[videoblogging] Screencast: Demystifying Web Analytics
Hi Folks: I just finished a screencast - a primer to understanding web analytics using google analytics. http://beth.typepad.com/beths_blog/2007/06/new-screencast-.html I included a wiki companion with lots of useful articles on the topic http://analytics.wikispaces.com/ Now, onto researching video analytics Beth On 6/14/07, Steve Watkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I read on newteevee about this video analytics service just the other day: http://newteevee.com/2007/06/12/vidmetrix-epidemiology-for-viral-videos/ That or alternatives would certainly be potentially useful for people who put their videos on a variety of sites. If I was into this stuff myself Id probably take a close interest in other things not directly related to the videos themselves, like how many people link to your site, google pagerank, general buzz about your stuff, number of comments on the site. Cheers Steve Elbows --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com videoblogging%40yahoogroups.com, Roxanne Darling [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am looking forward to your filtering through all of the different choices Beth. We are in the early stages of this, and it is a very imprecise (and frustrating) activity. We've used GA, Urchin, Feedburner and now Blip for measurements. Along with cross-posting some stuff to YouTube. We hosted our videos on a separate media server (sep from the WP install) up until a month ago. We have found that GA and Urchin do not agree; many say GA under reports. On our media server, we have Urchin data that shows the actual data transferred per file type and per file path. We trust that more than hits or views as the TV Tonic service downloads media in multiple sessions that can generate wildly inflated numbers for some criteria. Seems that actual bandwidth tells us what files were being downloaded. The main thing is that all of these companies use their own (fluctuating) algorithms. So for example, one day they might count all requests for a file from iTunes, but the next day they might disregard all requests for the file after the first request, within a 24 hour time period. (I heard this from a source.) Thing is, my Mom watches our show in iTunes. Whenever anyone comes over to the house, she shows them a few episodes too. From an aggregator's point of view, it may look like one person viewing same files multiple times. In reality it is more like the magazine sitting on the doctor's office coffee table - in fact more people are watching it. Feedburner went through one of these tweaks a while back and people saw their subscriber base change by 20-30% in 24 hours. :-) YouTube provides some stats on views, and there is also this service that is providing stats for YouTube, Metacafe, MySpace, Yahoo, Revver, and AOL video: http://www.tubemogul.com TubeMogul is command central for those that publish and monitor online video, as well as for organizations that advertise within online video. My friends at Aweli are also working on an independent stats verification service; hopefully they'll chime in here too. Gathering data across so many services and then trying to find those who have republished our feed and provide no stats...is leading me to worry less and less about stats. After all, it's not so much about how many watched, but how were they affected by the media?

[videoblogging] Announcing The Everyday Heroes Project: (A Summer Project for New Media)
Announcing The Everyday Heroes Project: (A Summer Project for New Media Enthusiasts) NBC's epic drama Heroes chronicles the lives of ordinary people who discover they possess extraordinary abilities. I believe this concept can be extended outside of the realm of science-fiction and into our daily lives. During the course of the summer of 2007, help us tell the stories of everyday people who are Everyday Heroes. Think about a typical day, all the people you pass by in the course of doing what you do, those to whom you might say Good Morning; the people who work in your favorite eating establishments, the people who you see in the bank, the gym, people you pass by on the street, people who attend your school, people who you work with, the people in your car pool, the people around you who just fade to black when you are engaged in your daily lives. Yes, those people. My belief is that everyone has a story. Some of them are amazing people with amazing stories. Some people have overcome some great odds before the point where they got to be standing there to speak with you. Some of these people have taken on major challenges and overcame them. Some of these people inspire others. Some are people who challenge the status quo, who make a difference. Every one has a story to tell. But you need to be there to listen to it. One cool aspect is that once you hear these stories, you will never look at that person the same way ever again. So go outside and take your video cameras and your microphones with you. Join our Everyday Heroes Project and help provide a voice to the people who are part of your everyday lives, but until now have been silent. Post these stories to the web, to Blip.tv or YouTube or Brightcove. Tag them everydayheroes and share them. Help people tell their stories. In the process you would have helped make the world a better place, you would have gotten to know some more people, and you would have discovered a few Everyday Heroes. There could be worse ways to spend the summer. And PLEASE help spread the word about The EveryDay Heros Project. (from: http://pulverblog.pulver.com/archives/007146.html)
Re: [videoblogging] Question on How Do You Do The Blurred Face in a Video
If you're not using a program with a plugin or effect tailored to do this, the usual process in a basic NLE or effects program is to layer the video on top of itself, make a matte or mask for the area you want to blur on the top layer (hopefully your program lets you keyframe the position of the matte to follow the person's face), then blur the appropriate layer (bottom if the mask creates a hole for the blurred area, top if it mattes out the unblurred area). Be sure to feather the mask/matte somehow. I know nothing about ulead but most programs have free or cheap plugins you can download - you might do a web search for one that does this in your program. ___ Brook Hinton film/video/audio art www.brookhinton.com vlog links are here TRACE GARDEN now available in flash format on Blip! tracegarden.blip.tv [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Re: [videoblogging] Non Commercial vlog funding experiment
If I'm to continue with my vlog, I really need to start making some money, so I can justify the time spent NOT working on other commercial projects that feed me. So I have set up a fundable pledge, whereby viewers and subscribers to my vids, can donate to allow me the time and resources to edit another month of stories. I'm sure there are many in this group interested in following this experiment Mark www.overlander.tv you clearly state your goal. looks good. obviously, reaching out to the people who really know you should be the first people you go after. Jay _ If my target of $2,000 is met, I will have the time and resources to devote myself to editing four new videos. They will be: 1) A photographic journey with a Belfast Photographer displaying the changes that are occurring in Northern Ireland. 2) A look into the life of legendary Australian Green's Senator, Bob Brown, and why he chose to live in Tasmania, the location of the World's first Greens Political Party. 3) An interview with a Video Artist in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 4) A story on the Cave Dwellers of Sacre Monte, Granada, Spain Anyone who pledges support, will (if they wish) have their details listed on our Sponsors page. One can also nominate which video they wish to support. I have set the minimum pledge amount quite low, if you can afford to donate more, please feel free to do so. -- Here I am http://jaydedman.com The best video from Pixelodeon right here: http://tinyurl.com/yp8zyl Check out the latest project: http://politicalvideo.org 500 hours of George Bush speeches!!

