Camcorder: you don’t have to spend a fortune to get a camcorder for your online videos. You can always manage with one of these mini camcorders. I personally use Flip Ultra. It doesn’t set the world on fire but gets the job done.
Software: having a cool video editor software to help you create your videos is a must. It could be the case that you want to capture your screen or maybe you want to build a hybrid video. Either way, you need a software such as Camtasia to get you started. I personally use Adobe Captivate and couldn’t be happier with it.
Accessories: to build professional looking videos, you are going to need lights and other accessories the get the lighting and background right. If you want to take high quality videos, you shouldn’t cut corners here.
Books: there are many affiliates among us who are technical enough to know how to create their own videos and go about editing them. If you are not, you are going to need to take a look at a book that teaches you what types of videos can work, and how you can build a following with your work. Here is a good book to get you started.
Services: creating your video is only one part of the equation. You are going to need to host it somewhere. You can always use YouTube or go a bit more advanced with Viddler.
Creating videos may sound daunting but believe or not, creating high quality ones is more challenging. The above tools help get started with your journey in video blogging. The list doesn’t contain everything but it’s enough to get you started with vlogging. Remember, the quality matters the most when it comes to making videos.
