Video Blog

So, I’ve done something new. I’ve started to video blog.

Video blogging is something that seems awesome, and scary, and something that I can do. So I tried it. I was able to do it. Awesomesause.

I am not sure how much more video I will do, but for this message, I thought something new would be the best format.

    That was great! Martha, that was brave! I haven't done a vid blog yet...but when I watch them, every time, I'm like...yeah! That is so great! Something wonderful about letting someone really see who you are ....in this day..... Really loved it. I'll be waiting for the next blog post. Don't throw it out!!
  • a tip on the video, is less editing and more realism. It is a pretty short video but and I think you would do really well to figure out what you want to say and just say it without cutting it up. You don't get to edit real life. But I like what I see otherwise.
  • Martha, this is my first time on your blog, so I don't know much about your voice or what I want from content.

    What I do want? More videos! Makes you more of a "real person" to me and is (IMO) a better delivery than longform.

    Great Job in the video Martha! You have been doing great with your blog so far and I have really enjoyed it. The reason I come to marthachinnock.com is to read about what you have to say! I'm not sure exactly what your objective was when you first started your blog but whatever it is, I think you should stick to that, I wouldn't worry too much about what the readers are looking for. At this point I think we are all here just to hear what you have to say! And you are very inspiring and have been helping other, me, along the way, which I think is just a bonus. Great stuff. I look forward to each post! I love you!!!

    I would like to hear more Browns news, like who is going to be the quarterback of the Browns next year, what kind of offense they are going to run, who are they going to draft with their 11 draft picks and stuff like that. Love, DAD...

    Hey Marvelous Martha!

    I LOVE the additon of your new video blog, especially since I haven't seen you in so long. You look fantastic!!!

    I thought it was a little manipulative ( :-) to use your little beauties to solict ppl's help however. Especially the little head to the side pleading by Amelia! Like ANYONE would say no to that????????

    As far as suggestions for your blog, I say stay with the "voice" you are using as it is so you. As far as giving business or motivational tips or whatever, I say you must go with what you feel each day to make it the most genuine. So, if you feel like being very motivational one day, then run with it....

    I am really glad you started this whole blog! It is a wonderful way to learn more about you!!

    Love,
    AB
  • I have really enjoyed your blog! I find motivation and comfort in the journeys that you share. It's nice to hear that I am not the only one wanting to get into shape but have been less that productive about it. I look forward to hearing about anything Mary Kay as I loved having you teach us in Tucson. I think that you are doing a Marvelous job with this blog and the video blog was really cool too! This is your blog. Put down your thoughts and feelings. Not what others want to see or hear. Trust me. You are a very interesting person. People want to hear about you and what you are doing.

    Love ya,

  • Love it Martha! I think you did a fantastic job, really. With most people when they jump into using video, it can take a while for them to loosen up to the camera and get in a good flow but from watching you, I get the impression and feel like you've done video before.

    Very cool and keep it up :-) Btw, I'm a big fan of personal development and business topics.
  • I like the video blog - it's nice to hear your voice, and the girls, too. :)
    I have enjoyed your blog whether it's video or written - and I agree with the others - blog about what's on your mind. I have been surprised in the past with comments you have made that have helped me to recognize either something in myself that I need to work on, or have made me feel better about something that I was stuggling with or worried about because I realized that someone else felt the same too. I'll try and be better about posting to let you know!

    I want you to blog about anything that helps you. I am so proud of you.

    Hey there! Your hair is getting long! Sorry, I know that's not what you wanted to know. Let's see, I lke the blog. I love random wanderings into other people's mind. I'm trying to do that more on my own blog. I think tour blog should be a reflection of what's going on in your head at the moment. If you are in the middle of an awesome project and are super excited and want to share it, share it. If you have a business epiphany, share it. If you need to rant in a constructive way, share it. I like the video idea, especially for if it is something you are really excited about. I have to get out of my nice warm bed now and go shake the girlies out of theirs and get this morning moving.
  • Congrats on your first video blog! I'm so impressed, and love the out takes w/ the girls! :) And, total kickbutt job on the clear call to action!
  • If you have some good tips for motivation, please share. That's an aspect of my life that is weak and could use some help.

    So, just remember this was my first time doing a video, my production assistants are 6 and 8, and I promise to shoot my next video from a more flattering angle.