I get a message like this almost every week from some service or another.

[videoblogging] Re: need a videocamera recommendation: good in low light, price $300
Hey Deirdré, I don't think a sub $300 cam thats good in low light exists. When you buy a more expensive camera part of what you are paying for is better low light performance and all the things that make it possible (larger ccds, better optics etc). Some of the lower end Canons and Sonys have pretty good low light performance but they are priced just above the $300 mark. Check camcorderinfo.com for some pretty good reviews and sample footage of most of the cameras available now. They do extensive low light testing too.

[videoblogging] Content Runneth Over On My Sidebar
Hi everyone: I wonder what is wrong with Yahoo! Groups. It seems as though I can reply to messages, but can't post THIS simple message. THIS IS THE THIRD ATTEMPT. How conviently weird. :( (Sarcastic Comment) Apologies YET AGAIN if this is a dupe. Cheers :D Pat -- Forwarded message -- From: Patrick Cook [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Jun 25, 2007 9:30 AM Subject: HELP: Content Runneth Over On My Sidebar To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Hi everyone: Boy I could sure use a little help. On my page for The Pat Cook Show (Video Version) @ http://thepctvshow.blogspot.com/ I've got content that just simply runs off the edge of the sidebar, causing it to be partially chopped off. I've tried resizing what I can, but some of it simply can't be resized to fit into the sidebar without being chopped off. On the page for my audio podcast @ http://thepcradioshow.blogspot.com/ I've got a section for webrings that gets chopped off because of the way the JavaScript from Webring.com is set up. And the frustrating part of that is I can't alter the size of that either. The same thing happens in the main message body area as well, but I can control that with little to no problem at all. The sidebar however is a completely different issue altogether. So, short of either switching hosts or experimenting with the Blogger templates in an effort to find the right one, what might you guys suggest I do to fix this problem (BTW I am aware I need to add the RSS feed to my video page. I will do that as soon as I post this)?

Re: [videoblogging] videos embedded into emails?
Hi Pat: This is not exactly an answer, but it is a solution. You could make a screen shot of the video and have the image linked to your page where it would be viewable by anyone with a compatible browser. An html e- mail with an embedded hotlink is probably the safest option. Hope that helps, Andrew --- Andrew Darlow Editor, The Imaging Buffet http://www.imagingbuffet.com Chief Cook: http://www.bigdiner.com For testing... you'd have to create an HTML e-mail, with the proper embed or applet code in it. If you're able to write the HTML by hand... i.e., write all the tags yourself instead of using some WYSIWYG... then should be able to set up the test. The real question is how will e-mail applications and webmail systems handle it. I suspect most of them will block it by default. I wouldn't think so if it was a Flash video like from YouTube or some other TRUSTED site. Although Outlook might not... it seem to be one huge security hole. Outlook is and always has been a security problem child IN OF ITSELF, which is I only use it for reading posting to USENET newsgroups. I *NEVER* use it for email (Even though I have POP access with Gmail). Layman's translation - Microsoft needs to take some virtual TNT to it and simply BLOW IT UP. So you never know with that. (BTW... there's no such thing ans an e-mail virus... those things people call e-mail viruses only affect Microsoft Outlook!) See above. Getting back to the subject at hand, I should think that as long as it's a Flash-based video from a trusted site such as YouTube, there really shouldn't be a problem. Just my opinion though... Cheers :D [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
