Tue, 18 Apr 2006 After making a short film for the Howard Stern Film Festival (I'll release it once I hear whether or not I'm a finalist), I decided to check out what people are doing with online video shorts, starting with Video Blogs. This playlist has a bunch of stuff so I figured I'd start there. After watching just a little bit of the playlist, I have a question: what are these vlogs, or whatever they're called? Personal accounts of various stuff? Creative and/or experimental films? There may not be any real parameters, but unlike the numerous text-based blogs that keep being created (69 new blogs per minute according to this post, and that was in 2005), making a video blog requires some moderate skill, or at least a willingness to do more work than just typing away (sometimes incoherently). Maybe one day everyone will have a camera in their home and we can all watch whenever we want to (Rudy Rucker wrote about that way back in the 1980's). The idea of a blog that offers original videos by the creator, on a regular schedule (once a week/month/day, whatever works) is intriguing to me. The idea of personal entries is about as appealing to me as homepages that feature pictures of your cat. [/blog-on-blog] permanent link |
