[videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
Hi I have a hypothetical question the wise heads here may be able to answer. Lets say you travel around your country, producing short videos at different locations. Lets say, market research (youtube) show that your concept is extremely popular. Lets say a local tv station contact you and want exclusive rights to your videos, in your country, for one year, to list on there online site. This means you can't list your videos on local sites that they see as competition (other tv station sites, newspaper sites) Lets say they ask you to name your price. If you have produced these videos with your own funds, and know that to do them commercially would cost anything from $1500-$3000 per video WHAT DO YOU CHARGE THE TV STATION TO LIST YOUR VIDEOS EXCLUSIVELY ON THEIR SITE IN YOUR COUNTRY? Do you charge all of what it would cost to make them commercially? Or do you take into consideration the advertising revenue they may make from your content over a year, and charge more...or less? Or does one take into account that, due to this tv station being the biggest in your country, the publicity in itself, will be beneficial to your brand Where is online video at? Can we get the money that we charge to do commercial work? I really need to know...and soon...hypothetically :)

I would do the following: Charge for less than what it will cost them to produce it on their own, and push for a lot of ads and awareness for your brand.

RE: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
As long as you limit the deal for a year, you can always open it and change the terms later. Assuming that they will make money from your videos, next round you can improve your position. There is another option - maybe now you can ask more money, if they are very eager to get your content. Only you know the answer, cause you are sitting with them and look them in the eye. With the information you provided, I'd go with my first option. *sent from handheld Kfir Pravda -Original Message- From: Mark Shea [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Sent: 04-Oct-07 9:51 Subject: RE: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info thanks kfir for your reply Hypothetically speaking, they are keen to see me happy, to continue providing them content.

On 10/3/07, Bill Cammack [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Amongst the YouTubers that came to Pixelodeon was Caitlin Hill, aka TheHill88 http://flickr.com/photos/ekai/543134602/. Recently, she posted a video to YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KQv4koF1n0 which was a response to other people's responses to her video called Chris Crocker + TV Show = A Load of Crock http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYGmO_zCU6QNR=1. Now I know Caitlin's one of the YouTubers that's doing a character. She does mostly goofy entertainment skits. If she's acting in these two videos, I'll tip my hat, because she seems perfectly serious to me. There are lots of things I find interesting about these videos, including the fact that she seems to have a good grasp on the difference between laughing at and laughing with and she's basically putting down the exact same type of videos that she does herself. She also says that she liked [her work] way more before she cared what other people thought. At this point, AFAIK, she's in the YouTube Partner program. Her punchline at the end of the Crocker video is Please realize this. Reality TV is like YouTube... Need I say more? Granted, I don't watch many YouTube Character videos, so I have no idea whether lots of people are saying this, but (again, if we're to take her seriously, and I've chosen to do that after having watched both videos) her stance seems to be opposing the stance of anything that anybody does is worthwhile to anybody but themselves and anybody who gets sponsored or chosen to do something has been deemed a quality performer. I find it to be a very progressive and insightful stance from someone who specializes in deliberately-goofy videos. Obviously, Caitlin has been exposed to more of the industry, and that may be coloring her view of sit in front of your webcam videos. I wanted to post this in light of some people mentioning that the recent conversations in this group have been about money. How do we get paid? How do we monetize? How do we get sponsored? How do we grow and maintain an audience? How do we get more hits? How do we get more distribution? What kinds of ads should we run? I agree from my own perspective with what Caitlin had to say about caring what people think. That's partially why what was going to be a personal battle with Vergel Evans http://Lx7.ca became Vlog Deathmatch: Video Music Challenge http://vlogdeathmatch.blogspot.com/2007/05/bill-cammacks-official-music-video.html . I had basically bored myself to death doing videos that conformed to what the public was consuming or what was being done in the space. I love that particular video I did with ActionGirl, because it was fun, she brought fantastic energy to the project, and I was consistently, progressively creative during the time we shot it and I edited it. That's more my style and what I got involved with video to do in the first place. I also really enjoyed the diversity and creativity of the other 19 entries in the contest, which I really think of more as a festival. I've also had the *rare* reaction of Damn... I wish *I* had made that video when I see Jay Smooth's creativity in his videoblog Ill Doctrine http://www.illdoctrine.com/2007/06/the_ill_doctrine_dipset_anthem.html http://www.illdoctrine.com/2007/07/john_lee_hooker_i_get_money_fr.html. I guess it all comes down to what YOU would do if you weren't concerned with numbers or viewers or getting sponsored or paying bills through videoblogging... the exact opposite of what we've been discussing lately. Maybe you're already doing exactly what you want. Maybe your videos are already personally satisfying to you. I've been getting A LOT of satisfaction cutting Scriggity http://scriggity.com with Drew Olanoff @ Shauna. Just last night, Clintus McGintus told us he was with the program to do Scriggity epidodes, so it's just getting better and better. :D I wonder what the percentage is between people that actually enjoy what they're doing and people that do their shows specifically to get hits, sponsorship or attention. If you're not going to do videos that *you* like or even LOVE, make sure the ROI's worth it. Otherwise, you might be better off keeping your day job and making videos that are completely unmarketable, yet personally fulfilling. -- Bill http://billcammack.com -- http://geekentertainment.tv [Non-text portions of this message have

