Summary

Welcome to the third Monkey Monday vlog (we’re really building up a head of steam now), with Rusty Monkey directors Chris and Matt. Today they’re going all meta to talk about vlogging. That’s right, a vlog about vlogging.

They’re going to go over their six top tips for putting together your very own vlog, which are:

  • Make it a good length (03:58)
  • Provide valuable content (04:26)
  • Keep it consistent (04:56)
