- Hey guys it's Justine and "Vlog University"
is gonna be here before you know it.
If you guys haven't heard about this,
I'm doing a conference here in Los Angeles
at the Convention Center.
It's on January 31st to February 1st,
and it's gonna be so amazing,
because not only are you guys gonna get to come here
meet other like minded creators,
but I will be there putting on a bunch of sessions.
It's two days and covers everything in content creation.
Not just the filming, the shooting, the editing,
the color grading, the audio, the lighting,
but also we have some lawyers
that are gonna be talking about contracts.
My manager is actually gonna be there
and he's gonna be talking about how to work with brands,
what it's been like to work with me,
and how he has kind of helped me grow my business
to where it is today.
I like to think of it as a crash course of everything
that goes in to producing content for the internet.
We're gonna have TikTok panels,
we're gonna have some green screening sessions
talking about how to green screen on a budget.
My friend Francesca, who I've been working with for years,
who does my makeup for a lot of bigger shoots that I do,
she's gonna be giving you guys some tips and tricks
in her session on how to do makeup for on camera.
And not just for the girls,
this is also for the guys as well.
We're gonna be talking about mobile production,
how to shoot with an iPhone,
how to quickly edit.
I have a bunch of sessions on day two,
so that's gonna be the main day where we talk
about mostly marketing.
One of the ones that I'm really excited about
is a collaboration panel.
So I'm gonna have a special guest on that one,
which has not been announced yet.
Even if you're a fan of YouTube and you've never
made videos before in your entire life.
This will give you an incredible insight
on what goes on on a daily basis in the lives of YouTubers,
but not just YouTubers, Instagramers, TikTokers.
The process is kind of all the same,
but the platform is different,
so creating content for multiple platforms
is also something that we're gonna be talking about.
It's gonna be incredibly overwhelming and I don't think
I've ever gone to a conference that is like this.
If you've never been to a conference before,
this is way different than something like VidCon
or normal YouTuber meet ups.
We have two days of classes scheduled,
like I said before,
ranging from video production, to marketing,
to lawyers to talk about contracts,
how to light your videos,
how to get good audio,
what gear to use.
It's gonna be incredibly extensive,
and the amount of information that I think you guys
are gonna leave this weekend with
is probably gonna be overwhelming.
This event is not just for beginners,
but if you are new to this whole industry,
this is gonna be so much information that I wish
this was something that I had
when I first started doing this,
because I started and had no idea what I was doing.
So this is gonna be an accumulation of everything
that I've learned over the past 13 years.
A lot of people from my team are gonna be speaking
and it's just really cool to be able to bring all the people
that I've worked with for so long,
and be able to share some of this knowledge with you guys.
You can take a look at the website
for the tentative schedule that we have up right now,
but this is gonna be here before you know it.
So if you guys are interested in getting tickets,
you can use this promo code at checkout for a discount.
Just head to vloguniversity.com.
We have a bunch of different ticket options.
There's also a payment plan on the website,
so you don't have to pay full price
for the tickets all up front.
A lot of you guys have been asking about the ticket prices
and why they're different from things like Vidcon.
Because these are actual instructors that we have.
So these are people whose profession is teaching
these types of classes.
So this isn't just some random people that we decided,
"Hey you look like you might know how to edit in Final Cut,
"come teach our classes for us."
I wanted to make sure we had some of the best people
in the industry here to teach you guys.
So I'm so honored that we have so many amazing people
who agreed to sign on for the first year of Vlog University.
This is the first time that we're doing this,
so really anything can happen,
and I have no idea what to expect other
than I know that the lineup of people that we have right now
are absolutely incredible.
Another really exciting thing is we do have support
from Apple for this event which is basically
a dream come true.
Obviously I do edit a lot in Final Cut,
so we'll have some really great Final Cut classes.
If you've never edited in Final Cut before,
we have beginner classes.
We also have a little more of advanced things
talking about color grading and all sorts of things
that go into post production.
If you guys have any other questions,
don't hesitate to ask.
There's a little button on the website
that says "Contact Us",
so just click that and feel free to ask any questions
that you guys might have and the team here
at Vlog University will be here to help you guys out.
I'm gonna give you guys a little sense
of what the program looks like.
So here on the website,
you can see that day one is kind of focusing
on producing content.
So we have several different tracks right here,
but you can see we have everything
from choosing the right gear, "Camera 101",
Final Cut Pro editing, contracts, podcasting,
how to make the most out of all your content,
"Building your Home Studio on a Budget",
how to quickly reformat for Facebook, Instagram,
and other services.
We've also got a nice "Round Table" discussion.
Anther "Panel" about self care and burnout.
And we also have an "Expo Night."
And then day two we also have three different tracks,
"Creative Strategy", "Creating Content",
"The Business of Being a Vlogger".
We're still working on filling out the entire schedule,
but this is gonna be super fun.
And here's my little track over here.
We've got "Creative Intuition"
from development to execution, the importance of collabing,
branding techniques, green screening on a budget,
"Tik Tok Production", "Brand Deals", "Audience Development",
"Building Your Team".
That's actually my manager, hi Petar.
We've got a nice fun "Apple Presentation".
This last "Panel" here that is talking analyzing the future
of influencers and social media.
That's not even the final schedule yet.
We still have things to fill in.
It's so much great stuff that honestly, (sighs)
I can't believe it.
So January 31st and February 1st,
I look forward to seeing you guys there
and being your teacher.
(squeals)
It's gonna be incredible.
All right, that it, I'm gonna go.
I'll see you later, bye.
