Vlogging

Hello possible readers! In this blog post i'll be sharing my thoughts about vlogging! (That is video blogging!)

Now where to start? I guess i'll just go ahead and say that I am a BIG fan of vlogging. I am absolutely in love with the idea of it! Whether it's daily vlogs, every other day vlogs, or weekly vlogs; i'll enjoy it. Years ago (Like 2008) I discovered a Youtuber 'SMPFilms' who did short films and I have always been a huge fan of him. Then in about 2010 or 2011 a friend of his named Kate 'Katersoneseven' began vlogging her everyday life as she moved in to his home (coming from England to California) and vlogged for about 2 years straight till she broke the streak and now vlogs less but still bits and pieces from everyday.

I just fell in love with the idea of recording everything that happens in your life. It is such a brilliant idea and I've always felt inspired to do so but I do not have any time to do daily vlogs considering I have college work, youtube videos, social life, and video games already consuming my life. I also lack a camera that can record and I don't feel my life is interesting enough to keep a dedicated audience (Seriously, every day I wake up, go to class, eat food, and sit at my computer). To those that do vlog everyday I applaud you because that is some serious dedication. On my channel I have done some vlog style update videos which I enjoy. I feel they are more intimate than just hearing a voice over some background game play, and it gives the viewers the pleasure of seeing exactly who it is they are watching gameplay videos from.

I enjoy being a fan of a lets player and trying to picture who they are as a person and then finally you see their face and you’re just like ‘…That is not how I pictured you at all’ the closest I was though was with slyfoxhound, my mental image of him was actually really close to how he really looks. I wonder though, how do people picture me before watching a video where I vlog myself? (Hopefully hot with lots of muscles).

Would I like to have a vlogging channel? Definitely. Will I ever make one? It is way too soon to tell but my girlfriend and I have always talked about maybe making one together and maybe someday we will, who knows? I think if I ever quit lets playing, I may consider vlogging but I don’t think I will be quitting lets playing anytime soon. I’m already trying to purchase a stronger computer, so I can record and upload better content. Currently working towards partnership (curse you Adsense!!! Just kidding, don’t hurt me) and hopefully within two years I can be a big shot Youtuber! For now I am happy where I am at.

What are your thoughts on vlogging? Would you ever do it?

Thanks again anybody who read this blog, I’m probably not too exciting so thank you!
