Welcome back, everyone.
Today we are still on our TECHNOLOGY topic.
And we are talking about vlogs.
Now Rob has a special guest on his show.
Her name is Vera Vlogger.
That's right.
And Vera makes cooking vlogs.
She tells you how to cook.
And she also makes money with her vlog by putting ads on her website.
Let's see what else she has to teach us in Conversation C right now.
Tell us about a normal work day for you, Vera.
In the morning, I work on new recipes.
When do you film yourself cooking?
In the afternoon.
And I edit the video myself.
Editing takes a long time!
You make vlogs look easy.
But they're really a lot of hard work!
Right.
Each video is only 10 minutes long.
But most of them take hours to make.
I can tell.
They're great videos!
We know Vera enjoys cooking.
She's good at showing people how to do it.
But she also makes her own videos.
That's a lot of work.
Yes, it's much more work than I thought.
Each vlog is 10 minutes long.
But they take hours to make.
Can you believe that?
I can.
I've made videos before and they really do take that long.
First, you have to do some writing.
Then, you need to get everything that you need.
Oh, that already takes some time.
I'm sure Vera has to get a lot of things ready for cooking.
All those tools and all that food.
Mmhm.
And after everything is ready, she films herself cooking.
That wouldn't be easy, either.
And it may not be easy for you to understand.
So, let's talk some more with Christina right now.
(Chinese).
Many vlogs are very simple.
People can just film themselves with the camera in their computer.
But I don't think you can do that with a cooking vlog.
No.
I think Vera would have to use a video camera that she can move around.
And after she finishes filming, she can edit everything.
We often use the word "edit" to talk about putting a video together.
You have to choose which parts you want to use and put them in the right order.
But you can also edit writing.
I edit a magazine.
I choose some writing to put in the magazine.
And then I make sure that no words are wrong or spelled wrong and that
everything looks good.
And someone has to edit the show, too.
Thank you, editors.
Well, we don't have much time left.
So let's move on to our key word review.
Here's the first key word.
successful.
successful.
Bill owns a successful fruit shop.
explain.
explain.
Can you explain this problem to me?
hobby.
hobby.
Yance's hobby is playing video games.
company.
company.
Ellen's company makes yummy pies.
edit.
edit.
Mom will help me edit my story.
OK.
Those are all the key words that we've learned for today.
Make sure that you practice them on your own.
Right now we want to review our conversations from today one more time.
(Music).
Hello, everyone.
Welcome to Let's Talk.
Today we are talking about vlogs - video blogs.
Please help me welcome my special guest, Ms. Vera Vlogger.
Today we're talking with a very successful video blogger!
Vera, your videos are very popular!
Thank you!
I'm happy so many people enjoy them.
Can you explain your videos?
Sure!
I make videos about cooking and baking.
That's a popular topic!
It is!
A lot of people want to cook.
But they need someone to show them how!
And you're great at that!
I didn't know my videos would become so popular.
Cooking was just a hobby!
But now you actually make money with your vlog, right?
I do!
Most of the money comes from ads.
But some companies make special tools for cooking.
They pay me money to use their tools on my vlog.
You're an Internet star.
How does it feel?
I like it!
Making videos that help people is fun.
Tell us about a normal work day for you, Vera.
In the morning, I work on new recipes.
When do you film yourself cooking?
In the afternoon.
And I edit the video myself.
Editing takes a long time!
You make vlogs look easy.
But they're really a lot of hard work!
Right.
Each video is only 10 minutes long.
But most of them take hours to make.
I can tell.
They're great videos!
(Music).
OK, Ginger, let's try it again.
Five, four, three, two, one, go!
Go where?
Just start talking.
Say hello.
Oh. Hello, everybody, I'm Ginger.
And this is my vlog.
"V" is for video.
"L" is for log.
Everybody knows that!
Monkey Man, you are interrupting me.
Sorry, go on.
Today I will talk about my hobby - eating bananas!
Everybody knows that, too.
It's a very popular topic.
Let's enjoy a banana.
Monkey Man, what's next?
Well, say "First, peel the banana.".
First, peel the banana.
Then eat the banana, like this.
Eat the ba...
Monkey Man!
That's my banana!
Ha, ha, ha.
Delicious.
Monkey Man!
Keep going, keep going.
Goodbye, everyone.
Hi, Karen.
Hi, Ben.
Wow, are you feeling OK?
Sure.
Why?
Well, you look... uh... different.
Yeah... oh?
In... in a good way.
Um, uh, you're clothes are... interesting.
Yeah?
Do you like these?
I bought them at...
I chose them through...
With myself...
With myself...
I need Super Sentence Man.
Did somebody say my name?
I am Super Sentence Man.
And the super sentence for today is:
I did something myself.
You want to say:
I chose these clothes myself.
Yeah! I chose these clothes myself.
Well, great.
Now, I have to help many people by giving them a super sentence.
But, first, I want to hear you use this super sentence in another way.
OK.
I made this art myself.
I made this art myself.
Good, I guess.
Uh, what about your friend?
Can you give me a super sentence?
No problem.
I walked the dog myself.
I walked the dog myself.
Super!
Now what super sentence did you need to use with your friend?
I chose these clothes myself.
And that is how you use a super sentence.
Remember, a super sentence every day will make your English great.
You know, Ben, your clothes are special.
Really?
Uh, yes.
But I think you need a different style.
Really?
Don't... don't worry.
I can show you some cool styles myself.
Come on.
OK.
Katie, this lesson made me a lot more interested in vlogs.
I've only watched a few, but now I want to see some different kinds.
Did you watch any vlogs, Katie?
Well, like I said earlier, I want to try to find some travel vlogs.
And I already watch a few of those.
Some vlogs are helpful.
And some are just for fun.
You can try to watch both kinds.
I will.
What about you?
Do you think you will look for some blogs that you are interested in?
There are a lot of them on YouTube.
You can learn about cooking, writing, history, art and many other things.
There is something for everyone.
Just like there's something for everyone right here on...
Let's Talk in English.
Bye-bye.
(Music).
