Vlogging in public - How do YOU feel about it?
Peter McKinnon it can make me feel a bit nervous but i'm fine with it because its vlogging 😀😀😀
Peter McKinnon Vlogging is the best thing ever
I like to do it, but I still feel like an idiot when I do.
Peter McKinnon thanks for advice
its been more than a year since you started uploading videos. I was searching for some channel in youtube and i found yours. at that time you didn"t even have 100k subs when i visited your channel and now you have 870k subscribes bro that is sick. first i was like he should upload some tutorials and then after sometime you started uploading tutorials i was in love with those especially lightroom ones. Can you make any after effects tutorials next time. You deleted some videos to in starting of your channel :(.
its kinda long already but LAST thing what i wanna say finally is you inspired me that you can take better pictures with minimum equipment or no equipment at all. thats what i wanna say man thank you for these amazing videos. I MISS YOUR HAIR TOO!
I rewatch this every few months and it gives me something new each time
Ali Abdaal Ali, glad to see you here. I watch all your content and classes on Skillshare, you inspire me to do my own video.
omg this is sooo weird to see this because i actually watch your content!! ahhh
@@zahrak5209 I know same!
Two of my favorite creators!
Good to see you here as well!
Vlogging in public feels like wearing socks in the shower.
I was gonna say it feels lik vlogging in public :P
socks and underwear in the shower lol
haha!!
Carter Cleveland hahahahh
hahaha Maybe thats why I don't do it!!!
Fantastic thoughts Peter. Thank you for the inspiration. Come to India sometime, I'll show you around.
@dhruv joshi but he is more Indian than us xD
Watching this 3 years later and I have incorporated these points in my own vlogs, and it's true - You are the story, share it, be yourself and enjoy the journey! Keep creating!
This is so true! People watch vlogs because they love the person or family, not specifically what they are doing!
Freedom In A Budget its so true i felt like that in the beginning now i simply make vlogs of whatever i do lol
HOW TO VLOG
1. YOU ARE THE STORY ∞ 1:49
2 SHARE WHAT YOU LOVE ∞ 3:16
3. MAKE AND HAVE A PLAN ∞ 5:45
TIP:
IT SHOULD BE FUN ∞ 7:47
Thank you 🙏
HOW ASIAN ARE YOU ioi
Thanks. This guy talks too much
Thank you!
thx very useful haha
The most encouraging thing he said in this is that even he feels sometimes awkward vlogging in public
I'm 60 and have been vlogging for almost a year now. Thanks Peter for being such a fun inspiration in this new adventure. You're leaving a wonderful legacy for your family. Keep em' coming :)
Hi Greg! You're awesome!
We need more vloggers like Peter, he's a real creative just living life and working.
I'm trying! Been vlogging with a purpose and love for my craft for the past 8 years!
Just seems more genuine than most, hopefully that doesn't change.
There are! It's just really hard to get noticed on the internet
And sharing his knowledge is just a perk to his vlogs!
ARXV Photo agreed
2023 and here I am watching Pete’s advices, getting ready to launch my own CZcams channel and it is amazing how 5 years later everything he advices it still applies. Thanks Pete for inspiring me for years in so many ways. After dealing with a chronic disease I decided it is time to give back to the community, just as you have inspired and taught us. Thanks for being here and have fun.
Me too! Let’s do it 😁 this video is super unique in terms of advice, thank you!
It’s funny how I come back to old videos like this. Re watching them still gives me the motivation and hypes me up so much. I’ve opened up a lot more since the first time I watched this. I’m proud of that and thankful for creators like you Peter.
Im the "STORY" Im the "BRAND" Im the "PRODUCT" 😍 this lines got me motivated 💪
This video definitely gave me a different outlook on vlogging!!! I always think that I must do extraordinary things in my vlogs but now I know that I'm the one who makes those videos interesting
Olga TV 👍
Same here! I got inspired after this and posted my first vlog!
I couldn't agree with you more.
Same! I realized I watch reportoftheweek all the time and I don't even eat fast food!! It's reviewbrah's personality 100% 😱😱😱
Absolutely love this, Peter. You've really inspired me to try and turn my channel into more than just a channel that films simple b-roll videos of cars. Vlogging is something I've wanted to do for a while now but haven't built the courage to start BUT now... I'll begin preparing for it and really just take the leap. Thank you!!
