I saw a beast of a Sony camcorder at the thrift shop yesterday...definitely was from the 80's. This timeline is pretty interesting -https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/CorporateInfo/History/sonyhistory-f.html....we've come a long way indeed!

Camcorder style! There’s something magical about vlogging with a camcorder to me. I picked up an early 2000’s Handycam a few months back and it's been a blast! While I do have a "newer" 2017 Handycam I still like the old ones because they were small, cute, and the video quality was horrible, but perfectly nostalgic. Thoughts on camcorders?

definitely planning to do more themed vlogging this year!

just updated to the 24-70 GM II and i'm super glad I made the investment! saying goodbye to my old 24-70 was a bit heartbreaking tho 😞

I love vlogs that have no talking, just captions. It feels like you’re reading a book and watching a movie at the same time ( I'm not a big book reader, but I can read captions all day!) Of course, throwing some type of chill music behind it is needed but it's great to show your thoughts in different ways. What do you think about vlogging in this way?

Curious...why dropbox over google drive? -
I'm always finding the most unplanned, minimal effort-type of videos end up doing the best. It's kind of disheartening when you pour your heart and soul into something and have a good feeling about how it will be received, only to see the view count on it be low, but these are the uncontrollable truths of being a creator, right? Glad to hear you're repurposing a ton of content !

great to hear your perspective on this!

I would definitely agree that people are watching us for us!

Vlogs tend to be less SEO friendly because so much is going on in ea. video. Do you vlog with a keyword in mind? If so, do you find that limits you on creativity?

LEVERAGING gear or trending topics in VLOGS...

great tips! -
I used to want a bunch of hyphy footage, gimbal movement and just a bunch of camera movement in general, but lately I've been Inspired by the still life. This is typically a vlog style that's shot on a tripod with very well composed framing. I find that the less movement there is, the more calm the video feels and I'm loving that. Do calming vlogs shot in this way appeal to you?

I've looked into a NAS system forever. I think it's time to finally take the plunge. Thanks for confirming! -
POV is always exciting!

I love this! what's her account?

Currently everything is shoved in my Gdrive, but I'm wondering if local storage and local backup is better than constantly upgrading storage. I'm one to NOT delete anything so, just curious what everyone is doing for their file management?
-
This is a great suggestion on workflow, Thank you for sharing!
-
writing the story is the most important part indeed (and often the hardest)! thanks for the advice 🙏
-
good idea! I never dump footage though, I'm somewhat of a hoarder in the digital world lmao
-
I've been enjoying S&Q more these days so I can have the simplest pleasure of seeing what I shot in slomo and going "oOOOOooooOo...got it!" 😂
-
Shooting things is easy...the hard part is dumping all the footage and editing it. I've built up a fairly large archive of vlog footage that often times, takes forever to file manage and ends up going to waste because I feel like it's "outdated" by the time I'd post it. What are your thoughts about old vlog footage that you've never posted? Do you still work on it, or just move on to more relevant stuff you've shot?

Vlogs have traditionally been low priority for my content release, but lately I've been thinking it should move up the totem pole. I feel like future clients can get a better sense of your workflow and who you are, if you have more vlog content up, so vlogs could be a good thing for marketing yourself. Where do you prioritize vlogs in your content?
