CassioBlog 2 – The Fish Synth
So you want to build your own synth? But you know nothing about music, soldering, or laser-cutting… well you came to the right place! Welcome to the Fish Synth Docs… a step by step tutorial for the Fish Synth! It comes with a strap so you can take your awesome synth on-the-go with you to all your events!
It comes with one dial, buttons to control the sounds, and a keyboard! It also has a plug that can connect pedals to your synth to create a daisy-chain effect!

PROJECT VIDEO STRUCTURE
The issue I had with most of the videos is that they would explain without showing what they are talking about, or the video would just show the building process. I wanted to combine these two video styles.
1. Show All Materials Laid Out and Overlay Final Product
(HAVE BREADBOARD AND EVERYTHING CLEARLY IN FRAME)
2. Have DIY Music Playing in Background
3. Start with Introduction and Explain all Materials
4. Explain each step in detail and have graphics on the video as well
5. Put all the separate parts together
6. Show Final Product
7. Outro
Intro -> Show Materials -> 1 Min Quick Sped Up Building -> Dive into Explanation -> Show Final Product -> Outro
