Getting Started
“But, what if I run out of topics to vlog about?”
If you’re experiencing self-doubt or hesitation, rest assured that we all experience this when jumping into a new project. However, if you are legitimately terrified that you won’t be able to come up with ideas for your vlogs, let’s stop and think and go back to chapter 4. That’s the chapter about defining your concept and asking yourself questions to ensure you’re picking the right niche for your vlog.
The truth is if you pick a subject you are truly passionate about, you’ll never run out of things to vlog about. Think of someone in your life who is obsessed with a specific sport. Do they ever stop talking about it and their favorite team, the games coming up, the new recruit, etc.? That’s your goal. Find something that you love to talk about with your friends, a topic that comes up all the time, and vlog about that.
Generating Ideas
Let’s get to how you can actually come up with some topics for that vlog of yours.
I have a friend who we will call Mely. She makes vlogs about food and recipes. We were talking about our vlogs, and she told me she needs to have her brainstorming session of the week in order to come up with a topic. I thought she was working on some sort of unique project and had to meet with her team to brainstorm. Nope. Mely has brainstorming sessions every week by herself. She sits down and comes up with ideas for her next vlog.
