One of the best examples of this new age of content creation can be found on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/how-to-create-successful-youtube-videos\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">YouTube<\/a> with millions of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/best-cameras-for-vlogging\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">video bloggers<\/a> (or Vloggers) creating quality content on a wide scope of topics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those interested in starting a vlog for the first time, or perhaps just looking to further hone your on-the-go vlogging skills, dive into this guide to making run-and-gun video blog content\u2014ideally for YouTube and social media channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-find-your-style-and-format\"><span id=\"find-your-style-and-format\">Find Your Style and Format<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mgy-C2Zk0eg?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, before we go into camera overviews and gear recommendations, you\u2019ll want to decide on the style and format for your vlog first and foremost. Obviously, not all vlog videos are the same, but many of them do share similarities. You want your vlog to stand out, so I recommend watching a good deal of vlog videos\u2014specifically within your content or niche\u2014to understand the lay of the land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From there, you have some decisions to make at the beginning. How professional do you want your videos to be? Do you want to be on camera the whole time or behind the camera? Will <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/shooting-interviews-one-person-crew\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">interviews<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/recording-better-narration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">voiceover<\/a>, or <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/5-considerations-adding-text-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">text<\/a> provide the majority of the information? Do you want to only shoot yourself in a controlled environment at home or in a studio? Or, do you want to capture yourself organically out in the field?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you\u2019ve asked all these questions, it\u2019s helpful to outline a template of sorts for your videos. This will include your standard introduction, the crux of your video format, and a standard outro that includes all your call-to-actions (CTAs) or anything else you want your viewers to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can see a lot of examples of these decisions in the video above, which outlines <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/create-travel-videos-that-stand-out\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">how to make a travel video that really stands out<\/a>. From the set on-camera intro, to the different <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/shooting-video-start-to-finish\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">types of shots<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/create-dynamic-video-editing-montages\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">montages<\/a>, you can see how all these styles and looks are perfect for the video&#8217;s niche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-picking-the-right-gear\"><span id=\"picking-the-right-gear\">Picking the Right Gear<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3BFOxfgn-MY?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the style and format that you\u2019ve decided on from above, you\u2019ll now be able to pick the right camera and gear for your vlog. Since most vlogs are intended solely for online distribution on social media channels like <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/make-money-with-youtube-videos\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">YouTube<\/a>, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/tips-create-facebook-video-ads\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Facebook<\/a>, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/vimeo-mobile-shooting-editing-app\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Vimeo<\/a>, etc., you don\u2019t really need to break the bank for the high-end <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/z-cam-affordable-cinema-cameras\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">cinema cameras<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, I recommend focusing on your needs and the types of shots that you\u2019ll want to get. Below are three recommendations for cameras from our list of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/best-cameras-for-vlogging\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">the best and most affordable cameras for vlogging<\/a> roundup. These three run the gamut from least expensive and most accessible, up toward the most professional for high-end production needs that are still in line with this social video format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dji.com\/osmo-pocket\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">DJI Osmo Pocket<\/a>: $369<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.usa.canon.com\/shop\/en\/catalog\/eos-m50-body-black\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Canon EOS M50<\/a>: $649<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.panasonic.com\/cameras-and-camcorders\/cameras\/lumix-interchangeable-lens-ilc-cameras\/DC-GH5KBODY.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Panasonic GH5<\/a>: $1,299<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From there, you\u2019ll want to make the rest of your gear purchases based off of your primary camera and needs. If you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/solo-video-shoot-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">shooting solo<\/a> and want to be on-camera for the majority of the time, you\u2019ll want to look into some swivel head <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/gimbal-smartphone-filmmaking-accessory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">gimbals<\/a>, as well as cameras with flip out screens (or attaching a monitor to your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/best-video-camera-lenses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">small camera rig<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For lighting, you might be able to get away with <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/blog\/lighting-tips-guide-photography\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">natural light<\/a> when out in the field for most online videos. However, keep at least one or two battery-powered <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/blog\/types-of-lighting-film-set\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">LEDs<\/a> on you in case you\u2019d like to make any of your shots nicer. Remember, when you&#8217;re working on the run, you want to work fast, yet stay in control. Taking a few minutes to make sure your shots are literally in their best light won&#8217;t hurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For all the technical setups and gear that you might want to consider, this article is a perfect primer on a true <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/videography-guide-vlogging\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">videographer\u2019s guide to vlogging<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-challenges-of-audio\"><span id=\"the-challenges-of-audio\">The Challenges of Audio<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KazIRuDuUxo?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moving on to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/9-things-check-recording-audio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">audio<\/a>. I wouldn\u2019t recommend relying on your camera for sound. Even in the most run-and-gun of settings, you\u2019ll want at least some sort of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/what-microphone-should-i-use\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">lapel (or lav) microphone<\/a> or <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/blog\/booms-lavs\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">shotgun mic<\/a>. Audio quickly becomes a problem when shooting out in the field and on the run. Anything from wind to background construction noises can cause an entire shoot to be lost if you don\u2019t plan to mitigate any annoying audio hindrances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to finding a solid <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/remove-the-boom-mic-in-resolve-and-premiere\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">boom<\/a> and lapel setup, I also recommend looking into windscreens or windshields for your microphones as a precaution, but not a solution. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/good-sound-design-for-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Good audio<\/a> will come from understanding your environment and making smart decisions on how to avoid bad situations. If you can, always position yourself and your shot to block off as much wind as possible. Also, pick your battles. If you know audio in the field is going to be a huge issue, pivot to adding in more audio later through voiceover or other creative alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check out these audio recording options and resources, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/record-indie-filmmaking-audio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">The Indie Filmmaker\u2019s Guide to Recording Audio<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/how-to-capture-high-quality-audio-for-low-budget-films\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How to Capture High Quality Audio for Low Budget Films<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/7-tutorials-editing-audio-film-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">7 Tutorials About Editing Audio in Your Film and Video Projects<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/tutorial-removing-audio-pops-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Tutorial: Removing Audio Pops and Recording Audio Differently<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/9-helpful-audio-tricks-for-recording-documentary-interviews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">9 Helpful Audio Tricks for Recording Documentary Interviews<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-editing-on-the-go\"><span id=\"editing-on-the-go\">Editing on-the-Go<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rQJp8f3yUE4?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, and sadly for many veteran film and video professionals, I\u2019d say that creating better vlog videos really come down to the edit. Technological advancements and new and innovative <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/top-video-editing-tools-for-mobile\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">apps<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/10-must-have-final-cut-pro-x-plugins\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">plugins<\/a> are making editing so much easier and more powerful.
