Indy Mogul Live - TDKR, Cinemas & Cameras

Indy Mogul had a very interesting live chat video yesterday. The video stars the two main hosts of Indy Mogul at the moment, Griffin Hammond and Russel Hasenauer, along with Golden Pigeon Productions presenter Jacob Junbao. Discussions within this live video include TDKR (The Dark Knight Rises). Also Jacob Junbao works in a UK cinema, he shares some of the specifications of how films are projected nowadays compared to the past when film was shown on film, unlike the digital ways now. The live show also gives Indy Mogul viewers the opportunity to have their questions answered, and one of my questions was answered very well in this episode. I asked how I could edit two different frame rates together in one video project, for example 60fps with my GoPro and 24fps with my Canon 600D, and the reply was that I could edit both together with no issues. So thanks to Indy Mogul for answering that for me, I do really appreciate it.

YouTube are accepting my monetisation requests again?

I have had monetisation on my YouTube videos for around one year now, and I used to have no problem getting adverts next to my videos, mainly due to the fact that I own the rights to everything that I upload to my channel (with a few exceptions with soundtracks I use). For around half a year now, YouTube have not been accepting any of my monetisation requests on my videos, and the ones that weren't getting declined just sat there saying 'under review', until I cancelled monetisation on that video. It was getting very frustrating, and I was losing all of the motivation that I had gained to uploading my original content and cinematography videos onto my media channel 'RedSpectrumPictures'.

Well good news! I was randomly trying to monetise a video today that I have had uploaded for a few weeks, and I checked my 'Video Manager' and amazingly YouTube had accepted the request straight away, and it had adverts next to that video. I then decided to request monetisation on all of my videos that had been declined or under review in the past, and again YouTube accepted them for monetisation. I really don't understand what went wrong, I have looked on forums and on Google and have found others had this problem. I just thought I would share my story, so others can also see they are not alone with this. I had a feeling this may have had something to do with YouTube allowing monetisation on any account?

Just as an example, I have embedded one of the videos that they accepted earlier today. It is also a video I haven't shared on my blog before, it is a rack focus test on the Canon 50mm F/1.8 II prime lens.
