  The time slots are already allocated and paid for. As I
  mentioned, the existing campaign is exceeded by the time slots
  allocated and we are looking to fill the available airtime.
  
  Notwithstanding the above, I would love to see the results
  from Michael, and we may be able to slot his in when they are
  available.
  
  If there is anyone who has the tools and knowledge to put
  together an "animated" advert? I have a background video
  (flying seagulls) in mind to which the OOo logo could be
  transitioned in with follow up text and images and then a
  voice over and soundtrack added. I have no idea where to start
  with this.

  I did this video for FLISOL, but of course, is a very
  amateurish work using cinelerra:
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54Fn5hprBxg

  

The video is very nice!

Hi Michael,

the ad can also be used on the web, I think we can put it on
Openoffice.org. And that will get it lots of views. For a web video
there are no such time requirements, it just depends on the message
and the purpose. 

What's your time zone? We can schedule a call this week. I'm CET.

Regards,
Rosana

would discuss how to make a regional cooperation possible and how to 
come to results that we can discuss then globally.
Let me know your thoughts on this. If you have any points you would like 
to have discussed during the Tuesday call, please send them to us, we 
will take them into account.
Also feel free to schedule a call with the times that work best for you. 
Maybe they all work well for the rest too :)


All the best,
Rosana

Unfortunately the poll only have your time availability so is hard to choose
just on your a 6 slot timezone. Only avialable time for me was the latest
slot which agree is hard  for  Japan. I would suggest to update the poll
into a full 12-16 slot platform.

Re: [marketing] Strategic Marketing Plan Call

2010-11-25 Thread Rosana Ardila



  
  
Hi all,

I set up a doodle poll to see if we can organize the call/IRC
meeting for next week:
http://doodle.com/atk9y2pdmp3gm6sq
I will only be available the first half of the week, but you can
also talk without me.
I think it is going to be hard to find a suitable time for all
(Japan and Mexico are far appart). If these times don't work for
you, let me know. What we can always do is have several calls and
try to sync somehow.

cheers,
Rosana

Re: [marketing] Strategic Marketing Plan Call

2010-11-24 Thread Rosana Ardila

Khirano, all,

This is actually a great starting point!
I also agree with you on the idea of invition other community
members to help us create the SMP. What I think we should do first,
is to create a framework to make participation easier with the
marcons and the marketing list.
For example, we could have internal polls asking other what they
think we should go, etc. So that we pre-structure the discussion
around the SMP. I think that would help us to move forward faster.
What do you think about that?
Btw, Louis and Rafaella would like to set up a call or an IRC
meeting next week, so we can discuss this also there.

Regards,
Rosana

Hi Peter and Rosana,

Will it be SMP 2010-2015, five-year plan?

How about deciding on its time frame first?
:)
Just my idea.

OK, I think OpenOffice.org Japanese Language Project can contribute to
a new SMP since we have got support organizations like ODPG [1], and
we have got many enterprise users and several local government users
like an recent example, Yamagata prefectural government, who is
planning to adopt OpenOffice.org as next PC office software for fiscal
2011 [2].

We have made a wiki page listing major deployments since 2003 in Japan
[3]. We have learned a lot from them and organized a strong marketing
project [4]

Our marketing project members are from various fields, such as
opensource software solution companies, solution providers,
independent designers, translators, consultants, local government
workers etc. So we can share ideas on SMP and contibute to a new SMP.

Why don't we the Marketing Project announce "call for participation in
creating a new SMP" on annou...@openoffice.org? Then marcons can
translate the announcement into their language and organize
contributors.

Hi Peter,

Let's get the people interested in creating the SMP together and discuss 
how we can move forward. Could you ping the marcons and see who wants to 
get started?


I underdstand that most of the people that were in Budapest might not 
have enough time to collaborate here, but maybe there's also others that 
would like to work on the SMP and weren't in Budapest.


So for anyone interested, just let us know and let's get together.

Most attendees of the SMP workshop in Budapest are with the TDF/LibO 
now, hence likely unavailable. I'm estimating the effort to work on a 
new SMP with three to six man-months in total, hence it would require 
to have a fair number of contributers.



Who would like to discuss this in a call?


