Ask HN: 1 minute Daily Vlogs
Hey folks, I had an interesting idea. I just moved to Cambridge, MA to start a masters at Harvard. I'm up to some interesting things, and I'd love to share through a youtube channel where each vlog is only a minute long! That way its digestible, easy, and fun! What do you think?

Casey Neistat had a very poignant video today (yes, posted today). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q980C74SdYQ
Sure, I'd probably subscribe. Make sure to give each day a good title though. If it's just "Vlog for June 20th" it's not so easy to pick given how many subscriptions a lot of us have nowadays..
Just took a shot at one! I'm really eager to learn how to edit, this was my first time! https://youtu.be/dC-1OQ-3fb8
Congrats.
Yessir! I'll make sure to walk the fine line between great titles and clickbait ;) Also an interesting thing to note, I believe Instagram allows for 1 minute videos, so I could also cross post there.
The thing about Instagram is you need to be "in" to what you're saying ASAP as it's too easy to move on. But.. you'd also probably get more engagement especially if you have a lot of people who know you personally who'd want to watch.
Are 1 minute vlogs doable? Sure... it depends on you. You have to have a story. No story, no subscribers.
So, if you can tell a story in 1 minute or less... then I think it would work.

1 min is a bit too long, can you make it max 20 seconds?
I'll just release a vine copy, so we can shoot 7 or less
