What is Vlogging? (VIDEO)

April 26, 2017 by Katie Curtis

So you don’t have to watch me ramble for 2 1/2 minutes, vlogging is just a video blog. Instead of reading the content, you are watching it.

Most vlogs take place using a computer webcam or in a situation that LOOKS like a computer’s webcam, but sometimes the person is on site, narrating something. You’ll find a lot of vlog style videos on Youtube.

For a small business to get into vlogging, I recommend you find some nice lighting (like by a window) and share a bit about who you are, what you do and why you do it! Then, if you have any frequently asked questions, you can make any number of vlogs addressing those issues, or a plethora of others.

Once you’ve made your own vlog, link it down below so I can check it out!

Happy Editing!

I promise your shoot day does NOT need to look lik I promise your shoot day does NOT need to look like one perfect take after another 😂

Most of the time, the first few minutes are just everyone settling in, getting used to the camera, and figuring out what feels natural.

And personally, I’d much rather leave room for that than have someone spend the whole shoot worried about getting everything right.

So come as you are. We’ll get there.

Different industries, different teams, completely different ways of doing things and somehow I always walk away having noticed something I can apply to my own business too.
 
I guess spending this much time behind the scenes of other people’s businesses will do that to you. Very grateful I get to call this work.

I also got the sweetest testimonial from FHD’s Chief Executive, which was such a lovely surprise! Always grateful when clients take the time to share kind words about working together. Definitely made the sweaty shoot day worth it.

It felt surreal to film for @spicerorchards as I grew up going to this Orchard. And while they knock it out of the park with their fall attractions, they're actually open year-round and have delicious treats and fun activities all year! (Christmas Train to see Santa anyone?)
 
If you get a chance, go visit them for some pick-your-own and to see all the awesomeness they have going on there.
