Yay

This process has become a lot faster for me. Filming, editing, promoting. I'm proud to say that over 3 months I have 10,000 video views, and 275 subscribers.
I've made 12 videos: 9 vlogs, 1 contest, 1 music video, and 1 how-to.

I just wrote all my friends who write and asking for ideas, because I'm making a short film.
It's certainly a different media of video. A lot more thought goes into a short film, and not to mention minds. Everyone I have filmed has been completely unscripted so I'm excited to see how this goes.

Earlier today I watched a good hours worth of Adobe After Effects tutorials and I'm excited to use it in my future videos. I can REALLY get creative with After Effects.
I tried to use Adobe Premier for editing on my last vlog but I was in a time crunch and wasn't too fluent in it. Hopefully, next time.

Finally ordered a tripod and a bigger sd card, I was using 8 gigs before (I knowwwwwww, right). Both of those are really needed. I want a new lens but I don't have the money for that right now. Tutoring only pays for my gas money but I'm hoping one day I'll win a contest and then I can buy better lens :)
I also bought the new ipod touch 5.
I do not have a smart phone. Yeah, I want one, but I'm broke and I'm still under my moms plan and I can't afford buying a smart phone AND paying for the data plan.
However, we're breaking away from tmobile in a year. I couldn't wait, so I bout myself the ipod touch 5. I'm really excited about it. I can finally have instagram and music and other apps and I can become socially blind/rude like the rest of you haha.
I'm hoping I can own this social media thing so I can branch out to more viewers and people to collaborate with.

So, 3 months later and things have changed a lot.

Advice to all of those who want to get into film, just start filming.

  1. You're so cute!
    I met therealjustinflynn on one of my very few trips through AirTime and since then we've become Instagram buddies - which is how I stumbled upon your vlog and blog. My favorite video is the Law of Attraction (I'm a firm believer - Have you read The Alchemist?)

    I've actually just started a 3 month vlog series on my travels. I'm just using my iPhone and iMovie... we'll see how that goes.

    You're doing an awesome job and just wanted to send out some e-love :) I know how awesome it is to get feedback.

  2. Aw thank you!!!!
    I'm so happy you like that one because I always thought it was really awkward and I almost took it down until a third grader told me it was her favorite and helped her out. :)
    THE ALCHEMIST IS MY FAVORITE BOOK!

    I like your first vlog. You should definitely make more. Coming from experience, you'll regret not making more haha.
