Get Your Vlog On

Hey Fabulous People! Thanks for being so patient and understanding last week. It was a crazy, nutty week. A lot of you have asked exactly what it is that I’ve been up to – and without revealing too much information – let’s just say I had a really “big” audition last week (and NO it wasn’t for Oprah’s reality show).  I can’t give any more details until they make a decision but as soon as I find out the outcome – I’ll update y’all:) In the meantime, keep those prayers coming. I need it!

Okay, so this is a week late but the top pick for last week’s “Get Your Vlog ON” goes to the lovely and talented Lorraine of AskWifey! I was lucky enough to meet Lorraine at the EVO Conference last month when she showed up in the first row of our Vlogging panel. She’s absolutely gorgeous and has the most radiant smile:)  Anyway, she just started vlogging and this video is what I call a “vlog diary.” Lorraine talks about training for marathon and how she finds time to squeeze in training even in the midst of juggling the family.

Now it’s time to link up your favorite vlog post of this week. Remember, I’m not looking for perfection I’m looking to build a community of video gals who enjoy expressing themselves thru vlogging. If you want to sing, dance, cook or clean – go for it! And don’t forget, every week I’ll pick one vlog to feature later in the week here at Lizziebtv.com.

Here’s what to do:

• Link up your favorite vlog of the week
• PLEASE be sure to link back here in your own blog. In fact, please feel free to use my “Get Your Vlog On” button!!
• Leave a comment.  If you’d like vlogging tips on your video – just ask in the comments

Get Your Vlog On – on Summer Break!!!

Hey guys, I hate to do this but this week is kicking my arse! No time for Get Your Vlog On or any new vlog posts until I deal with some personal matters. Don’t worry – nothing health related. Everyone is happy and healthy here. I’m just not at liberty to talk about the matters right now. Just do me a favor and cross your fingers and say a prayer:) Thanks!

xoxo,

How To Vlog: What Kind of Video Camera to Use

Whenever I talk to people about learning how to video blog one of the first questions they ask is “what’s the best video camera to use.” If you’re just starting out I suggest using one of the many different mini hd video cameras on the market. The mini cameras are small, easy to use and come with a u-s-b port that you can plug right into your computer to make uploading video a snap.

I’ve been using the Kodak ZI8 since it came out last year and am a huge fan of it. It’s super duper easy to use and you can buy a memory card with lots of recording space. But I think one of the coolest features of the ZI8 is the external microphone input. Which means you can buy a plug in mic and really improve the sound quality of your video interviews.

Get Your Vlog On

Hey, I’ve been thinking about making a little change to the Get Your Vlog on meme and would love your feedback. How would you feel about suggesting a theme or topic in the comments and then we all vlog about the same thing? Just to mix things up this week? Yes, no, maybe? I’ve been inspired by all the creativity by you new vloggers and thought it might be fun to have a lip sync vlog challenge? Or a dance off? Or interview your spouse? Hummmm, what do you think? Please let me know in the comments.

Okay, this week my favorite vlog pick goes to the lovely Alexis of DepressionsandConfessions. Alexis is a new vlogger and some how talked her hubby into sitting down in front of the video camera and answering a few random questions. The discussion between them had me grossed out and laughing all at once.

Now it’s time to link up your favorite vlog post of this week. Remember, I’m not looking for perfection I’m looking to build a community of video gals who enjoy expressing themselves thru vlogging. If you want to sing, dance, cook or clean – go for it! And don’t forget, every week I’ll pick one vlog to feature later in the week here at Lizziebtv.com.

Get Your Vlog On

I’m still playing catch up after my fabulous three day weekend in Park City, Utah so I’m gonna keep it short. It’s Wednesday folks and that means it’s time to show off all your vloggy skills with the rest of the us folks. I’m crossing my fingers and toes that there will be lots of new faces this week especially after we handed out 10 brand new Kodak ZI8 video cameras at the vlogging panel at the EVO10 Conference (thank you Kodak)! I can’t remember all of the winners but I do know Lorraine of AskWifey, Gina of TheMorrisBrunchBlog and Jen from NakedJen all took home new video cameras (that’s right girls I’m calling you out – pressure is on).

This week’s “Get Your Vlog On” favorite goes to one of my vloggy pals who’s been linking up just about every week. And every week she surprises me. Some times Alexes of PonderingsofaCrazyMama vlogs in her bathroom or belts out a tune and as you’ll see down below – she even dances! I haven’t been brave enough to do a “dancing” vlog but that’s because I’m scared to see how bad I really look dancing.

Now it’s time to link up your favorite vlog post of this week. Remember, I’m not looking for perfection I’m looking to build a community of video gals who enjoy expressing themselves thru vlogging. If you want to sing, dance, cook or clean – go for it! And don’t forget, every week I’ll pick one vlog to feature later in the week here at Lizziebtv.com.
