Description

So you've always wanted to start a vlog (or just create video content in general)?  Whether it's for business, income or fun, it all just looks hard... Like, really hard.

You might be frustrated that it's not going to look right, or be petrified of being on camera, or just confused about where to start with it all. It doesn't need to be like that though. This course is built from the ground up to get you on your vlogging and filmmaking journey.

It's comprised of 35 lectures built around:

Section 1: How to begin

  • Who is our audience and how can we help them?

  • Finding topics to vlog about

  • Who's done it before successfully?

Section 2: Film your first vlog

  • Creating your starting vlog set up.

  • What kit might you have access to already?

  • Scripting and planning your vlog

  • What sort of camera should I use?

  • Camera set up

  • How to get great sound

  • How to light my shots correctly

  • Cheap & Easy upgrades that you can make to your kit

  • Editing - where to begin? (Using Adobe Rush & others)

  • Where to find music for free (& why it's useful).

Section 3: Finding your Style

  • What style of video suits you best as a filmmaker?

  • How to present in front of a camera in a way that makes you look brilliant

  • Picking the right focal length to make you look good

  • What clothes should you wear on screen?

  • What sort of background you should set up.

  • How to film B-Roll for your vlogs.

Section 4: What platforms should you use?

  • Finding the right platform for you

  • Setting up your Youtube, Facebook and LinkedIn channels and uploading to them

  • Formatting your videos correctly for Instagram

  • Adding Subtitles to your videos

  • Using Thumbnails to get more viewers.

Section 5: Where to go from here?

  • Continuing your vlogging journey

  • How regularly to create content

  • What kit to upgrade to from here

  • How to progress with editing, using Adobe Premiere Pro CC

  • How to keep coming up with new ideas.

With 3 hours of content and 35 lectures, (one of the most comprehensive on Udemy) I go into every element of how you can make your vlog a massive, huge success as a Videographer, Vlogger, Filmmaker and Video Guru.

With zero technical knowledge, a bit of creativity and a minimal amount of kit (seriously, we're talking a mobile phone here) you can start your vlog, have a tonne of fun, do more in your business and reach more people.

I'll see you on the course.

Who this course is for:

  • Complete beginners who want to start their very first VLOG
  • People who are nervous about throwing themselves out there and creating vlogs and video content about something they love
  • Someone who's tried filming themselves, is getting frustrated or unhappy with the restults and wants to improve!
