🦇These First Questions Need Your Answers🦇

Okay everyone! Here are the first batch of questions that need your answers. ICYMI, this is something we’re issuing for the next several months. Several participants issued a video on their Instagram asking if anyone had questions, and we got some good ones!
As per Ailee’s suggestion (because there were so many and we didn’t want to limit anyone’s answer time) I’ve categorized the questions and the first batch is ready to be answered.
WHAT I NEED FROM YOU: Please make sure that if you are recording with your phone, turn the phone sideways. I failed to mention that and I don’t want poor Ethan to redo it again because he gave incredible answers and demonstrations. You DON’T have to answer this round of questions. Or you can answer them all or one. It’s up to you! Whatever you feel you know the most about. I need you to create a video of you STATING THE QUESTION SO I KNOW WHERE TO EDIT YOUR VIDEO and then answering the question. There is no time limit. If I see “uhhhhs” and “umms” and brief pauses, I’ll simply edit those out
PLEASE TRY TO GET THESE VIDEOS TO ME AS SOON AS YOU CAN! I will give until Sunday, October 13th, for your video submission. They do not have to be perfect. Just have good lighting, no excess noise, and please sit close to the camera so we can see your face and hear you clearly
Email your videos to [email protected]
OKAY! Answer these questions!
*How to sweep pick?
*Good ways to practice techniques? I can stand up and jam to songs I have learned but I find it really hard to practice technique.
*How do I move my fingers faster?
*Is the secret to sweep picking drinking water from a goblet with a straw?
*When you sweep pick and the high E string has three notes do you alternate pick or pull off for example the wicked end?
*Confused whether to stick with economy picking and improve it or do strictly alternate picking?
*I’m not that new to guitar, but I am a total down strummer. What is the best way to practice alternate strumming while moving between strings?
Have fun, guys and dolls!

It’s entirely up to you! If you want to just send one video I can cut and edit the question separately. Just make sure that you state the question before each time you change so I know where it is
Also I feel bad I should have said this, make sure you have your video horizontally. I’m editing my post to make sure people know this beforehand. But make sure you turn your phone sideways so it takes a wide screen look
