"I'm nervous, people are looking!" | How to CONFIDENTLY Vlog in Public

[@SafiyaLin]

Having a supportive partner makes a hell of a difference too! I love that for yall. I’ve been vlogging for a while and still to this day I feel very awkward in public. Thanks for the tips💚

[@alwaysaik]

The first tip is golden - so important to reframe the mindset ✨

[@EnjoyMarr]

Detroit Vlogger here I appreciate the extra tips I didn’t know🔥🫶🏽

[@OliviaJDunn]

The last tip is sooo true, one time I recorded in the gym and I just had to act like I was supposed to be recording and yall I promise if you look like you’re supposed to doing nobody will pay you attention 😂 I was nervous doing it but I just had to act like it was normal to do it and everyone was fine about and I was also careful to just have me in the clips. Great video and tips Erin!

[@luluilimoon]

The last tip was sooo on point, because at least for me the biggest problem is how to show up in public recording what I'm doing. It sounds so uncomfortable so the last tip about it just to "fake it till you make it" resonated to me a lot. The video as a whole was informative, Thank you so much, Erin

[@SkySocialAssistant]

I highly recommend reading the room before vlogging. It's essential to be mindful and considerate of privacy concerns, respect others' personal space, and be sensitive to the comfort levels of those nearby. It's better to check the surroundings first and ensure that no one would be inadvertently involved in your video.

[@KenyettaRene]

Erin❤ You ALWAYS come through when i feel like going back in my shell🤦🏾‍♀️. Thank you for this it was right on time...thank you💜

[@Monica.monroee]

Thank you I needed this! I be nervous to record in certain establishments .. so I totally get the ask for forgiveness instead of permission. I’m gonna start being more bold . Specially if I want to make this a real thing for me

[@nery.rachel]

ugh I needed to hear. I’m so soft spoken and introverted 😅😅 thank you!

[@os4305]

I used to be a HUGE introvert. I’m still introverted in some ways. However…..this year has been off to a GREAT start. I’ve been doing parts work and really been putting myself out there!!! I used to cringe at the sound of my voice. But now I can listen to my voice when I send audio messages….I can’t wait for my continuous growth! It’s so exciting and scary at the same time. 🥹

[@meshvlogwrld]

Sure me too

[@meshvlogwrld]

I’m from Ghana 🇬🇭

[@SouthernBella22]

I agree! I have started a small youtube channel and I feel like I still need to work on my confidence. 🫣 it’s all progression from here, hopefully I will look back and it will all be worth it!

[@MaRichards]

I looooove your “this is how you vlog” content. It’s the best! Please keep it coming! Especially the Think Media YT video from the other day. You killed it! Thanks so much for all that you share and teach us!

[@iamcrisean]

This video is so needed. I don't think anybody has ever SHOWED & not just told tips on how to vlog in public 👏🏾. I just power through it 🤷🏾‍♂️. But this is an excellent video 👌🏾.

[@FatimaAshley]

Wow I literally just finished watching a video you made on this topic from 2 years ago. It is so amazing and so refreshing to see your growth. Great job!! Thank you.

[@FabFamilyH]

Thank you for this!! I love subscribing people that teaches and explain everything perfectly!! I’m still new in vlogging. Will all get there 😅 consistency is the key.

[@ChelleInTheCity]

Cute video topic! Thanks for the tips! I’m still too scary to use my tripod and light in public but my introvert tip is just use your phone posted up on something and do the timer for some quick content on the go and my food content. People still look anyways. 😂😂😂

[@simplylethia]

Great tips. I have been so blessed while learning to vlog, people look but they seem more intrigued than anything. Now I finally feel the confidence coming in, it’s been 2 months. Congratulations again ❤🎉

[@DockNewellJr]

The confidence is on point 🤩

[@fabebou]

Thank you for the showing how to do it! I just started vlogging and .. it’s hard to film in public even to film in general lol BUT having a partner who supports is easier.. it’s help !

[@kimberlycorrine]

So true!! I’ve started content creation on TikTok and I use to be afraid but my followers love it!!

[@twee2k]

Loved this video. Still getting out of my comfort zone when vlogging in public 😅❤

[@SochaLifestyle]

The one video I didn’t know I needed. I am just starting out and I already have this shyness of filming. Thanks for sharing

[@vibewithme425]

Erin, you're a gem!🤎💎

[@MiMiMadeItbyLattia]

I absolutely love this video!!! I’m moving my content from my kitchen to the outside world. This is the best video I’ve ever seen on this topic. You are amazing and I thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Be blessed 🌸🌸🌸

[@IRLwithPete-fr2mq]

Thank you for the useful tips on vlogging in public. I'm glad that I found your video as it's helped me with talking to the camera in public. I do have a history of shyness. Very grateful to you.

[@geminicenturion5961]

Good pointers, thank you . . .

