I won't actually seen in the video... just my hands. D : I'll just be explaining what I'm doing.
... I don't fucking get why that's difficult, but it is.

SO SOMEONE EITHER BRING ME SOME BOOZE OR GIVE ME A PEP TALK.
I say use a hand puppet for the dialog filmed at a later time and edit it in

Talk as if the pedal had a deep dark secret that you know about, but the pedal doesn't know you know about, and you know the pedal doesn't know this.

write out what you want to say. it can be word-for-word, a few key phrases, or an outline. practice running through the sequence a few times so you have a good feel for what comes next. and forget about the camera, particularly about looking at the camera; if your face isn't going to be in the video, you don't have to face the camera. put a microphone somewhere off-camera, or use an omnidirectional mic...then you can face the stuff you're actually doing without distraction. and don't worry if you sound like a dork...everybody that does demos sounds like a dork. just don't try to compete with Gearmandude's shoes, and you'll be OK.

I really enjoyed this. Even though he was drinking wine from a brandy snifter. Not classy.
IT IS NOT QUAFFABLE!!!
But really spunkface get yourself loaded up on grain alcohol then give a slurred, rambling explanation of why your baby's momma no longer loves you/something to do with pedals.
