Video Blogging
Is
On The Rise
Video blogging is not all that much different from
an ordinary blog. The obvious difference is the addition of a video as
the source of content.
Typical
characteristics of video blogs
- Presentations often include some sort of
embedded video links or videos.
- The video links sometimes also include
supporting texts, images or other sorts of metadata.
- Many
video blog sites available on the internet are collaborative
ventures with the majority of the blog
entries authored
by individual users.
Video
blogs are also referred to as vlogs, vblogs and vblogging. The web
syndication advantage is
often taken by the blogs and is done to allow the distribution
of
videos over the net.
Blogging with vidoe is quite often distributed
through the use of really
simple syndication which is popularly known as RSS, or by the
use of
the atom syndication formats.
This is done for the automatic playback
or aggregation on the devices like the mobile phones and personal
computers.
Concept
of Video Blogging
- The term vlogging or the concept of video
blogging
was introduced (in standard video form) for the ordinary
blogging process.
- It is now considered as an
expansion of the
video bulletins and diaries.
- During the 1980’s the use of the video cameras
took off.
- People became more interested in making video
diaries through the use of the video
cameras.
The
British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) was one of the first to start
monitoring the increased use of video recording in a social environment.
Soon after, a
program was established in which random citizens were
given Hi-8 video cameras.
These people were asked to
film
their lives throughout an entire year.
The people filmed their every
day lives.
The video program under which the videos were
shown was
known as the Video Nation.
The BBC received a
very positive response and collected some 10,000 video tapes.
Out of the 10,000 tapes almost 1300
shots were edited by the corporation and were shown publicly on the
television.
The first of the videos to be shown was named as the mirror
and was filmed by Gordon Hencher. The viewing figures of the show were
also very high.
The figures ranged to about 9 million. The popularity
of the show led to the origination of some themed video nation
series.
And the birth of video blogging pursued.
