What I Got For My Birthday 2018

Posted on by vickiie

Hello Adventurers!

This year for my birthday, as I have for the last couple of years, I went with my parents to Torremolinos in Spain as I am lucky enough for my Dad to pay for and take me to Spain around my birthday.  This year I turned twenty-two and I had a great time.  I do wonder when I have my birthday if I should be doing more for it to celebrate, but I just want to spend time relaxing on my birthday as when I am at home, I work all the time and only get one day off a week.  I spent the day relaxing, reading, watched a film, dinner, and then bed… WHAT A GREAT DAY!

So, now moving onto what I actually got for my birthday for presents which technically came in five batches.  I got two presents before I left for my holiday/actual birthday, presents on my birthday, items I bought on my birthday with some birthday money, at the airport heading home from Spain I shopped in Desigual and then presents that were waiting for me back home that were too big to take with us on holiday.  Let’s-a-go!

Hello Adventurers!

This is the second part of my three-part ‘Essentials For Videoing’ vlogging series.  Now, whilst I don’t consider myself an expert in any way, shape or form… I have spent this year filming and uploading vlogs and have learnt so much that I hope sharing that knowledge with you will make your vlogging journey, if you chose to take it, easier.  I’m including some hints and tricks that I have also picked up along the way.

Essentials For Videoing: Part 1

Posted on by vickiie

Hello Adventurers!

Last week I finished telling you about how I created my YouTube space.  So, seeing as my next task was to actually start producing (filming and editing) and uploading YouTube videos.  I thought that I would create another series to help you guys with what I find to be ‘essentials for videoing’.  With this being the first in this series, I thought that I would start with what I have found to be essential filming equipment as this is usually the first step into making videos.

Hello Adventurers!

Just a quick warning to say that this is the final installment in this series… only until I get my own house you understand.  I cannot believe how quickly this series has come to its inevitable stand still, however I am really excited that in the future I will be able to bring this series, and hopefully many more like it, to life again.

Creating My YouTube Space: Part 15

Posted on by vickiie

Hello Adventurers!

So to continue on from last week, I was trying to find an alternative to the chest of drawers as they now had a different use.  The other reason we didn’t really follow up on the chest of drawers was firstly, that it was really heavy to move and with my chest I cannot move it on my own and secondly the lighting and placement of it didn’t look right in the camera.

Creating My YouTube Space: Part 14

Hello Adventurers!

Following on from my previous blog post in this series, I found it too much of an emotional and mental struggle to film in the situation I was in, so I gave videoing a break for a long time and devoted all my time to my blogging work.

Hello Adventurers!

The furniture, the floor, the lights, the wall, the boxes were cleared.  Everything was ready.  Now on to: making the garage (or at least where I am working) warm, lighting options, how to best set up the camera and the perfect focus, and last, but not least, setting up the microphone.
