How To Start A Vlog – Tristan Ahumada
I finally did it. I created my own Vlog (Video Blog) and here’s how:
⭐To edit: I used Final Cut Pro. It took me around four hours to do this on my own, but there are ways to cut down this time.
⭐To film: I used my Canon 80D with EFS 10-22 MM lens, but also my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 to shoot some footage.
⭐To capture audio: I like the Rode VMPR VideoMic Pro R with Rycote Lyre Shockmount.
⭐To steady: I used a Joby Gorilla pod.
⭐Mark Rader, my friend, team member, and DJ created all the music for me.
⭐Myoutdesk created my intro and my outro.
I shot a lot of footage and took my camera everywhere. I had people staring at me and I had people ask me what my YouTube channel was.
The purpose of the Vlog is three-fold.
- Gives me a wider presence among other people, specifically locals in Malibu because I’m shooting more and more there.
- Helps my referral business.
- I teach and show agents/salespeople how to have a more successful life because it’s tough to be in sales.