Lets say a local tv station contact you and want exclusive rights to your videos, in your country, for one year, to list on there online site. This means you can't list your videos on local sites that they see as competition (other tv station sites, newspaper sites) If a TV station or *anybody* wants exclusive rights to your videos, you've become a producer for them for the time being. Your consideration of payment should include the value to them of not having to hire a producer (or production TEAM, depending on how intricate your work is) as well as how much YOU will benefit from being associated with the group making you the offer. Then again, that has to do with videos you're GOING to create, and the time it's going to take you to create them. Time is Money. Period. When you're doing something for somebody, you're not doing something for yourself (work or pleasure), and you're not doing something for someone that would pay you what your rate is for whatever you're skilled in doing. Working for someone for less than your normal rate is either a gesture of wanting to do business with them even though you know they can't afford you, a gesture of friendship, or in the worst case, a gesture of charity. Lets say they ask you to name your price. If you have produced these videos with your own funds, and know that to do them commercially would cost anything from $1500-$3000 per video WHAT DO YOU CHARGE THE TV STATION TO LIST YOUR VIDEOS EXCLUSIVELY ON THEIR SITE IN YOUR COUNTRY? Well, something like that varies depending on the market you're in. In the USA, New York is the #1 television market. It's going to cost you way more to get something made here than, say, in Arkansas. So depending on where you're standing, regardless of how much your time is worth to you, that particular market won't sustain your rate. Then again, the work is probably easier and less quality-based anyway, if that's worth anything to the producer. Do you charge all of what it would cost to make them commercially? Or do you take into consideration the advertising revenue they may make from your content over a year, and charge more...or less? I like what Kfir had to say in this situation. If there's a benefit to you of being in an exclusive relationship with this station, such as the station publicizing your work AND YOU utilizing their promo department for an entire year, factor that in and charge them less since you don't have to advertise yourself. It's like the difference between being staff and freelance. You charge more as a freelancer because you have to cover your own benefits, and you're normally brought in during crunch-time or to fix someone else's mistakes. When there's a story about fly-fishing, they can get the staffers to do it... plus, they don't have to pay the staff overtime. If there's no benefit to you in being associated with the TV station, charge them whatever the market rates for production are. If there's potentially LESS benefit, for instance, you do something for them for a flat fee, then they turn around and put your video in some revenue-sharing setup and make way more on it than they paid you to make it, you might want to charge them more than usual. Or does one take into account that, due to this tv station being the biggest in your country, the publicity in itself, will be beneficial to your brand It depends on what the publicity consists of, and how much of it will translate into benefits for you after your deal with the station is over. For instance, depending on where you are in your career, if you could get paid more to create a music video that plays on a band's myspace account or get paid less to create a music video that plays on MTV, VH1, etc, you might take the lower-paying but way more prestegious gig. In this case, they're asking you to name your price. Tell them what you think your work is worth. If it's over their budget, they'll tell you so, and then either you'll work with them or you won't. If you actually want to work with them regardless, the negotiations are over before they started. Where is online video at? Can we get the money that we charge to do commercial work? This has nothing to do with online video vs MSM or Corporate Video. It never did and it never will. Time is Money. Period. I really need to know...and soon...hypothetically :) Even within MSM, Time is Money. At one point, while I was permalancing for an ad agency 32 stories above Manhattan with the ad execs ordering sushi for lunch while we were cutting $600,000 commercials, I received an offer to interview with a different agency for a