Yes, first topics to discuss would be recruiting contributers and 
setting up a team.

you likely have been noticing, that the founding of the TDF has 
significantly reduced contributers to the MP. As well, I have been 
posting a couple of weeks ago, that I'm more or less on sick leave 
as I had an injury with my left hand, consequently I can only use 
the right one (fortunately I'm right-handed) to type. Hence, the 
page you are referring too has the following note on top:
"The next Marketing ConfCall is deferred to an yet unknown point in

The splint I'm wearing at the moment is hopefully removed next 
Tuesday, hence I'm hoping to be able to work fully again on Wednesday.


 Looking at the schedule there hasn't been any proposed date for 
it. AFAIK there were some work being addressed on the Strategic 
Marketing Plan and updates happening on the branding and tech events.




So, before thinking about ambitious projects like the SMP, I would 
like to do things in the right order. First of all, I want to find 
out, how many active contributers we still have for the MP. If we 
find out, there are still enough, we can resume with the conference 
calls again.


Before the TDF has happened, I already had an discussion with 
Florian, that it needs more than two continually contributing 
persons to successfully drive the MP. There's indeed a significant 
basic load in administrative work to manage. My idea was --and 
Florian agreed-- to reorganize the MP completely. Rather than 
continuing the (for the MP) insufficient concept of lead and 
co-lead, it would IMHO be better to refine responsibilities in 
order to be able to assign clearly defined topical fields to 
several people. I'm thinking about categories like press officer, 
standards, education, events, branding, website maintenance etc. If 
we can manage to set-up such team we should also be well prepared 
to work on the SMP.


Best regards,
Peter



Ok Thanks for the info, hope you can get well soon. I am not sure 
about this multiple titles disemination, but then again would be 
interesting to watch. Maybe it works.

Re: [marketing] Possible Logo Designs

2010-10-28 Thread Rosana Ardila



  
  
Hi Connor,

It's great to see you're interested in OpenOffice.org and that you
want to help out :) Welcome aboard!
As Ivan explained it's better to upload attachments to a wiki or a
website and then link to them. 
I would also like to see your designs, we are open for new ideas and
creativity. But as Ivan also explained the logo isn't likely to
change soon: so many people around the world know it and recognize
it. And that's why we are also working on logo usage guidelines to
help community members use the logo consistently. You can find the
draft of those guidelines here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Branding_Initiative/branding_guidelines_draft

But we have many other places where you can be creative and where
poeple from all over the world can see your work: our website, our
wiki, marketing materials, etc. So there's plenty of room for you to
be creative! For example, how can we create marketing materials that
look cool for people your know, like for example your friends? You
can design flyers, postcards, or cool graphics for the web. We'd
love to see them! You can also subscribe to the Art list:
a...@marketing.openoffice.org

Let me know if you have any questions and don't hesitate to show us
your ideas.

Regards,
Rosana

NOTE: I hope this email is in the correct section for sending

Out of interest I have designed a few logo's, that are almost the same each
with a detail being either added or modified, for future (development)
releases. In this case, the logo's have been designed for a possible
OpenOffice.org 4. I hope that this is legal, and would like to ask you to
consider, or at least view the design's. They are quite similar to the new
'OpenOffice.org 3' logo, as if there is to be an OpenOffice.org 4, or any
future OpenOffice.org releases beyond (at the moment) '3.3' I don't suspect
you would want a dramatic change.

I am a 13 year old, who uses OpenOffice.org frequently, and would like to
hear your feedback. I will include the design's as attachments in this
email.

  
  
Unfortunately the mailing list does not allow attachments - please
upload your work to the OpenOffice.org wiki [1], or send us a link if
you can upload the file(s) somewhere online.

Although we're interested in seeing what you've come up with, it's
highly unlikely that the OpenOffice.org logo will change any time
soon; this year the new OpenOffice.org logo was announced [2], and
since the last one was with us for 10 years, this one's probably going
to be around for a while. Please consider joining the branding list
(brand...@marketing.openoffice.org) where the branding strategy of
OpenOffice.org is being formulated if you're interested in this area.

+1, the foldables are easier to transport.

Do you need any help with the graphics?

When should we order the discs to have them at the OOoCon?



  
  1 Euro is around 280-290 HUF this time.

  
  
  So, we're talking about 400-600 € including printing and delivery,

  Thanks a lot - reading your other mail in this thread I agree that
  we don't need to add the logo.
  
