Video Blogging – Learn From Others

Now that you have decided that you will try your hand at implementing videos on your site; it’s time to do some research.  Before you roll your eyes, keep reading.  With some simple research by the way of the internet you will find ways to help you overcome the issues you may be experiencing with your videos.  Learning from others is far easier then attempting to do it all on your own.

Start by searching on various video sharing sites such as Youtube and Vimeo.  Both of these sites allow individuals to upload their videos then provide a code to embed onto your website.  Simply viewing some of those videos will give you some pointers that may help with your videos.  You may be surprised how viewing other people’s videos will help you.  For instance, you may notice that the audio is not very clear, or the lighting is too bright or not bright enough.  Making note of such items will help you with your videos.

Next you may want to visit the videos that get the most views, such as this video that recaps the television show Lost in 3 minutes.  If you noticed, the topic has much to do with the number of views as well as the length.  The lighting was good, and the individual in the video was looking into the camera, using props and using a language you could comprehend.

All those points are important to learn from other people’s videos and can certainly help you with your video creations.  So, now that you’ve done your homework and viewed several videos on topics that interested you, it’s your turn.  Choose a topic, a place where the video will take place and do it!  You will never be able to critique your video if you don’t make one.  If you still need guidance in making your videos the best they can be, be sure to visit my site at Ask Mr. Video where I share lots more information to get you moving in the right direction.