Re: [videoblogging] Re: What is online video worth - contract info
Thanks for your indepth answer Bill, you are dead right, time is money. I am constantly being contacted by websites and broadcasters (in the US) wanting to use my stories. At first I was keen to get them out there, now it's like 'show me the money'! I don't need anymore publicity that doesn't pay the bills! Youtube is the king of online vid, I'm a partner, and (although ad revenue sharing will take time to kick in) you really cannot beat the instant comments and ratings the youtube community provide. It is a real litmus test in regard to which stories actually work. If I do a job for a national broadcaster, they pay me. to own copyright of the finished product. But I think online video is changing this, we can own our vids and show them across several platforms, whether it be online at youtube, revver and metacafe, or on a cable station. I think this is great, because like a songwriter, we can earn revenue from our vids, for their entire life, and not just be paid a lump sum to kiss our babies goodbye. So if one broadcaster no longer pays all the funds to have something made (which they then own) do we accept that revenue will come from several sources, or from several regions? Time is money, but in the end, the market decides what something is worth, I have no idea how much money a particular tv station's website expects to make from individual videos. In the end it will come down to a good ol' barter. I will keep you up to date with how it goes. It's great though, this is how I envisaged online video changing the rules. Where a one man production company, with a good concept, can provide content to the largest tv station in his hypothetical part of the world.

Lets say a local tv station contact you and want exclusive rights to your videos, in your country, for one year, to list on there online site. This means you can't list your videos on local sites that they see as competition (other tv station sites, newspaper sites) If a TV station or *anybody* wants exclusive rights to your videos, you've become a producer for them for the time being. Your consideration of payment should include the value to them of not having to hire a producer (or production TEAM, depending on how intricate your work is) as well as how much YOU will benefit from being associated with the group making you the offer. Then again, that has to do with videos you're GOING to create, and the time it's going to take you to create them. Time is Money. Period. When you're doing something for somebody, you're not doing something for yourself (work or pleasure), and you're not doing something for someone that would pay you what your rate is for whatever you're skilled in doing. Working for someone for less than your normal rate is either a gesture of wanting to do business with them even though you know they can't afford you, a gesture of friendship, or in the worst case, a gesture of charity. Lets say they ask you to name your price. If you have produced these videos with your own funds, and know that to do them commercially would cost anything from $1500-$3000 per video WHAT DO YOU CHARGE THE TV STATION TO LIST YOUR VIDEOS EXCLUSIVELY ON THEIR SITE IN YOUR COUNTRY? Well, something like that varies depending on the market you're in. In the USA, New York is the #1 television market. It's going to cost you way more to get something made here than, say, in Arkansas. So depending on where you're standing, regardless of how much your time is worth to you, that particular market won't sustain your rate. Then again, the work is probably easier and less quality-based anyway, if that's worth anything to the producer. Do you charge all of what it would cost to make them commercially? Or do you take into consideration the advertising revenue they may make from your content over a year, and charge more...or less? I like what Kfir had to say in this situation. If there's a benefit to you of being in an exclusive relationship with this station, such as the station publicizing your work AND YOU utilizing their promo department for an entire year, factor that in and charge them less since you don't have to advertise yourself. It's like the difference between being staff and freelance. You charge more as a freelancer because you have to cover your own benefits, and you're normally brought in during crunch-time or to fix someone else's mistakes. When there's a story about fly-fishing, they can get the staffers to do it... plus, they don't

Can we get the money that we charge to do commercial work? TV stations work with a staff. You are handicapped by people that give their videos away just to be seen. You are in the middle. Average TV station will bundle the production with the ad time buy. So a ballpark estimate of cost to produce a 30 second spot is $200.00 - $600.00. Whether they are in the field or on stage, they might shoot for 30 mins or 8 hours and still cut a 30 sec spot. To match what a TV station's cost might be: Local - $1000.00 - $1800.00+ each video/year 4 or 5 min video Country - $1000.00 - $.00+ each video/year In both cases I am talking about video (product) you have already shot. If you start producing for them, it costs what it costs. Basically with shows completed, you are doing the same thing Getty images or a video library does. Selling/pricing determined by end use. In general, all things relative, Video that is produced for the web by a video production company is priced the same as video for broadcast. I really need to know...and soon...hypothetically :) Get an agent/rep or contact a local ad agency. You need to have someone on your side negotiating this. IMO what you want to establish is a way to license this to other affiliates of the network or to any other interested party. Oh, and add the cost of representation to the price you establish.