I've been revisiting some "classics" from some of my favorite CZcamsrs, creators, and other inspirations today to help grease the creative wheels a bit, and lo and behold, some of the content that originally got me filming/vlogging/creating pops up.
This will definitely be one of the references i cite when I do my Q&A episode, because even though I'm still just a fledgling vlogger, one of the frequent questions I get when I'm out filming in public is "How do I get started vlogging?"
Thanks again Peter!
I used to feel really awkward vlogging in public, I used to not do it at all, especially if I was by myself, but now that I've been doing it for awhile I honestly don't care, some advice from a small creator like me is that if you feel uncomfortable vlog with friends, it takes away less of the awkwardness, then gradually try to just talk to the camera like your talking to your friends explaining what you are doing or how your day went, I love my vlogs and I love watching other people's vlogs, it's like a special connection between the viewer and the vlogger, I totally recommend doing it.
I love them
Watched some stuff, you're really funny dude! :) Just try not to shake up all your footage, some of it is hard to watch because of all the shaking :P But keep it up, nice work! :)
I personally haven't vlogged in public yet but I appreciate the advice and this deserves a lot more thumbs up man :)!
thank you thank you!
Thanks I appreciate it! and yeah I dont have a mini tripod yet but once I get one! no more shaking! lol!
We loved this video! However I think the main issue we have is with how we don't leave the house much except to go to our boring day jobs. I think the hardest part for us personally is coming up with the plan part of things. Thanks for the inspiration!
You've seriously got me wanting to get out of my comfort zone and do this, I'm going to start one soon and I hope you'll watch ❤️
that is awesome!! all the best to you...
Did you start
Do It! just go out there and do it! Have courage and put yourself out there! You never know what is going to happen
Hi its been a year, idk if youve filmed or hit a plateau but take this as a push. Go do it!!! 💖 God bless u 😁
I'm am about to start one, just need to get a mic 😋
Here I am, 3 years later watching this video. Still feeling weird to vlog in public, even realizing that I'll never see those strangers again in my life! (Literally never again as I'm traveling at the moment)
Lol! We just started this channel and we feel the same way 😬😆
This was really interesting and helpful. Been loving ur videos lately Peter, they really inspire my photography and CZcams Channel so thank you❤
Luke Alexander he is truly amazing hes the reason i got into vloging
Great tips. You are my hero :)
Today's video is completely different from previous videos, I can totally differentiate it.
Thank You for showing support, you do understand.
Love your Sweater by the way :)
I know I have told many vloggers that I was going to start vlogging, but I'm still having troubles getting over that step!!! So, this is really helping me to overcome that!!! Thank you!!!
After a week of getting frustrated trying to create content for the first time, this was SO helpful. Thank-you Peter.
Vlogging in public is soooo hard. But i guess you just have to do it anyway and then it get's way easier with time
Yep! The more you do it, the less you care.
I'm ok with my iPhone, but feel awkward as hell with the full rig hahaha
yes thats the hardest part for me
well, I can share a little history here if you guys wanna know, I started vloggin when I left my country for a little trip to Italy and I did it very well for the first time in public ! well i've put the videos on and then I started to vlog in my country, Portugal, and I found out that it is really hard more than those days spent in Italy ! So for you guys that are thinking about to starting to vlog take a good chance on your next trip!
I find it easier to vlog in public than with friends! Mostly because in public I don't know anybody so I don't care. Does that make sense? 😂 I feel like I have it backwards
This is some of the best vlogging advice I’ve ever heard. This is why vloggers like Peter and Casey have staying power and don’t need to be fake for the camera.
It's 2021, I am watching this because I want to get inspired. I loved how I remember your old videos had you making yourself coffee...looking back, your channel have become so big Peter! Till now I am still watching you and Matti because I found out that I got interested in film-making/content creating 💯😌
Hi Peter! This video will always be my favourite. It’s a difficult time we’re living now, well, currently i’m unemployed & it’s difficult for me to cope with the expectations of the society. I appreciate your vlogs. It’s genuinely good. Cheers from Singapore! :)
Hey Peter!
Love this vid. I actually JUST started vlogging and I love it. You have some real good insight that I found out myself and no one opened my eyes to the fact that people will follow me and my personality. Love your vids bro.
JQ
This was really inspirational and I always have been but I am even more inspired and excited to see where this whole CZcams thing will take me.
