Force does an excellent job with this, using cutaways to video for news and him with a real life background for his commentary.
I'm not stupid, a marauder just shot my brain.

No... she has actually done pornography videos and nude photo shoots. Google is your friend.

Anyway this thread is being derailed. I was asking an honest question and people immediately jump on me for it because they don't know what they're talking about but assume I'm just a dick for implying that a girl does porn.

I think I remember watching her on stream stating that she has never done anything nude so anything you see f her nde is photoshopped. I could be wrong.

I feel like if she has done porn someone would have mentioned it before as she has gotten plenty of flak for also being a model.

Regardless, this thread is about her new show, Tara Talks. Its funny you mention the thread being derailed as if that wasn't your intent as you had to know it would cause a reaction. If you didn't want to derail the thread then you wouldn't have, whether or not op has done porn has nothing to do with the thread.
