Writing content or making a video is not an easy job, some people write excellent blog posts and some create excellent attractive videos. For a very long time, I was looking at both blogging and vlogging journey, which one is actually easy. Many will say making a video is much easier than writing a post. Through your writing, you can express your thoughts and original feeling.
Now, I do both and if you ask me which one is easy, I will say nothing is easy. If you want to write something, you need to find out a specific topic and then you have to think about what to write on the specific topic. On the other hand, when you create a video with special effects or do the outdoor shooting, not only it needs time but also effort. Perhaps a video can take up to 2-3 days for an excellent result. Obviously, writers don't care about making videos... Their style is different so do vloggers...
Recently, I have been reading stories of visual storytellers and I should say some are really excellent. I love how they visualize the entire scenario and present a story beautifully for the readers. Shot or long doesn't matter, what exactly matter is how these storytellers are presenting the stories by giving plot twist. I would say a writer's success in his writing depends on readers' choices. If readers like his writing he is successful. On the other hand, I have seen some excellent writing that doesn't get enough traffic, poor thing.
I personally think if you are writing 1000 words you are writing for people right? If nobody is reading your articles then where is your success? The same rules/concept goes for the videos as well, you need to attract your audience.
Some contents are boring and monotonous, to be honest, according to my perspective. I don't have time to read thousands of words if the content is boring and monotonous, no matter how many excellent words you have used, I don't care as a reader. Every day I watch at least 20 videos, live streamings, why? Because I do multiple works and I need entertainment. For example, I watch videos while cooking... I watch videos while playing with my dog, simple as that...
Don't ask me about quality because I don't know what is quality. Sometimes I like one picture without any text and I give credit to the photographer for capturing such an excellent picture, my choice right and according to me, he captures excellent pictures. My boyfriend always watches videos and his selection of videos is completely different than mine. He also writes articles for different magazines but I never read those. Why? because I am not interested in his topic...
Last I wanna say, write what you feel, create what you see but to attract readers or audiences, you have to do some research on it...And of course, if you don't interact with your readers or audiences, nobody will check your content a second time, and if you wanna target specific audiences then it's your choice...
