My research thus far

Okay, so I've been doing some research on the whole online cooking thing and here's what I think:
I got this. None of the videos for college cooking I've found are that good. Either that or they just stop after the first video and they are done. There is one guy who consistently makes videos that are okay, but his cooking ability appears to be flawed. And all these people are in college, so their time ends up getting busy around certain times in the semester, so they have to quit and they just never get back into it. My plan is to make a bunch of videos at once as well as some consistently through the year so that if I get too busy or sick or anything like that, I can still post videos.
There is one thing holding me back before I can get started when I plan to, and that's a good camera. Hopefully I'll get one for Christmas so I can get a head start on making videos next summer and show them next fall.


What I'm trying to figure out is what sort of things I show people how to cook. It has come to my attention that some people are absolutely clueless when it comes to cooking, which is okay, because if they were good at it, I'd have to reason to make these videos, right? If anything, I hope as few people as possible know anything about the subject. Well, I want people to know how to work a pot and/or a pan. Boiling water wouldn't be a bad skill to have either. Okay, so only on certain occasions will I dumb down my directions to the mentally-challenged cooking level.

My dad says I should have a health bar for the videos that's an artery that's clear if it's a healthy meal and clogged if it's not. It's a funny idea. My dad is cooler than yours.