He started posting videos to his blog after he saw what I was doing with Lo-Fi Saint Louis. His reporting is very good and has broken several stories that have been followed up in both local and national main stream media. He's become an important source of information on the activities of local government and a vocal critic of local main stream media. He doesn't really make much money with Pub Def (short for Public Defender) but the cost overhead of doing it is so low that he doesn't really need to make that much money at it. He's exactly the kind of grass roots journalist that our little media revolution has made possible. He's currently moving all his videos to Blip.tv (something I suggested he do months ago.) But I can understand why he wanted to continue to use YouTube because it's so well known and has so much traffic. Anyway I thought that this story was relevant to the discussion here especially in light of the Hip-Hop Violinist story, as some of the circumstances are similar. If you get a moment go check out some of the work he's doing at Pub- Def and if you have any ideas about how he might go about dealing with this issue I'm sure he would be open to hearing them. But I also wanted to introduce him to the group (he's not a participant here) because I think that the kind of work he is doing is really important.

Now I know Caitlin's one of the YouTubers that's doing a character. She does mostly goofy entertainment skits. If she's acting in these two videos, I'll tip my hat, because she seems perfectly serious to me. There are lots of things I find interesting about these videos, including the fact that she seems to have a good grasp on the difference between laughing at and laughing with and she's basically putting down the exact same type of videos that she does herself. She also says that she liked [her work] way more before she cared what other people thought. At this point, AFAIK, she's in the YouTube Partner program. Her punchline at the end of the Crocker video is Please realize this. Reality TV is like YouTube... Need I say more? Granted, I don't watch many YouTube Character videos, so I have no idea whether lots of people are saying this, but (again, if we're to take her seriously, and I've chosen to do that after having watched both videos) her stance seems to be opposing the stance of anything that anybody does is worthwhile to anybody but themselves and anybody who gets sponsored or chosen to do something has been deemed a quality performer. I find it to be a very progressive and insightful stance from someone who specializes in deliberately-goofy videos. Obviously, Caitlin has been exposed to more of the industry, and that may be coloring her view of sit in front of your webcam videos. I wanted to post this in light of some people mentioning that the recent conversations in this group have been about money. How do we get paid? How do we monetize? How do we get sponsored? How do we grow and maintain an audience? How do we get more hits? How do we get more distribution? What kinds of ads should we run? I agree from my own perspective with what Caitlin had to say about caring what people think. That's partially why what was going to be a personal battle with Vergel Evans http://Lx7.ca became Vlog Deathmatch: Video Music Challenge http://vlogdeathmatch.blogspot.com/2007/05/bill-cammacks-official-music-video.html. I had basically bored myself to death doing videos that conformed to what the public was consuming or what was being done in the space. I love that particular video I did with ActionGirl, because it was fun, she brought fantastic energy to the project, and I was consistently, progressively creative during the time we shot it and I edited it. That's more my style and what I got involved with video to do in the first place. I also really enjoyed the diversity and creativity of the other 19 entries in the contest, which I really think of more as a festival. I've also had the *rare* reaction of Damn... I wish *I* had made that video when I see Jay Smooth's creativity in his videoblog Ill Doctrine http://www.illdoctrine.com/2007/06/the_ill_doctrine_dipset_anthem.html http://www.illdoctrine.com/2007/07/john_lee_hooker_i_get_money_fr.html. I guess it all comes down to what YOU would do if you weren't concerned with numbers or viewers or getting sponsored or paying bills through videoblogging... the exact opposite of what we've been discussing lately. Maybe you're already doing exactly what you want. Maybe your videos are already personally satisfying to you.

Otherwise, you might be better off keeping your day job and making videos that are completely unmarketable, yet personally fulfilling. -- Bill http://billcammack.com

Re: [videoblogging] Re: What is online video worth - contract info
thanks border collie, spoke with a local entertainment lawyer, they don't know, closest case they have dealt with is organising contracts for online video produced by big companies (eg telecommunication companies) In this case, the rate was commercial rates. I cant see there ad revenue for the vids being huge due to current cpm rates. But I really think 2008 we will start to see that change. Start of the 2007, if you told a website they must pay to list your content, they would laugh at you, it is interesting that now websites are willing to pay. I have already been paid to list my vids on an American site associated with a travel show (the amount really only covered my time associated with uploading, but across 20+ vids, made it worthwhile) But when a website wants exclusive rights for your country, then it is cutting out further deals with the competition, exclusivity should = $$.

