What is a Vlog? Here is the official “google” definition: Short for “video blog.” A vlog is the video equivalent of a blog, most commonly featured on YouTube. Much like plain ol’ text blogs, these can range from the informative to the hysterical.
I will really work on making my vlogging hysterical, but for the first vlog attempt, it’s just you and me gabbing… well, kinda. I will admit, it felt a little awkward hiding in a corner of my church cafe talking to myself, but I got through it. When I showed my hubby the video to preview, he laughed (yes!) and encouraged me to keep vlogging, but to commit from start to finish. Honestly, I was nervous someone would come around the corner and catch me talking to myself and finally prove that I’m crazy!
3 things I need to improve on my next vlog:
- Get better lighting so I don’t look green(ish) like Elphaba in Wicked.
- Sit back a little further from the screen so I don’t cut off my eyebrows.
- Add a variety of adjectives. Can you guess how many times I say the word “incredible” ?
I haven’t picked an official vlog day, but for now … let’s make it a weekly surprise. My hubby will be my first vlogger guest and share an incredible story from his mission trip. What topics do you want me to vlog about … any suggestions?
