Vlogging In Public | Some Advice For Shy DTubers
People,
I had a blast with a fellow Steemian @teodora being a little silly free-spirited on the streets of London shooting a video together.
In this video, I talk about vlogging in public and the fears and apprehensions that prevent people from doing it, even when they really want to. I also propose a likely solution.
Shoutout to @joythewanderer - possibly the most confident public vlogger on DTube :)
Enjoy.
Peace and Love ✌🏿

Heyy, nice to see you two have fun and “grow” together! Having a vlogging partner definitely makes you feel less crazy! I have my selfie stick with me here in Thailand, because I thought, hey I can just walk around and record videos on the street, after all, nobody knows me there! ...and I’ve used it exactly zero times til now (three months in... 🙈).

Hahahaha.. You need to get some videos out there! Thailand seems to me to be more tolerant of people photographing and making videos. I watch a lot of photography channels and that region of the world seems to be a favourite for that.
Yea, it's awesome to hang out with cool steemians.
Yes, Asians looove taking pictures it seems. Yesterday in my favorite café a couple came in and took pictures and when I left - more than an hour later - they were still busy with that. I think they didn’t even order anything LOL
I have to adapt more to the Asian culture I think 😄
ahhh you're describing me! I hate vlogging in public alone. I feel super awkward, and at home I'm super at ease (although not when I first started). If I have a partner in crime vlogging with me outside in public I don't mind it, it's fun, but by myself I just feel like everyone is staring LOL
Everyone IS staring.. especially with that bump 😂😂
😂 yeah now it’s even worse lol

hahahaha.
Really like this vid man!!!! I think you're right!!! collabs are always the way forward!! I guess it also makes 'that subconscious brain filter' kick in too, because its put into context of talking to someone who can respond, which a camera wil never do. You are very adapt at talking to cam tho!!! very natural!! As someone who doesnt even like pics without sunglasses(haha), I got nuff respect for you!!
Can totally relate to it being more tense where you live tho!! Gigs on my home turf are always the most nerve shredding!!!!
OMG I can imagine. People you knew growing up may turn up to your gigs haha.
Same for me with just being in front of the camera, it took me a LOT of videos before I loosened up.
The key is to keep improving I guess. Nice one.
I had a lot of fun as well and now launching I agree that combined vibes makes it easier. I am more relaxed with someone around than just me talking to some unknown friends on the other side of the camera. Love the project you come up with and see you soonish

Looks like you had a lot of fun together, guys :) And some useful advice in the video too! We already had a little conversion on taking photos of people in the streets, which is still something I find very uncomfortable and I think vlogging in public is actually a few levels up so I might never even try :D But it is ok - I think we all have are own styles, preferences, ways of doing things... :)
Btw, while @joythewanderer is a certainly a big name in the world of Steem video production, my pick of the most confident public vlogger would be Dan @world-travel-pro - this guy has absolutely no restraints, no matter where he films. I remember he actually almost got beaten by some dudes while filming in Ireland :D
Wow, that's crazy. I hope he stays safe :)
No wonder she was so excited earlier today in her vlog today. Hmmm...
Well I was shy when I started but I am a bit confident but I need to work on my delivery.
About vlogging in public hell no! My heart will sink. But I think it would be doable if I am with someone else. Might try this though. Lemme go find me my tedora
This is my case, I feel like I have a lot to share, but Im shy
You are not alone. You can try recording a video and not upload it. Just get comfortable in front of a camera first. That may help.
great video man. and solid advice.
i’m ok with blogging in public but there are times i just feel odd speaking to a camera that’s recording me lol it’s weird and i can see how people react when they see you talking to yourself.
but alas. it’s for the audience right lol have to find a vlogging buddy to do these videos next time.

Yeah haha. I also did an experiment some time back. If you use a phone, and you hold it vertically, people don't stare. They assume you're on a FaceTime/Skype call to someone. The moment you turn the phone horizontally (landscape mode), BOOM! the entire street turns to look at you hahaha. I don't know why. I'd rather make video calls in landscape mode anyway but the streets wont let me 😩