  
  A string "2000 - 2010" could be added nevertheless as additional
  value for the people holding the discs in their hands. Our
  campaign will better be kept in mind if we combine it with the
  Anniversary ("Do you remember the flying discs some years ago?" -
  "Yes, wasn't it this great campaign for the 10th Anniversary of
  OpenOffice.org?").
  
  
  This string is just a suggestion, but for the colors I strongly
  suggest to use the original blue tone (at least it's CMYK
  representation) on white discs.
  
  
  I don't see an advantage for the white symbol on the blue discs
  (we should include the inverted gull orb in the guidelines),
  especially if this can't support our branding color.

Thanks.  0,44 EUR apeice seems ok.


Please remember printing costs, postage and tax. As Rosana stated on 
the wiki page, the costs are about 480€ per 500 discs, meaning 0,96 
EUR per disc.




Do they fly well?  The spec says 160
mm, but how much do they weigh?  You need over 150 g to play disc golf
decently, if that is a consideration.


In this size they will probably not fly as good as larger and heavier 
discs.


Perhaps we should think about ordering larger discs: For 220mm size 
they charge only 2 cent more, but printing size increases from 100mm 
to 140mm.


Please also keep in mind that every additional color adds to the final 
price.

How would you recommend combining the new logo with two items of text?

a. 'www.openoffice.org'
b. some variation of 10th anniversary 2000 - 2010


I would think of the logo in the middle, "Tenth anniversary: 2000 -
2010" bent at the top and "http://www.openoffice.org"; bent at the base
of the disk.


I did a draft using the disc (changed color) from Rosana's link:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/File:Flying_disc_proposal.png


At the right and left we could add the gull orb, if this fits visually.
I think this kind of disc looks good, but in my opinion it doesn't work 
as well as the gull symbol designs for the idea of making an 
"anniversary photo album". If you read the proposal on the wiki it is 
about passing it through and making photos of it, all over the world. 
The symbol hast the advantage, that you can recognize it from far away, 
it uses the round form and is more catchy. I think if we want to include 
the logo and a sentence talking about the 10 years other giveaways could 
do the job. The disc aren't the real marketing campaign, the real 
marketing campaign are the photos made with them. That's why I think 
that having a very clear symbol that fits perfectly in the form is the 
best alternative.

I can't follow the link at the wiki page:
.../search?CreateDocument seems to be the container for a frame you 
wanted to share with us.


At the website there are different discs. Which one do you think of?


500 discs delivered to Budapest cost 428,40 EUR


Do we need delivery to Budapest? As the website is located in Germany, 
perhaps someone could take them with him/her?


Do you have any clue about the size of the package? I know of someone 
driving with the car - should we ask him?
I talked with Florian, I think taking a car is complicated and I assume 
500 discs are a lot, Florian told me about his experiences with dvds... 
That's why I asked for the delivery.




As there isn't a lot of time (to have the discs delivered to Budapest on
the 30th of August we'd have to order them the 27th of July) it would be
good to make a decision as soon as possible.


I'd prefer being involved in design decisions, because this would have 
impact on our branding - especially if images of the flying discs 
should be shared around the world.

As you see you are being involved


But if time is too short, I can't help here.

Just a remark:

If I read the wiki page right, you want to take blue discs with white 
logo and gull orb (plain or 3D?), so the color will not even be near 
to our official blue tone.


On the other hand this would mean a second color (black and blue), so 
costs will be much more (if I read the website right, this would mean 
about 30 Cent per disc).


I don't know which way to prefer - but I'd rather stay with less discs 
in our official colors than with more discs that doesn't help our 
branding efforts (even if the fact of using other background colors 
than the official ones is not yet explicitly mentioned in the branding 
guidelines draft).
I think it's late for having the exact matching colors. I think that 
even if the blue is not perfect the idea behind the disc is stronger and 
it's a cool marketing giveaway. In my opinion is better this blue than 
not having the discs. If someone can get another quotation for the right 
color that would be delivered on time I will also prefer that.


Also 500 pieces aren't a lot. With more time if the idea is good we can 
produce the ones with the perfect branding.




If anyone can get a better offer that can still be delivered on time,
that would be great.


