Vlog It!

Beginners interested in turning their blog into a vlog will find Serious Magic’s Volg It! software a big help. However, if you’re interested in doing something more creative or complex than a basic video newscast, you’ll find the software limiting.

Pros

Cons

Vlog It! is designed for bloggers interested in video, not for videographers interested in blogging. If you fall into that first category you will most likely be delighted with the software. If you fall into the second, you will be disappointed.

If you've never done much with video before, you'll love how easy Vlog It! makes it to put together a video blog entry and post it online. Everything is taken care of--from importing files, to recording narration, to compressing and posting your video--with the beginner in mind.

The Vlog It! template is a basic newscast, and that's what your vlogs end up looking like. The effects and green screen capabilities allow you to change some parts of your vlog, but the basic structure is always the same: a talking head (you), with cutaways to still photographs or video clips.

So, while you can use Vlog It! to quickly and easily create a video version of a blog post, you can't do much more than that. For the low price, though, it's worth giving Vlog It! a try.
