Think Media has changed my quality drastically. So many gems.

Just telling everyone that the hardest part is starting. So, start. Worry about equipment later. Use your phone and get comfortable talking to any lens and learn to story board.

Using the sony ZV-1 to vlog and as my primary filming camera was one of the greatest choices for my YouTube channel! Now with the added wide-angle lens attachment, it's a step up!
Thanks for another great video ThinkMedia!

Want to vlog? You’ll need 3 simple things. A camera, wide angle lens, and a decent microphone. Once you have these things, you’ll be confident that whatever is filmed will be of high quality and quality will bring in more viewers.

So glad I chanced upon this vlog. This is what a "HOW TO ...." vlog for beginners ought to be. So very clear in delivery, hardly any distractions and to the point. I have gleaned so much in this short vlog. What a refreshing change from vloggers in colorful attire who spew no-brainers.
Thank you Madeline & Nolan, you both have given me the impetus to start my vlogging journey.

Think Media stays in the spirit because they stay answering questions I’m asking😅💯

[thelostoneproject]

Thank you so much. Total beginner, so this was a HUGE help!

[RobDymott]

Great tips guys! A brief outline is everything. I like to pick out three or four parts in my day and that becomes my vlog, it's even better when those parts can relate to one another forming a cohesive story, but in day-to-day life, it's not always possible to find that perfect narrative arc, unless of course, you plan it. But there's a certain amount of confidence that comes with knowing exactly what you're filming that day, it makes shooting, editing & packaging a vlog so much easier. Don't underestimate the power of a short plan for your vlog - this is coming from someone who's made over 700 of them & learnt the very hard