[@JasmineMadeItChannel]

Thanks for the tip I’m definitely trying the angles

[@BridgettHarrison]

Erin we need more of these please! I love the break down you did on Think Media about vlogging it was really helpful.

[@SouthernBella22]

Thanks girlie for your awesome videos and great advice! I have a started a small KZbin channel and it’s hard work but 3-5 years from now, I will be yelling “IT WAS ALL WORTH IT!” 😂🤣

[@VeraPin88]

I love your Vlog in Public video tips! Its helpful and something I can actually implement. I love it when you make these kind of videos!🧡💛❤

[@curtthomas9525]

This is great information. I am beginning my journey and you helped ease some of my concerns.

[@tabithathewholistic]

Honestly, I just learned not to care lol. It's becoming more and more common for people to be digitally documenting in some way, shape, form, or fashion! And I use my phone for all my filming, not a camera 🤳🏾 More discreet! P.S. Pro tip especially if it's an eatery, I very enthusiastically let them know that I'll take a few pics and tag the business on IG! Businesses LOVE some free press, especially these days💯☝🏾

[@mynameisKorie]

Solid Video Erin ! I recently started getting into the vlogging recently which i was so scared of, the more you do it, the more natural it becomes so gotta get over those fears🙏🏽

[@whitneybrown4067]

This is Gonna b so Helpful EoD🔥🔥🔥👍n Happy Thursday😀….

[@ThelmaExplores]

Congrats on the new bundle of joy coming in August. 🎉

[@DizzyfishArt]

I feel like giving you a big hug! Thanks for this vid💜

[@StephanieShavone]

This video was right on time! I want to vlog on my vacation next month but had some fear around it so thank you for the tips!😊

[@BeComingNyrell]

When I vlog in public I tend to rush the shot (talk fast /capture the b-roll too quickly/forget talking points all of that lol)

[@MOM_101]

thank you for the great advice and also MOTIVATION!! I AM trying this more and more.. m,ade me comfortable and confident thinking of these tips. i have high energy to others but shy round on camera round ppl.. I GOT THIS!!!

[@chainonmyneck]

Thanks for the Video. It‘s really good, but what i love most about it is the background song and how you used it 👌

[@LatinaAsianGoddess]

I needed to see this

[@lizzzzzzzzzzz6095]

Hiya thanks for this advice!! Later this year I want to travel solo but because it will probably get lonely sometimes im thinking of vlogging to record my thoughts and experiences. Im planning on doing a test run in a busy city near me. lots of content creators live there as well as many tourists so I feel like i wont get as judged and it will be a good confidence booster.

[@moniquejoinersiedlak_expat]

This was right on time! We're walking to the circus tomorrow and I planned to vlog it as well as The St Dominic Fair on Sunday in the town center.

[@jasongates-]

(The thumbnail and point number one) People will look, but it seems to me that by now, society should have LOOOOOONG been used to people vlogging, because it isn't a new thing anymore. Many people vlog. Many people take selfies. We all know what a cell phone is. Most people know that it switched from "blog" in newspapers to "vlog" on a website. Etc. I remember when the cell phone first came out, and it was awkward, cause people thought the person on the phone was talking to themselves, come to find they were on the phone. Which was understandable at the time. But as society got used to it, I thought for sure that people wouldn't STILL look in a way where it's awkward, except for those specific scenarios you mentioned. Despite now almost being saturated with vlogging, I guess society never FULLY got used to it.

[@MOM_101]

exactly, i dont make an income yet but i love this content creating and working towards the career goal!! believing in yt business takes alot of strength

[@CameliaKay9804]

Thank you, I needed to hear this

[@therealNicholeA]

Great tips! I'm still getting used to vlogging in public. It's harder than it looks! Thanks for this video!

[@GoalGetter43]

I so needed your video. I’m going to shoot 3 hair reviews and vlog a trip to get my eyebrows micro bladed.

[@MilesAwaywithUs]

Absolutely a problem I have. Like 😲 it's too awkward...

[@laporschejackson]

Thanks for the tips! I’ve been doing mostly shorts but want to start vlogging! 😃

[@genesissmith5370]

I feel like it's time for a gear update vid... i'm also curious about your podcast setup and whether you just use 1 camera to record or 2 & mic setup/process!

[@Simplybambino]

Started my KZbin channel a day a go,and this was my main issue,😅, thanks for this

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Another awesome vlog beautiful Erin and yes if you are willing to let strangers watch you online why should it matter if they watch you vlogging. Love 🥰 the vlog and love 💕 Erin.

[@GoalGetter43]

Thank you so much for all your information.

[@zarinahelizabeth]

This was great because i still feel awkward vlogging time to time.