Coralie Anne same here! ❤️
Aye agreed!
Me 4!! Come subscribe to me guys and ill sub to you too!!
Subbed to you too. Thanks man
lets do it yall and get 2018 very exciting and entertaining
4 years later and I'm rewatching this while actually writing out and planning my first vlog and youtube channel. I appreciate you and your content.
How’s the planning process going a month on? Using this comment as accountability for myself, I need to get some content edited I’ve been slacking 😅
I'm right behind you starting next month
Sameeee
its been a year
@Driss this is the biggest callout I've ever received. Fair play.
I've recently started my trek into CZcams, I am by no means an experienced content creator but this video has been in my top 10 to gaining the confidence to go on this journey and sharing my passions so I just wanted to thank you for this video! Very well said, easy and simply advice to follow, and broke down some of the mental barriers I've had about starting a CZcams. Mahalo Nui Loa
With getting kind of stressed out recently thinking that my vlogs were gonna be boring because I wasn't doing these crazy extravagant things. this video is exactly what I needed. Thanks Peter! Great vid as always! :)
This is some insightful deep stuff man! I have been "vlogging" for about 2 years, just for fun, but my lack of passion for editing has been really in the way of portraying me in the best way. But this really motivates me to keep on doing it. You are truly an inspiration! Keep on doing your thing ✌️
Philip Warren Gertsson know the feeling🙈
Gotta sit down and do it anyway tho :D
That's what stopped it for me, just couldn't hack the editing, takes aaaages.
Rob Speaking I guess you gotta push through and break that code. I haven't yet, but still I try to upload weekly if I am bothered. Seems like you're doing well tho, reincarnate your channel and keep pushing man!
Dude the editing takes forever but it gets easier and better with time.
Thanks Pete! I come back to this video regularly for a reminder on why we do what we do as vloggers! You are the man.
Dude your like the best teacher ever had. I've been looking for someone to teach me skills of photography, videography and I'm happy I found you. I love your videos. Your awesome, thank you so much for sharing your advice and skills to us to learn and grow our skills, it's very helpful.
Thanks for tour advices, often my subscribers ask me to make a vlog and I answer : no sorry not know nothing happen in my life etc ...
BUT ! I decided to vlog tomorrow, I'm going to do some shopping with my cousins and I enjoy that kind of day so this is the best day to do a vlog !
good evening from France ! :-*
Dig the advice Peter! I'm just about to hit episode 150 myself and I feel like I am just hitting my stride and settling into my style. Trying to learn and grow everyday.
+Leftcoast oh hey! when your favorite youtubers comment on each others videos! 👍🏼
+Samuel 👊🏻
@@Levi_Allen how many subscribers did you have when you wrote this comment?
Finally started editing all the content I document over the last year. Appreciate everything you said here. Super helpful moving forward
Old but Gold! I needed this, thanks for amazing content Peter 🙏
Great points! I gotta just have more fun with it. Also, I've been going through some of my old vlogs and it's crazy how much I've improved.
Practice REALLY matters!
totally agreed
One of my friends just told me about your channel and as an aspiring Vlogger, I’m excited to learn from you!!!
Great video! Ive watched this like 10 times lol!
Thank you for this! I am not a photographer but I follow you because your art is your life. As a creative person I appreciate your insights into the creative process. We are all art.
Just started vlogging because Casey said aspiring filmmakers should do it to practice storytelling. Enjoying it so far but I'm still shy and I don't know what to say! Thanks for the tips Peter! Amazing content as always!
Thanks you so much for this video Peter, all your videos has helped me so much and encouraged me to make my own videos.
One love ❤️
Authenticity I guess is what Peter’s key note. I’m profoundly shaked with this great perception. Making a dull scene into something audience can’t get eyes off... is biggest challenge. Thanks for sharing this invaluable idea
Peter, just wanted to say thanks for all your videos! You have been a huge inspiration to me and today I finally produced my first ever Vlog! And the best part is I enjoyed every second of it and can’t wait to make my next one!
Man, I love you Peter, thank you for being you, this was exactly what I needed to hear right now =)
Your vids Peter inspire the inspiration and vlog drive within us! Thanks 🙏
Peter, thank you SO MUCH for this video. I have been vlogging but it takes me months before I ever get onto my next vlog. I always feel that the places I go to aren't interesting enough and I find myself delaying and delaying. Sure it's nice to travel to an interesting place on your vlog but I love your point about how you are the story and not necessarily the place that you're going to -it is SO true. This just changed my whole mindset, thank you!
