blog on "first vlogs"

after watching the you tube video "the anthropology of you tube" which was very eye opening and made me look at you tube in an entirely different way, we are looking at something that the video talked very much about which is "vloging". Vloging is when any person goes on to you tube and makes a video of themselves and simply talks about themselves, and this could be their very first vlog or their 100th vlog. it is simply about putting themselves out their for whatever their reasons are. some people do it simply to entertain themselves and others, some do it for class assignments, and some do it so they can simply vent to someone because they find it more comfortable to speak to a computer camera than to another person. the vlog that i chose to write about is one on a girl named esemee denters. she is from the Netherlands and is a now famous singer in America that has recently released her first single and has become a smash hit especially on you tube. her vlog is simply to talk to her fans and tell them more about herself, she wants her fans to have a more personal connection to her and her music. attached to this blog are multiple videos of her singing songs that she enjoys singing and of course her hit song. in the vlog she tells viewers her interests and intentions in music and also things that she is personally interested in. she says that she has an "obsession" with Egypt and points the camera in the direction of her walls to she the audience all of the Egyptian posters in her room. she simply wants to connect with other people and her mass number of fans and experiment with her own comfortability boundries to improve herself

  1. I think this blog rolled into the gutter. The blog could use alot more thought and details to it! overall i thought it was okay! but be alot more descriptive in your blog. Dont just talk about what the vlog was about. You need to elaborate more on the background and what he or she is talking about. you used some descriptive details which is good.you did good on describing what a vlog is but you could help the reader by adding more stuff also, overall your blog about the antrhopology of you tube was really good. just use more of the little things. but good job Mr.Finney
