Jon: Have you heard about Pinoy vlogging?
aajao: seriously, it was only introduced to me by Coy just this year. Well, vlogging, that is, and since Coy is Pinoy, then I guess he and his “work of art” can together be labeled as Pinoy vlogging, don’t you think so?
Jon: Well, yeah. So what can you say about Pinoy vlogging?
aajao: Ok, let me see… first, I’d like to put into words my amusement in the term “vlogging”. So I’ve learned that it is a shortened term for the two words “video” & “blogging”. From the words combined, I can easily define that vlogging is an online anecdote of the authors life (or adventures) posted in video. In this case the author is not only considered as a plain author of his blog but also an artist.
Jon: What brought about your last statement?
aajao: Well, I can tell that making a vlog post isn’t as simple as ABC. Every vlog post is treated as special— with a subject ready to be broadcasted, the artist will still need to conceptualize his visuals and proper approach. There lies the difference between blogging and vlogging. In blogging, you can easily write about a certain topic in different angles. In vlogging, it takes a good amount of time to conceptualize, put into script your subject, then prepare the materials to be used for the shoot. You also need to check on your audio. And oh yea, did I already mention about the editing?
Jon: Wow. You sound like a veteran vlogger.
aajao: Never been one. I’m camera shy. 
Kidding aside, I have maintained my blogs to be personal in nature and I intend to keep them as is.
Jon: Oh, okay. So, how do you envision the future of Pinoy vlogging?
aajao: vlogging in the Philippines isn’t really an established “medium” of Pinoy bloggers yet. Yet. With all the technology that we have these days and it will be more advanced in the future, vlogging might just become the next blogging trend in the Pinoy blogosphere. For one, Pinoys are creative and passionate with their choice of tasks. Pinoys enjoy reaching out to others by all means, and vlogging is a great opportunity to realize this trait of ours. With vlogging, you not only give your audience the chance to know you by the way you write but it also gives them the chance to get a better “picture” of the authors/artists personality.
Jon: Ok one last question, will you make a vlog entry?
aajao: hmm… we’ll see.
