How to Make Your Own Virtual Reality TV Show Online
With the creation of sites, such as You Tube and Viddler, it has become easier for people all over the world, from different backgrounds to create and broadcast their own television shows or films. Many choose to broadcast from their own web spaces, which requires XML and/or HTML knowledge, but you can also post videos on your MySpace or Facebook profile with ease. Here are some pointers.

1
Brainstorm and come up with an idea of what you want your future online show to focus on. The wonderful thing that the "age of you tube" offers is the freedom to make your show focus on any topic, even ones that would be frowned upon on broadcast television, or topics that would not offer very much monetary gain from producers.

2
Set up your props and scenery according to the situations you wish to capture. You can choose to use already present furniture instead of using props--just remember to use them accordingly. When filming, don't try to simulate washing dishes when you are standing in the living room.

3
Check your lighting at each location before you begin filming. If you need, add extra lighting with lamps. You don't want your video to be so dark that viewers will not be able to tell the difference between the actors and the background.
-
4
Film or record the situations and the scenes you wish to capture. If you decide to make your show into a "video diary," then record yourself ranting about your day.
-
5
Download your captured raw footage to your computer, via your camera's USB cables, then open the footage using a basic video editing program.
-
6
Edit your footage by deleting scenes you don't want to include in the final production. If you have advanced video editing tools, you may wish to play around with your software and add special effects. Save your changes.

7
Log online and sign into the site you wish to post your show. Embed or upload your video using the instructions the site offers you.
-
8
Send friends and family to view your broadcast by posting announcements or bulletins on your friend space or by sending emails or text messages.
