36、 no denying that this method of communication has taken the world by storm. But what exactly is a vlog? A vlog is when someone records their life and put it online. Vlogging can be just a hobby or a full-time job. So how do you make a vlog? Lets find out!Vlog ProcessOnce you have a few video ideas,

37、making a vlog can be as easy as taking out a camera and recording yourself. But if you want to have a realistic flow, a video concept and some good clips（ 片 段 ）to use, there should probably be some research and planning done first. Creating achecklist of things that need to be done can be helpful in

38、 the beginning. Next you can start thinking about talking points. You might write some key points or even a whole script. The third step is filming your vlog in clips, bit by bit.

39、y on your camera, its time to upload them onto a laptop and start editing them.Vlog StandardsIt can be difficult to know how to make a vlog without knowing about the vlog requirements.

40、nd length. Unsteady or shaky video with copy-righted（受版权保护的）music will definitely combine to create a terrible vlog. Keep a steady hand and use online resources to get some music to pop into your vlog and youre on to a winner. The duration of the vlog depends on how often you post and the amount of

41、content you have. If you put your vlog on the daily, your videos can be a bit shorter. But if you only put it online once every few weeks, it might be a good idea for a longer video. Remember these vlogs are not professional movies, so if you sometimes have shakes of a camera or a bit of bad lightin

42、g, people wont mind. It might even be lovely! Humans are not perfect creatures, and neither are your vlogs.

Touching our facesthe “T-zone” of our eyes, nose and mouth in

45、particularcan mean giving ourselves the deadly virus.This is why organizations like the Centers for Disease Control andPrevention (CDC) have suggested that we avoid touching our faces. “Just stop this simplebehavior,” William Sawyer, founder of Henry the Hand, a nonprofit organization that promotes

46、hand hygiene (卫生), told The Washington Post. “Its the one behavior that would be better thanany vaccine ever created.”Yet, stopping this “simple” behavior might be harder than you think because its already into our system.Some face touching is an automatic reflex (反射) like when there is an itch on y

For example, youre more likely to do it when you feel awkward or embarrassed. According to Dacher Keltner, a psychologist at the University

48、 of California Berkeley, US, this action may also come with a social function: When you are talking to someone and want to change the subject, for example, touching your face is like “the curtains on a stage, closing up one act of the social drama, leading to the next,” Keltner told the BBC.Moreover

49、, face-touching in almost all of these is subconscious, which means its very hard to change “because you dont even know youre doing it”, said Sawyer. But youre not alone.

50、 23 times an hourwith 44 percent of the touches being in the “T-zones”.