The realest video about becoming a vlogger I've seen! Thank you! I've been avoiding making videos because at this moment, not much is happening in my life. But after watching your video, I've gotten some ideas and now will work on a plan! 😍
Haha I love your points on this. Vlogging is hard for sure. The main thing I've been working on lately with my vlogs is talking and doing discussions more. Making myself talk more to get better at that.
You, my man, are such a motivator. I watch your CZcams vlogs at night and want to get out of bed to start writing script... Thanks Pete. By the way, because of you, I did spend over 4,000.00 on a Canon D80 with tons of assessors. Drones are getting expensive buddy. Lol... love it though. You’ll see me soon on CZcams.
I am rewatching this after almost 3 years. This all still holds true. This is when I learned about Pete's coffee relationship.
Peter you are awesome man thanks for this information, I like how personal this felt for me and how sincere you are when telling your own stories. Best to you in all you do !
Awesome video ! Thanks for the information! I love to vlog !
Thanks Peter! I just finished shooting and editing 80% of a vlog which I’m going to upload tonight. I didn’t script anything just shot from the hip but I agree - having a plan is important to deliver the content I want to well! Thank you! I will tag you in my next upload! 😊
This has made the most sense out of the hundreds of videos I've watched. ETERNAL thanks... This is what I'm going to do!
Thanks Peter. Your work is inspiring me to be more creative with my videos. I admire the way you help all of us!
Honestly I need to keep watching this video before I vlog every time just to remember!
BKYL I know right! Just to keep me confident in posting I feel the same way.
I loved this video and starting tomorrow I will be uploading a video on my channel every single day ! I have already planned them and I am very excited for the world to see them. In the mean time if even one of you would spend a few minutes of your life watching this film I made it would mean the world to me - czcams.com/video/dEfwjZZeBC4/video.html
This is the first film I have ever made and I have put a lot of effort into it.
BKYL I agree! This was a great piece of advice
Honestly, I've been wanting to start vlogging and start making actual videos. One of my biggest hang ups was that I wasn't interesting or that I lived in a small town where nothing ever happens. I think im gonna dedicate a lot of time to really start making videos. Peter, you're amazing and super inspiring! Thank you so much for this!
I live in the middle of literally nowhere bro! You can do it just put your mind to it and most importantly be yourself! People like authenticity. Heck i'm just trying to help but I can't really help too much with my 5 subs ;D Lol
CloudCraftGaming you got this dude!
I subbed please sub back
This was the probably the best video I’ve watched and the reason I’m aspiring to be a photographer/videographer because of everything you do and how you just inspire thanks for everything
Old video I know but this is exactly why I'm watching right now, your personality makes watching this content better. There are a number of providers putting out similar content but I'm not watching them as much.
Main Lesson: Enjoy your own life and be excited to share it with others
I loved this video... Extremely motivational.. Love your style and energy. God bless you.
Thank you so much peter, I really needed this man. I love your advice and outlook on life.
I started vlogging during covid, then stopped because of that exact reasons you covered, not to what to vlog about, public vlogs felt uncomfortable and felt people looking. I recorded a vlog yesterday. And wasn’t sure if I’d upload it. But after watching your video, I think I will. Thank bro for the words of wisdom and for the confidence. Keep up the great work. Thank you
Thanks Peter for the motivation! This is why your channel is so awesome!
Aaron Geyer so awesome. Motivation is why I Watch most videos!
That makes sense! I'm not sure why I watch videos. Maybe because it is magical. There is something about this art form that gives so much freedom!
Wow very inspiring words!it means a lot to me as a new youtuber...you made my day,I got a lot of ideas for my content based on the words that you said. THANK YOU!
This is the best How to Vlog clip. It explains the most important aspects, the essence of how a vlog is made. Thank you!
Thank you for making this video!! Because of your advice, I am going to begin vlogging starting tomorrow. Thanks man.🙌🏼
That's just what I was looking for. Thanks Peter!
B. Pro good luck on ur channel bro
Faiz Aqeel Thx but I ain't starting any channel yet
btw I subbed to yours ;)
B. Pro owhhh thanks!!!
Agreed, this might have finally pushed me to finally start getting in front of the camera
I know that this is an older video but I just found it. Great motivation talk. Loved it.
