Sorry to ressurect this long and finished thread but I was away and didn't get to add my 2¢ - and lord knows I love to do that.So I agree with those of you saying good is really good to me. Like all things good it's relative. Outside of that, what I think is good usually (but not always) has

Ah think it's about growth and improvement if not about being
harmless. Take a look at notorious alcoholics like Jack Kerouac and
Ernest Hemingway. I would have rather seen them die of natural causes
instead of cirrhosis and suicide respectively. Maybe if they had the
creative channel of vlogging
What does make a good vlog?
Well, to me one thing is clear: if you love what you
are doing it will certainly show in your videos.
If your friends are talking about your vlog at a party
something must be going right...

using Final Cut Pro

My name is
I recently watched some videos I did last year again, and they
reminded me and my gf of our times back then. So that for me was a
good vlog. Like a good photo album, but different :)
And I watch Adam's woodchuck variety again and again, coz it's just so
damn weird and Adam is such a quiet guy and
not having fun.
Cheers!

Well then my vlog must surely suck because it is in no way clear in it's
subject, style or
intent. I follow no guidelines. I have no theme. Sometimes my vlog is goofy,

it's serious. Sometimes it's about me, sometimes it's not. Whatever grabs me
gets posted.

I'd say under 5 is excellent. 8-10 minutes is the limit. More than 10
minutes has to have a lot of great content.
I love very short vlogs, 2-4 minutes.

Just like a "real" news report, huh? We are the Sesame Street
generation, the fast food generation, where we lose interest very quickly, so
all the good stuff has to be pared down to fit into a 2-5 minute time slot.
Which, of course, is a great way

a good vlog is one that evokes some emotion using just the right
amount of air time with a memorable hook.