[@plannerzoid]

Love this thanks for posting! Also what’s the background music used ? I like it a lot! 🙂

[@nathenialanders4854]

Hi, I love your music! What are your favorite options for music or recommendations

[@FurthermoreJack]

Thanks , I'm working on the eye contact man it does help

[@_TinaWilliams]

Loved the video, got some great ideas and tips for vlogs, looking forward to stepping my game up with this weeks filming 🙏🏾 i would love to see you do this video again but as a "soio" vlogger. meaning the b-roll in your actual vlog footage is static/set up by you, but maybe your husband films BTS. i don't have anyone to film me and would love some good ideas on how to get great b-roll when you're doing it all on your own

[@xabelngandwe9000]

Thanks so much for these amazing tips just one question which editing software is beginner friendly please

[@dawnravenel2473]

Thank you, thank you, I know confidence was one of the main reasons I wasn't showing up to do videos like God told me to do, this has helped remind me to just do it. I know once I get going it will be easier the more I do it, plus God's always with me so I know this is the next level He has me going to. This video was a confrimation,so thank you fam for doing this video, I know I am not alone in saying this was just what the doctor ordered. 😇💜

[@wrightbytes]

Good advice.

[@Theeunicorn777]

new sub I loveeee all the tips you have for vlogging thank you for sharing =)

[@Christiannmillss]

This was so good!

[@lindsainicole]

Great video Erin! Quick question, what is a good wide lens camera. I like to record my diy projects but I would prefer a wide lens. Can you please assist me?

[@pinayodyssey]

Thank you! I need this. :-)

[@staarfields]

Great Tips!

[@Lishahomespace]

Great tips! Ty! 🤎

[@bellalsms]

Hey new subscriber here, I'm getting into vlogging my thing is looking for a camera (I know I can use my phone but it's pretty old and the quality is not great I only use it for work) which camera would you recommend where I can switch the lens) Thanks you 🙏🏾 looking to dive into your content ☺️

[@greenglassgoblin]

when you set your phone up for a shot like getting in/out of the car, do you worry someone will steal the phone? I filmed a little test vlog and just leaving my phone & tripod a couple dozen feet away in a public park while I walked past made me nervous. Do you just get used to it and it's not a big deal?

[@livebeyondthesurface1735]

I have this same fear...what I’ve done is just be strategic about where I put it - such as an out of the way spot. So far, I haven’t had any issues! 🙏

[@greenglassgoblin]

@@livebeyondthesurface1735thanks good to know!

[@gracewaterman]

Off topic but you are seriously so pretty!!

[@какое-то_мурло]

Also Erin is very smart. She graduated from Hogwarts.

[@teeconnection5135]

I'm not that brave just yet. So I've vlogged in my car😁.

[@Marlenariana101]

Thank you!! 😃

[@ssbasketsonline]

❤ thanks for sharing the video 😊

[@davidasingleton8943]

We get in our on way! Truth be told nobody really cares what you do and if they do it’s only for a split second! People are busy just like you and have lives so…..

[@Cupcake_Laleh]

I recorded my first video yesterday and I felt so much more uncomfortable than when I live-stream with a gimbal. Yet I was recording with my phone so it could have looked like I was video chatting with someone 😅. People looking in my direction made me uncomfortable but in reality they probably looked at me for 2 seconds and then started looking at something else. Recording in a big city like Paris I don’t really have a choice, I have to get comfortable with people watching 😅 but also I have to remember people don’t care, they’re busy with their own things. Once I thought of these things I were able to relax and film more confidently and more comfortably 🤗 good luck everyone and thanks for the video 👌🧁

[@LifeWithTeesade]

Great information

[@jrontal7247]

❤

[@Gurlllsinbusiness]

I'm too big to be walking and talking. I sound like I'm fighting for my life 😂. I record and do a voice-over when I am in a sedentary state.

[@ChelleInTheCity]

Wait. You’re from MI?!? What up doe! I’m from Detroit!

[@ChicoBlack]

Erin Great information and tip for content creator Producer Chico Black

[@quadrizzletv1653]

Where does your husband get his frames from?

[@tanyaseward1017]

What do you use to edit your videos

[@MaRichards]

And I’m curious to know does she have an Editor or does she edit the videos herself?

[@costtv]

Erin You Got Nice Teeth😬🪥

[@tjprofessionalphotographyc6398]

What f stop do you use?

[@sergioin3D]

I heard you’ve become a mom!

[@MoniqueJoinerSiedlak_Author]

Now to figure out why there's no sound with my Canon.

[@strongfree915]

You’re beautiful

[@ImChicism]

You inspired me to start my KZbin a few months ago. And I can’t believe how fast my page grew with your tips🥹❤️❤️❤️

[@BeComingNyrell]

The first tip is what I tell myself but I also be hoping, wishing, praying they don't ask me what I'm recording for or what's my channel

[@lifewithchigor]

I’m brave but I’m still building my confidence ❤️🫶💯… I really enjoyed this, I’ll put it to work definitely 👍

[@xzandriaweil]

Thank you!❤