I seriously just keep coming back to it lol
I have watched this so many times and the hardest part is starting after you start then it is fun and easy. Thanks for the motivation pete
oldie but goldies! thx for all your vids on how to make vlog, story etc! For my next trip to Scotland with my daughter in April 2023, you encouraged me to make a little Script for this adventure for.
I'm start youtube about 1 month ago, but i still working how to put my self in front of camera, the only way i tell my story today it's from what happen in front of me when i ride, but i hope i make it in front of camera soon... 🙏🏻
Thanks peter, for sharing your stories... 🙇🏻♂️
Awesome advice! Thank you Peter! I think I'm too caught up in the idea that visiting exciting places and doing exciting things would cause more people to watch my content but in actuality I realize it won't, showing more of my personality would. 👍😊
Natalie Nightwolf I am also trying to find myself in that aspect.
Bro I love u man!
That's what I always say, it's always being YOU...everyone wants to be like everyone!
Being you is best!
Thank you for this. Just started my travel VLOG. You are completely correct with having fun and sharing things you love. This is what matters ❤️🔥
GOD! You have seriously become my favorite CZcamsR! Subbed like 2-3 minutes into the first video I watched of yours!
ImAndresPorras Pete is such an awesome motivator and teacher.
Rob Dymott Without a doubt! already learned a ton from his videos!
me too !!!
ImAndresPorras i was like that the first time i saw him and then i became a vlogger to lol and i love it
I totally agree man! His content is just so captivating! Even his making coffee scenes can keep me glued to CZcams for 20 minutes!
Yeah I agree, personality is key. I learnt this the hard way when i first started on CZcams
this is something I've been trying to get over, thank so much your videos have inspired me to take it up a notch
The best how to vlog video thus far...and I've been watching these for the past two days.
Man, now that I'm vlogging and from a tiny town, I needed to hear this lol My town literally has nothing to vlog about so I write story boards like my journey to getting Oreo cookies lol
But it has you keep grinding bro
The best advice ever, I actually want to cry ❤️
aww sweetie don’t cry 💕
no you are supposed to have a good time
Thank you man. I never stop watching your videos, you are great!
Man, kind of unreal that this was the recommended vid from you when I opened up CZcams. Today was my first serious attempt at a vlog - so much awkwardness in being around public with it. But feel good overall. Thanks for sharing - this advice seems so spot on.
I have been thinking about starting a vlog, thanks for the encouragement.
This video deserves 5M viewers!
Great Inspiration!
I like your content Peter, but bro, your delivery is so engaging which makes it so easy and enjoyable to watch. Thank you
I'm a winemaker in Napa Valley... going to start my vlog as I get to hang out with wine industry leaders and am fortunate enough to drink some of the most insane wines on the planet... that and we get pretty loopy from time to time. You're a huge inspiration Peter. Thanks for all you do.
This was very inspirational and educational! It definitely gave me a whole new perspective on vlogging. I can't wait to see where CZcams will take me! 😁😁
BLUF
You are the story
Share what you love
Make a plan
Distilled...Have a good time and keep the cameras rolling.
Definitely some food for thought with my new content, thank you! I have just been winging it through the days so far, when I really should plan it better!
I'm doing my first vlog this week. I've touched on vlogging just shopping etc but I get the struggle thing when I've got business to attend to 😂 I'm taking my time on this one in the hope I'm really happy with it! Thanks Peter, I love your relaxed approach to everything, you're fricken awesome! ❤️
awesome vdeo this really helped me as im a bit nervous about vlogging in an airport on monday but this won't stop me be a photographer loved as usual:)
Just do it! Don't think, just hit RECORD!
This is great! very encouraging and motivating! Thank u Peter! 😊
Very! I get so awkward in public.. it is getting better but it takes me a while to get comfortable haha all the best to you!
Big up Pete. Great video. I've been vlogging on and off for the past few years and I've been struggling with confidence in front of the camera as I've spent most of my life behind one. Thanks for the video, I needed it.
I'm so glad I found you on here Pete.. I know you get this alot but I love all the information you share.. I take it all into consideration. I just started what I guess I call a vlog. I'm still trying to figure it out. But I listen to what you say, and I try to incorporate it into the few videos I've made. This vlog especially... Literally gives me ideas now. Thank you for all you do man. Much love. ❤️
