Anchor in Pj's Vlog Post
I recently watched this Vlog Video on youtube. It seemed like the creators tried having a lot of fun with it and made it comical, also editing it to make it appear to be like something you'd see on television. Obviously the quality of picture and sound isn't that great, the sound echoes and the picture is a little blurry. The bit didn't attempt to really get across any real essential information and didn't have much of a message. It simply attempted to use a comical approach to get across to viewers. I thought it was somewhat funny. I liked the part where the guy is swinging a club by the pool, slips, and then falls over. I'm assuming this was something that was staged, yet it was funny nonetheless.
Other Vlogs I came across were fairly personal and attempted to get something across to the viewer, but I picked this one because it shows the kind of quality video that people can create from fairly simple techniques and equipment. People enjoy watching bits like this even though there is nothing essential that comes from it other than entertainment. There were many other bits from the same makers. They had a little series on youtube called Anchor in Pj's. This was like the 17th episode or something like that so this is something fairly significant to the makers as they have made many of them. This bit just seems like something different from what other people are doing, although there are still probably many things like this out there. I think its important to look at the things people do with Vlogs, and try to identify the reasons behind them.
