It's Fun to Play the Piano ... Please Pass It On!
This is a rubato version of Softly as a Morning Sunrise. It's unrehearsed 1st take, recorded first internally on AG N2, then I used Zoom Q3HD to record it live.
I didn't use much sustain pedal and is open enough to hear AG's strengths and short comings, not to mention mine
I just can't get into a "performance" where the player isn't there and I'm just watching an inert keyboard. Can't you just make the same recording with you actually playing?

It was just an easy way to record it. There's plenty of static videos at YouTube. I need to get the patch chords, so i can record directly from the piano. Right now the camera/mics would be at the wrong spot to record the audio
I tried to put the camera/mics in a spot that would be where the player would hear the instrument.
That's a possibility. Another is to record yourself with the video camera and save the audio file separately, then use the recorded audio file to replace the audio track in the video. I've done that. It was super easy and the results were great. The only hassle is starting it in the right place so it syncs up but I found that I can be off by a bit and it still looks great.
The camera mic audio isn't good enough to depict the difference between the player position and another perspective.
All things considered, if you change your objective people would (I would at least) enjoy seeing your hands perform a song even if the audio is not very good.
I think I got what there was to get out of your first video.
The next mountain to climb is seeing the live performance.

You're probably right, going with the same idea twice wasn't very creative and so close in days. It was fun while it lasted
