The AF vlog thread
April 4, 2015 at 7:12 pm
So I had this crazy night. Some shit happened so I decided to record a video of it and well there you go.
Don't miss the Lucanus victory dance at the end.
https://youtu.be/AXCiBfMLQcY
After this masterpiece of the 7th art, I challenge everyone on the forums to make their own vlogs. Just for shits and giggles. Come on, let's make this a thing.
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

Edit Reason: changing "blogging" to "vlogging"
)
I love vlogs. I love the aesthetic and the equipment relating to them. Unfortunately, I just have my iMac, and natural lighting mostly.
Not that this thread asks, but a few of my favorite vlogs from others are:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFJY0O-...YuM5KW7r7g The Frey Life - about a young husband and wife, the latter having cystic fibrosis (warning: he is a pastor)
https://www.youtube.com/user/Gimmeaflakeman Gimmeaflakeman - middle aged j-vlogger previously from America. Now in Japan.
https://www.youtube.com/user/kepsux Kyde and Eric - a young couple previously from Richmond, VA now living in Japan, since '09 (I think). Traveling extensively in Asia, as well
https://www.youtube.com/user/myargonauts/about Jason, a 40-something who has been teaching (part of the JET English teacher program) in Japan for many years. Orange County native, UCSD grad.
As for me, it's just some voice exercises. I love the art of vlogging, but I have neither the equipment, skill, nor reason to vlog. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcUsdTX...MnXamR1qrg

I think the "art" of vlogging is really cool. Most of my favorite YouTubers daily vlog, which is really awesome to me. They make a decent living with their YouTube channels, and they bolster their audience with their vlogs. It's incredible that that is possible. The times!

Yes! I love this idea. Good job Lucanus? Luchanus? (  ) and Steel. I neeeed to see more of these. I know my man Rob will be down. I'll try to squeeze a few in when I can. I still have to do the question tag.
Anyhow, I'm 100% behind this. Come on peeps!
Oh and I love your land Steel. You gotta get some horses in that piece!

Duuude, nice accent! And props to you for that victory dance. 
Now if I can get close to something resembling a digital camera...  My phone has a shitty resolution, but it's worth a try.

OK, so, about my moves: that's the drunken giraffe style. Straight out of Dr. Who.
I'm glad you guys like this idea! This is going to be a fun thread...

It's Look-AH-noos!
Oh and by the way, Tennessee looks absolutely gorgeous! Now I want to go for a walk in the countryside too!
