It varies with me, it depends on "what" I am vlogging, this bit I did, Magic Eight Ball, I filmed and edited in under an hour, but I had a really good idea in my head of how I wanted the "finished" video to look, the filming probably took about 20 minutes total (with a couple of reshoots) and the editing about 30 minutes (which includes the time to import the video into my program) I use Sony Vegas (the "lite" version, it cost me about 60 bucks) You can see that video here. http://blip.tv/file/get/BatmanGeek- MagicEightBall238.mov
This one took a bit longer because I went over to a friends house to have some fun and to just show "geeks" as they are, I probably took about 45 minutes of footage or so, ( I was there longer) and it did take me about 30 minutes to edit (not including the time to import the video) because I had more "footage" to go through.......you can check it out here http://blip.tv/file/get/BatmanGeek-GeekDay587.mov I am learning NOT to film everything that makes editing a lot easier, at least when you are doing a "bit" but that gets harder when you are just videoing for the heck of it and then decide to make it a vlog......I have found though don't be afraid to edit, as long as the "meat" is there they will "get" it..... btw I am still learning my way around with Vegas but I really like it..... --- In [email protected], "Monique Danielle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello Vloggers, > > I'm curious about how much times folks spend editing and what programs they > use?
