the vlog is back I'm here in Los Angeles
California but I don't know what story
I'm gonna tell the day so I guess I'm
gonna just teach you cuz that's just
what I do how to vlog in public now a
couple of disclaimers one
I don't vlog often I am a vlogger
because I do make vlogs however I do
find that some of the things that I do
to vlog especially in public here at the
airport can probably help you as well so
let's just tell you that story and teach
you things and just share what I do
because I do a lot of weird crap that
[Music]
so a couple of starter Nuggets the first
one is courage and what's funny about
courage is a lot of you already have it
you just don't know it and the reason
why is you're someone who is making
videos on the internet like me therefore
you're making something and pretty much
putting all your time and effort and
some vulnerability to it and you're
posting it to the world wide web in
which people can just watch it in either
ridicule or phrase it you already have
the courage to do this so just do it the
other thing is pay attention to your
surroundings so where are you you don't
want to yell when it's quiet and more
importantly you want to be respectful so
I mean if you're in an area where you
shouldn't be shooting and you get asked
not to shoot don't make up scene just
say okay and go somewhere else we have
some batter so here's how you want to
start off do you want to start by just
hitting the record button and just
waiting until you get the inertia the
guts it's like jumping in a pool when
you know it's gonna be cold here just
like oh I don't want to get in there but
you know you're gonna do is gonna feel
so good afterwards but that's what you
do so you just wait until you get that
courage that moment that one second
we're like okay yep I'm cool just gonna
go down and just jump into the pool it's
the same thing with vlogging so what you
got to do is hit the record button and
literally just wait around wait until
you get that moment of courage and then
just go okay so here's the thing you
want to come to stuff walking improperly
it's got a do it a lot so the first
thing you need to do is try to isolate
yourself somewhere where not many people
off
yes there is an individual there however
I'm in that corner I'm not really seen
by too many people at the end of the day
you're running in public so you're going
to be seen by a lot of people so just
keep that in mind however put yourself
in the nearest isolation spot possible
if you really are you know have anxiety
I think you know at the end of the day
you're just talking to the camera yeah
that sounds like it's a biggie on it's a
little weird it is you know focus on the
fact that you love to create focus on
the fact that you love to put content
out there for those on the Internet so
we'll just took a picture in there so
that's pretty quick yeah already can do
is find a little nook somewhere where
you're just isolated and just put your
type are on the floor and just crouch
kind of in we can sound good what's up
everybody
I think do that Oh
mm-hmm so I'm probably like a rare
exception I just dropped bacon on my
pants and I actually love airport food I
don't know why so low so the easiest way
to blog is to get into a flow get into a
rhythm and the one of the best ways to
do that to make you more comfortable is
pretending to talk on the phone yeah
it's weird though trust me check it out
yeah hey what's up not as good I'm just
uh here at the airport about to go home
[Music]
yeah yeah for sure
and as you ascend chily still pretending
to talk you're now just flow that into
the camera and start talking talking the
way it kind of gives you the vlog flow
number one and number two it just makes
you more comfortable with your
surroundings and what level volume you
can talk in right now you're not being
made people talking so I can't scream or
anything like that but you know it
brings out the fact that if I were to
talk someone on the phone this is
exactly how I will talk then you just
transition that into you know the lens
if I put how you
[Music]
people know when you have headphones on
you're not really paying attention to
anyone else
MPs I'm running out of breath because
I've been walking for like 30 minutes
this Airport is giant enormous okay
anyway now I have better lighting well
saying is but headphones people already
don't pay attention to you because they
know you're not paying attention to them
so it kind of gives like a psyche and
the other thing that happens is when you
put them on you kind of get a dull
experience where you don't hear
everything around you so you therefore
kind of feel more isolated to yourself
as if you were in your room or wherever
you're vlogging you know whatever maybe
oh and another blogging project do your
best not to look people in the eye
because and eye to eye connection means
one or two things one you're recognizing
an individual and then you either make
it distracted or - which happens most of
the time is you then get nervous and you
feel as if oh god they're looking at me
and they're looking at me weird on a
camera versus just talking right into
the camera I feel comfortable talking to
you and talking to my friends you know
so that's the trick with that at least
that's how I do
I can go to LAX and just vlog away
because well I'm only looking at you I'm
not looking at anyone else I have
headphones so I don't really hear people
music on or anything but it just doles
it out the end of the day it doesn't
matter what the people around you think
it matters what your audience thinks and
you think in regards to what you're
creating so just do that just do you so
if you watch the vertical film with jack
conte you now know that there is a box
your creative process is in a box and
everything that's inside that box makes
you you including vlogging in an airport
and looking stupid to everyone else
we're not thinking about it and ignore
you so just do that and everything
outside the box is all the stuff that
you can adjust but that's it just don't
change you because you're awesome
[Music]
finally be ready for interaction
interact with people a lot of times what
happens is people either come up to you
asking what you're doing or they even
think you're bigger youtubers and that's
just a fun weird experience by the way
if you embrace people hey you're just a
good individual in general so that's
good and you're interacting with another
human being the second part is sometimes
they're either your story itself or a
part of your story so right now I don't
really have a story I'm teaching you how
to vlog right but if I get someone in
you're actually coming up to me then who
that becomes of my story that becomes
part of my conflict within my three-act
narrative blog people are great in the
world the reason why you know the world
the way it is right now it's because we
don't embrace each other as much as we
should
so if you embrace someone asking you hey
what are you doing it all works out in
scream like it actually really is do you
know how sometimes you'll like hit the
microphone on certain areas that's what
it's really good for boom you can change
all your audio settings right in the
camera itself it's kind of curious i 5d
you know it's gonna add a house thing
about doing something like that so we
had one of those I think okay what does
he feel about it you know you need to do
it thank you I think that's all the tips
that I have for you guys today so if
that provided you any type of value to
me a favor smash that like button but
more importantly just apply what I did
and just start doing like I told that
dude just do it
[Music]
now let me talk to you later after
Beijing filming the vlog of course that
was not a fake call by the way it's
really maybe back home I'm in Austin now
think LOD yeah hopefully all that makes
sense to you guys this is not a video to
force you to vlog or say yet if you
don't blog it on courage that's not it
at all it's more so hey yeah if you're
aspiring to vlog here a couple things
that I do that allow me to vlog in
public I'm doing just right now anyway
if this video provided you any value
smash that like button for me please if
you're already subscribed thank you
