Video Blogging
I divided this book into parts, which I organized by topic. The parts point out the most important aspects of videoblogging. If you’re looking for information on a specific videoblogging topic, check the index or skim the headings in the table of contents and flip to the indicated page.
By design, this book enables you to get as much (or as little) information as you need at any particular moment. Need to know something fast to set up an RSS feed? Read the section of Chapter 13 that applies. Videoblogging For Dummies is intended as a reference that you can reach for again and again whenever some new question about videoblogging comes up.
Part I: Zen and the Art of Videoblogs
This part gives an overview of videoblogging. It’s part introduction, and part quick-and-dirty get-you-started fun. Here’s where you find information on watching videoblogs, getting your computer set up for videoblogging, and creating your first, basic videoblog post.
Part II: Step Away from the Camera
Okay, this part doesn’t really get away from the camera, but it does focus on the parts of videoblogging where you don’t necessarily want the camera present. For example, getting feedback on your videoblog, branding a look and feel, overcoming stage fright, and planning a videoblog entry — as well as scripting it — are all in this part.
Part III: Lights, Camera, Vlog!
This part talks about more advanced filmmaking techniques, including composition, lighting, sound, and file formats and compression. If you’re an experienced videographer, you’ll find the file formats section interesting, but if you’re new to storytelling through a lens, then you’ll want to read Chapter 9 on composing shots and using the camerawork to tell your story.
Part IV: Going Public
In this part, you get the preflight briefing about putting your videoblog on the Internet, publicizing it, managing the permissions, and keeping an eye on your traffic and bandwidth expenses.
Part V: The Part of Tens
I’ve remained true to For Dummies style by including a Part of Tens. The chapters in this part can help you quickly find ten or so vlogs to watch, personal vlogging ideas, and business videoblogging ideas. The Part of Tens is a resource you can turn to again and again.
