It was inevitable: Bloggers who previously wrote endlessly about everything from politics to tech tips to how to fry an egg on a hot sidewalk can now take their commentary, advice and random experiments to the next level by filming and broadcasting their work, thanks to the latest web trend -- video blogging.

Video blogs -- also known by their shorter, clunkier name, vlogs -- are blogs that primarily feature video shorts instead of text.

Like another web trend, podcasts, where people can subscribe to largely home-brewed audio programs, people can sign up to receive regular video downloads. Though it has not been promoted, the new Apple iTunes podcasting feature supports vlog subscriptions as well.

It's REAL not Reality TV! A video blog is the new hot new trendy way for people to stick their personal lives on the internet! Not just simple words, static pictures, or grainy audio. They invite you to join them where-ever they go; meet their friends, their family, go on vacation, fall in love, and all vicariously from the comfort of your home computer. See some people's lives, and consider joining in on the fun here at TheInCrowdVlog.com

To see a sample of my (Cheryl Shuman's) personal vlog, see my blogger www.CherylShuman.blogspot.com or you can always "goggle" me :-)

I'm organizing a "vloggerfest" where we will have five camera people and sound. It's basically going to be a party where our production crew will film a two minute video for you at no charge to display on your vlog. Basically, here's the pitch/rub/whatever... I believe that each and every person has a story. My philosophy..."Everyone Has a Story...It's Not How You Tell It... It's How You Live It"...

Your mission? A Video that tells your story in two minutes. Can you do it? Sign up for our RSS Feed on www.TheINCrowdVlog.om, www.CherylShuman.Blogspot.com and also here to get our latest news on events and other "haps".

xoxo,

Vlogging Information Central:

Definitions:

Vlog
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

A vlog (short for videoblog) is a blog (short for weblog) which uses video as the primary content as it is linked to within a videoblog post and usually accompanied by supporting text, image, and additional meta data to provide a context for the video. Blogs often take advantage of RSS for syndication to other web sites and aggregator software (rss readers). With the inclusion of RSS Enclosures, which provides the ability to attach media files to a feed item/blog post, it is possible to bypass the mainstream intermediaries and openly distribute media to the masses via the Internet. Vlogs take full advantage of this technology just as audioblogs have in recent years via the podcast boom.


Definitions

Vloggers themselves have discussed definitions regularly since 2004. Much debate has actually been a misconception of the topic due to confusion over vlog content verses vlog technology. It has become obvious that vlogs can be any regularly published video content. Vlog is not a genre in and of itself.

Common Genres:

• Personal - Many vlogs are personal. Creators may document their daily lives, recount stories from the past, or air their opinions about various topics. This genre is as varied as the personalities that make personal vlogs.


• News - Some vlogs cover news events.


• Collaborative (also collective or group) - Some vlogs have a collaborative nature.


• Political - Some vlogs discuss political issues.


• 3rd Party Collections - Some vlogs collect videos from 3rd parties.


• Behind The Scenes - Some vlogs show the backstage activity of film production or other arts and skills.


• Tutorial - Some vlogs give advice, demonstrations, how-to's, and tutorials.


• Religious - Some vlogs discuss religious topics.[1]


• Magazine Type or Lifestyles - Some vlogs take the magazine or lifestyle approach.


• Assignment-Based - Some vloggers work from "assignments," or prompts, within online communities of similar vloggers. Assignment-based vlogging also tends to be more collaborative, as every assignment-based vlog is a collaboration between the assignment's creator and the video's creator.


Terminology

• Vlogosphere
• Meaning: Vlogosphere is the collective term encompassing all videoblogs or vlogs; vlogs as a community; vlogs as a social network. Derivative of Blogosphere.
• Usage: "I've found quite a few cat videos while wandering around the vlogosphere".
Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlog"


There is a small but growing number of vloggers who feel that videoblogging transforms the Internet into a medium in which people can communicate audiovisually through personal video posts and globally network with people as well as to create new independent programming and content not controlled by major broadcasting networks or cable outlets. These practices revolutionize online communication.
Video can also be uploaded to a moblog. These works are typically shorter, unedited clips uploaded directly from a video capable camera phone. Moblogs with video, while not generally recognised as such, are also technically vlogs.

This group is specifically formed to find undiscovered talent that aspire to be media content creators and filmmakers for the new production arm of our firm. This will be our gathering place to change the world through our own voices.
