Jan,

I think you make a good point, but, for the record, both are "research"
(self-report & behavior), as defined by things published in academic
journals ...

And, of course, behavioral research, relying on what bloggers do (as opposed
to what they say) would be very interesting and powerful too, but, there are
also a lot of interesting things you can learn from what people say.

In the case of Josh's research, perhaps he plans also collect behavioral
data and triangulate the two, which would is the best sort, in my view.

... best ... Richard (Dr./Professor/King/Ruler of the Universe) Hall

Most of questions you list could be easily (or not so easily) answered by
combing through a crapload of videoblogs and taking notes, counting,
watching, commenting, etc.

Dr. Hall, did this not used to be called 'research'? I forget.

For example, to answer "How long?" go to the vlogger's archives and click
the oldest month and there you will find the vlogger's first post.

If you watch sample vlog entries through time, you will get an idea of how
and why they started, what inspires them, and the direction they've gone and
are going.

You will see in black and white how often the vlogger posts.

All that information (and more) is part of vlogging's charm.

[videoblogging] Re: Grad Student Research - Profile of a Video Blogger

2008-06-04 Thread Mike Moon
Questions:
1. How did you get into vlogging?  
I watched an episode of Torrent that featured Michael Verdi and Ryanne
 Hodson talking about FREEVLOG.ORG. I purchased a $70 videocam and I
was off.

2. How long have you been blogging?
Two Years and counting.

3. What provides inspiration for your vlog posts?
I capture moments of my life so that when I'm really old and forget
how to feed myself, I can still look back and remember.

4. How often do you post?
Generally once every other day. Say, 3 vlogs a week. 

5. Is your video blog a business or a hobby?
It's a hobby. 

6. What motivates you to continue updating your video blog?
It's hard to have a lifetime of videos, be it the second half of my
life, without having videos. 

7. How long does it take you to post (from the idea-> filming-> posting)?
Ideas get written down and thought about. That time varies.
Shooting... depends. 2 minutes to all day, depending on what's going on.
Uggh, editing, compressing, converting, uploading, website...
I continue to improve and shorten my processes to give me more time
with family and shooting. I could bang out a 3 minute video in say 1/2
an hour. BUT, it's generally taking closer to 1 or 2 hours. 

8. If you have a site you would like to share (personal or just one
you like) please list here:
Sure... http://vlog.mikemoon.net
Not every video is an award winner, but odds are if you drop by,
there's going to be a new entry. 500+ videos in the first 2 years.
Drop by, say hello.

Mike

[videoblogging] Possible Gig for Videographers in NYC / CT Area

2008-06-04 Thread stbdpittsburgh
Hey folks;

I work frequently with a PR company in the NYC / CT area that provides
social media solutions for companies large and small. There's a
possibility that we may be scheduling more work in the near future
than I can handle by myself, so I need to find a few additional
videographers to cover the jobs I can't get to (especially if I'm
double-booked).

If you're an experienced videographer (as in, at least one complete
year of regular filming in a variety of live settings) and have your
own camera and transportation (or otherwise possess the ability to zip
around the NYC / CT area), contact me off-list for more details. Links
to your work are required.

(Yes, this would be a paying gig, and no, you wouldn't need to edit
the footage -- though that opportunity may present itself soon enough.)

Cheers,

Justin Kownacki
