Darren, this is funny this video just came on because my girlfriend just left out because I was on the computer. Im trying to figure a way to bring in extra money. Anyway, what type of video camera is this? Also, are you using any special lighting or video software?
Hey Darren, great video. So many people forget or don’t realize the business behind a website or blog, time management is so important, if you don’t manage your time effectively you just get lost and will never be productive.

Cool stuff!, I’m thinking of placing a video on my blog. Would be a cool edition to my animation series… Problogger is an awesome website!… :]
COol stuff, I know what you mean, I gotta move soon so I can focus on my blogging.
@thaipulsedotcom I agree. Would love to see the “headquarters” office where you are able to focus and get most of your blogging done.
Darren, thank you to you and your family for taking time to share with all of us. We are keeping things balanced by having time zones in our day, week and month, just as you do. However, we keep it all flexible to fit our family’s needs. Rigid scheduling comes off to my family as selfish and self-centered, even if I mean it to be helpful. So, I’m learning to keep it fun and flexible.
Compare to your old videos, This video is really nice and the kid also looking so cute. i love this video. Thanks for this video darren
He said hi 3 times. OMG That was too cute!
Niiice. Great video Darren – show us the headquarters! Vern (AimforAwesome)
@AmazingAaronTV yes I need to play more with the focusing in video – this was my first one with the GF1 so hopefully next time will be better
@ceairamoorejm glad it helped!
@clarekelway when you work it out – please do tell
@kimsherri I’ve made a summary of how I make money blogging at ProBlogger
Ultimately its about building an audience and then making money from that traffic either directly by selling advertising or doing some affiliate marketing – or indirectly by selling yourself in some way (either as a consultant, selling a product of your own etc).
@JoshRimer great strategy Josh
Great video! As a mom to three boys working from home, I totally relate! I like your tips about getting priorities right even when time is really tight! We have to learn the true definition of focus. I am still working on it…
Great video I am new to blogging and always find it hard to balance everything such as family, school, work, blogging, and I must say this video has helped! Thanks So Much ! You are great!
Fantastic Camera. I have a flash animation series but I am tempted to buy one of these cameras, as the animations take weeks to make!.
Thanks Darren :]
Nice video – looks great and the kid is a cutie! I find the work/life balance a struggle too. Still figuring it out, but mainly I’m just making the personal stuff more of a priority now and committing to things with friends and family and just sticking to it regardless of if I feel my work isn’t done and I’d like to “just one more hour”.
I see it is a job for you, but does it earn you income? and if it does could you share how it does that? thank you
You have a beautiful child! And, I love this video camera… going to check it out on amazon now.
@benwhitecomau the video was shot on a panasonic GF1 – great for shallow DOF although I need to turn off the facial auto focus as it seems to have gotten a little confused – next time
Great video! Balance has to be kept at the forefront. Are you going to give some insight into that shallow depth of field video? Looked great And again, great message
cool tips! i’m not yet a family man but this tips will be handy once I become one and if I pursue problogging too.
Thanks!
Great video! I love the way the video is focused on you with a blurred background. I noticed that the focus on the camera kept jumping around in parts. Is that because you did not have the focal point locked down? My camera lets me lock the focal point on a subject, but once you start taping its stuck there so the subject has to stay where it was in scene or it gets blurry.
Great touch, and pirate hat!
I agree, it’s important to set a specific time to get things done, especially when you have a family. I’m only 22, so I don’t have those responsibilities, which does make it harder to be more disciplined.
