RE: Blog or Vlog? - What is powerful tool of expression - answer may sound one sided but not someone's experience
Hi! @chireerocks.
It is interesting to see that you have caused a discussion about both expression tools. However, I would say that I learn more from a video than from something written, for example, how to cook rice, how to disassemble a laptop, how to program in a modern programming language, how a vehicle works and so on. I love using YouTube to learn, in fact here they call it "the University of the poor". The images in movements are much more appreciated than thousands of words.
Tutorials will always be better received in videos than in written form.
But this is also the other point of view
It's like when you compare a movie with a book. The film with its effects will help to quickly understand the whole story (depending on the catharsis of the actors, of course). However, introducing yourself into a book, more details are detailed that will not be seen in the movies. You have to use your imagination and feels all the things the writer makes you feel.
I guess it's the same thing that happened many years ago with radio and television. People lived listening to the radio, there were storytellers who told stories and novels. People had to use their imagination to see in their minds what they expressed on the radio, that awakened a capacity in the human being that was asleep. But with the appearance of TV, it was no longer necessary to imagine, you could see and hear everything. So that capacity to imagine that it had been born with the radio was lost.
Which one is better? For me, it will depend on the material that you want to transmit, or who you want to reach.
I think I overdid it!
Keep in touch
@jadams2k18, Yes, your points are to the point and valid but no matter how much vlogging we do or on visual effects we work, in the form of basic steps we have to write down some pin points which is important related to our vlogging product or any other form of visual. So writing is the base of expression and Vlog and visual effect is modernised and expanded version. Thank you so much for your detailed response. Stay blessed.