Hi Pat, I'm a little puzzled because I did have a camcorder that recorded in .asf WMM2 handled it just fine. It is a M$ format.

Get a free copy of Square5 MPEG Streamclip http://www.squared5.com Streamclip can't open .asf but it can handle .mp4 If that doesn't work (and I think it will cuz it is a dang good program) there are other options. One of those is an on-line converter like the one at http://media-convert.com Just upload the video and download an converted copy in the format of your choice.

Anyhow, my problem is this. The camera records video in ASF format. I have Windows Media 11 with the VCM and Bonus Codec Packs and it can't find a codec to render the video. Not sure if the problem lies with the audio portion or the video portion GSpot (Which, for those who don't know, is a utility that can be used to give specific details about a video when it comes to being able to decode it, what codec was used to encode it, and whether or not you have the codec on your system to render it) says that the video is a _COMPLIANT_ MPEG-4 video HOWEVER it also says that the codec status is UNDETERMINED. It is the codec status that STUMPS THE HELL OUT OF ME. Screenshots of GSpot's findings can be posted on the web and/or put in the files section if need be (I've also got a minute long video I can post too). The screen resolution is 640 x 480 (Which is the factory default setting for some oddball reason). It is because Windows Media can't render it that I can't get another player to play it (I've tried EVERYTHING under the freakin' sun from MPC to obscure players like GOMplayer (Which like MPC will play everything under the sun AS WELL AS partial downloads from file sharing networks). I've also tried converting it to a traditional WMV video using WME and Movie Maker (More on MM in another post as I have another problem there too) and tried converting it to AVI using STOIK VideoPak and VirtualDub. I've also tried converting it to MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 using TMPGEnc (Which usually works on just about anything related to Windows Media). And I've even tried converting it straight to MP4 using Videora and Jodix. All have been fruitless and out of futility. Just moments ago (Now that I'm back amongst the online world), I went digging and Googling on the web to see if there was a codec and/or plugin out there that would work.

hi all, apologies for those that get this as a cross-post from cc-license mailing list, but this is interesting follow-up to a story and legal case that was discussed in this videoblogging group some time back. interesting outcome markus Begin forwarded message: A relatively recent relevant case from New York: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/19/arts/design/19phot.html? ex=1300424400en=f7e05d1e10cf9b14ei=5090partner=rssuserlandemc=rss When Erno Nussenzweig, an Orthodox Jew and retired diamond merchant from Union City, N.J., saw his picture last year in the exhibition catalog, he called his lawyer. And then he sued Mr. diCorcia and Pace for exhibiting and publishing the portrait without permission and profiting from it financially. The suit sought an injunction to halt sales and publication of the photograph, as well as $500,000 in compensatory damages and $1.5 million in punitive damages. The suit was dismissed last month by a New York State Supreme Court judge who said that the photographer's right to artistic expression trumped the subject's privacy rights. But to many artists, the fact that the case went so far is significant. The practice of street photography has a long tradition in the United States, with documentary and artistic strains, in big cities and small towns. Photographers usually must obtain permission to photograph on private property including restaurants and hotel lobbies but the freedom to photograph in public has long been taken for granted. And it has had a profound impact on the history of the medium. Without it, Lee Friedlander would not have roamed the streets of New York photographing strangers, and Walker Evans would never have produced his series of subway portraits in the 1940's. via Joi Ito -- Markus Sandy http://apperceive.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

One of the tutorial steps is down though, and I think its the one that I need the most help with right now, which is #3: Basic Video Tips. Any links you can suggest there? I have not even purchased a camera yet, so those links would be most appreciated! And Irina, I'm blushing! ;) I'm just your average gear-head nerd! --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com videoblogging%40yahoogroups.com, Heath [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Welcome indeed! ask away!

Irina recommended that I join this group because you are the most knowledgable videoblogging info source around. Thanks! I am a complete video novice and am trying to read up on as much as I can before trying to start my own. As of right now, I'm starting from scratch on this project, so any tips you have or experiences you can share for a new vblogger would be fantastic! welcome erica. As Schlomo said, a good place to start is freevlog.org. Once yoou get started, just ask any questions you have.
