Ok so after much procrastination I finally am on the road to being an amateur youtube caster.
I got my fraps going, I got my compression stuff sort of figured out and I have my first video already uploaded although it's really just a skeleton of what I have planned to come.
What I need now is REPLAYS!
So if you've ever wanted someone to cast one of your games and put it on youtube send it to me and I just might.
I do have a few things to ask though. When you send me your replay please include with it some information of what I'm going to be watching, IE: the league, the map, the match up and most importantly how long it is. I'm discovering now that time is gigabytes when it comes to posting youtube videos so if you're going to send me a 40 minute game, at least include with it an explanation of why it'll be worth someone watching.
Also it wouldn't hurt if you included with it any sort of thoughts you might have about the game.
My preferred method for TL users to send me replays is via PMs so it's easy to keep track of and doesn't clutter up the blog responses. Thanks again for all of the support guys.

Because I'd rather people volunteer them to me and be aware of when I post them.
It isn't as though there aren't replays out there I can find but I'd rather cast first people that want to be cast before going and just stealing random replays.
Plus also because I'll be looking for feedback on the videos when I post them, and I'm more likely to get feedback from those being casted.
This was from previous season, but it was a pretty funny game from Playhem, me vs ePGimix. He is current #28 GM on NA, was higher before . It's a special tactics type build that my roommate and I at the time did (both GM lol, fun starcraft room). http://www.sc2replays.eu/show-replay-12411-0-epgimix_t_-vs-revaps_p.html

I thank you sir!
I'll repost the video probably in this blog, and I'll PM you a link personally. No timeline for when it'll be done though, since it is MLG weekend.
The replays are long games, short games, wins and losses. The games are gm level I added some games with famous names like me vs hasuobs, dragon, merz, lzgamer, attero etc. to help you get recognition.
I sadly don't have so many tough as I don't save often
I've got a few gems for you, I use very interesting tactics. I kind of developed my own style of protoss I am only diamond, but a few of these are against masters players. Some BM and the game on Shakurus was particularly good if I recal correctly. One of the games vs terran on shattered was really good as well.You should find all the games very entertaining and interesting, ENJOY! (I use shield upgrades a lot too, they are very good when you use air units and cannons as much as I do.)

No to the first, of course to the second.
The simple reason no to the 2v2 is because I honestly have no idea how i would go about casting that. Everything I know about casting comes from watching and listening to 1v1s being cast. I suppose I could make an effort to learn to cast team games but it isn't something I'm even remotely familiar with.

Right now I only have my first test video which is not of the quality I want to brag about.
When I have videos to share the link will be available in this blog. There isn't any point posting my youtube channel because there's nothing on it yet.
This is a video cast more to help put the spotlight on the 6m 1hyg trend than anything else, working on sifting through some of the replays you guys have sent me, I really appreciate it.
And yes I know, my observing needs work, I have a tendency to jerk the camera around. I'm working on getting better at that.
You have a lot of "dead" time in your cast, if you're not doing play-by-play and there isn't too much going on, go a little more into analysis. You don't have to talk EVERY SECOND but there shouldn't be that much dead time.

As I've mentioned already. I'm still getting accustomed to solo casting, I know there's dead time in the cast and I'd like to work on that.
