Well, I have to start somewhere. I’ve been doing the spider walk for a while, but this is me trying the ‘fingers close to the fretboard’ G major scale exercise. Just putting it here with a view to reposting in a month and seeing if there’s a difference.
Or not. It won’t allow me to upload an .mp4 file from my phone. 
You can’t directly upload from your phone to the community plattform. You’ll have to upload your videos on a platform like YouTube or SoundCloud and share a link.
Or share a link to a Dropbox, etc. file.
That makes sense - thanks.
OK, still haven’t investigated using YouTube to host video shorts of my progress, but it’s on my weekend to-do list. I have re-connected with my old guitar teacher - not that he’s old, you know what I mean - for live lessons every fortnight. We’ve hit on “Satisfaction” by The Rolling Stones as my first ‘learn by heart’ piece. Not my favourite as bands go, but apparently it’s got lots of techniques to then transfer to other songs. And I get to play with my Fuzz pedal, I guess.
Finally worked it out 
G major ‘fingers close to the fretboard’ exercise. Really just for comparison so I can check again in a month and see some progress.
Hi Scott ,
Because you don’t specifically ask for feedback 
:, I’m not going to say 
that the most important thing is to sound the note clean and even during the scales exercises …so slow it down 
…
Have fun practicing and it’s great that you post(and able to post ) a first video 
, you will often look back on it with great pleasure,
Greetings
Yes, when I watched it back I thought I should re-do it slower and more cleanly, then I figured that was cheating 
The fact that you realized this after seeing it is great … I hope more will read this …that is exact the point of recording yourself …
12 points for still posting the video 
Greetings
Well done for posting this. It has two benefits. The first is , as you say, you can compare this later. I found that VERY useful to me in the past. The second benefit is other beginners see that not everyone is an expert. We all started at the bottom and worked up.
Re the notes, I concur, start slowly.