It's in fact a matter of pricing and time, but perhaps there is a shop 
in Hungary able to do such disks? Is anyone of the OOoCon team around 
here?
If someone can help us that'd be great, but I think we can't wait too 
long for taking the decision.

Rosana

Hi Nicola,

Thanks a lot for this video, I think you are doing a good job!
What do you think about having a voice over? Some time ago I worked with 
Carl from creativetrax.com for an OpenOffice.org video: 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4ARctdsAtM


I know it's a different style, but he did a great job too.

Some minor feedback: when you're writing in Writer the font is only 12 
points or so, which makes it hard to be red on the video, I think if you 
work with a bigger font it will be easier to read the message.

Re: [marketing] What to do for 10 years OpenOffice.org?

2010-07-06 Thread Rosana Ardila Biela





Hi, 

I'd like to propose a way of celebrating the 10 years of OOo. We print
frisbees with the OOo symbol and distribute them at the OOoCon. The
frisbees are our "Freedom Frisbees" (Thanks Florian for the name :) )
and would be handed (or thrown) from one community member to another,
in the same spirit of the free and open source software. 

To make this visible to everyone, community members all around the
world could do photos of the symbol/frisbee and show where OOo is used
and how far it has come in the 10 years. 
In October for the celebration of the 10 years we would have a "family
photo album" of OOo with photos from all over the world. If someone has
also an interesting story to tell about OOo (like how it helps its
region), that would be also part of the photo album.

The idea is to make the frisbees go from one community member to
another (or user) and never to stay too long on the same hands and to
have as many photos as possible. Those photos can also be a great help
for marketing materials.

I've checked some offers in the internet and frisbees are available
starting at 0.50€ p.

Let me know your thoughts on this, I posted it to the wiki also.

Rosana

Hi Jean Baptiste,

As you can see [1] your issue 110826 is being addressed and the icon on 
the start center will be changed.
The idea behind two identical icons was to reduce the amount of 
different elements in the start center. As both icons have the function 
of opening a folder they looked the same, but as you can see Stella took 
ownership of the issue and this will be changed. Other improvements in 
the start center can follow in future versions. I invite you and others 
with ideas how to reduce deficiencies to take part of the branding 
initiative where the points you raised can be addressed. We are just 
starting, but we also aim to improve the collaboration with the UX team 
to provide better usability.

Community, the look and the usability of the new StartCenter, and the
method to do the changes.

There is two kinds of problem :

- *theses changes break our processes, mainly our QA process*. Indeed
OOo 3.2.1 is a bugfix and these changes do not fix any bug, so they have
nothing to do in a bugfix. Confidence in the quality assurance rests, to
a large extent, on the absolute respect of the procedures. The break of
our processes is then a major fail and a very bad message sent to the
Community.

- *the new StartCenter is mainly unusable* due to the too small
difference between ODF icons, the four small icons seem which seem
grayed, "open file" and "template" actions which have the same icon (a
closed folder !). Most of those to whom I showed the new StartCenter
have said that it is a regression. If we consider the StarCenter as the
gateway to OpenOffice.org, so it does not encourage the user to enter.

I do not like to write that but, in its current state, I do not know how
I could validate a francophone version of OOo 3.2.1. :-(

If we do not want to discourage the Community it is essential that the
main role of the Community shouldn't be only to accept and promote the
decisions taken by Hambourg. Remember, without its Community,
OpenOffice.org would not have a market share of ~20% in Europe.
So we should work *together* to do a better version 3.2.1.

Best regards.

Re: [marketing] a small logo rework

Hi Kiuma,

It's great to see you have interest in working in the branding project! 
As some others wrote here, the right list for this is 
brand...@marketing.openoffice.org
Right now we are working on the basic branding guidelines and once they 
are defined there will be a lot to paint :-)  So you are very welcome to 
contribute to the branding project.
The logo shouldn't be modify, but there are so many places where we need 
your creative help. So take a look at the branding wiki 
and join us!

Rosana

Then I also have to be more careful about the anti-aliasing effect on

This is only a prototype, I'll do it better the day after tomorrow (tomorrow

I like it.  It gives it a little more flare than the current logo.  The
only
downside I noticed, and maybe it is just me, but the wave going through the
logo causes the letters in "Open" to appear slightly crooked (especially
the
n).  Again, it might just be me.  Maybe the wave could be altered slightly
to work around this effect of the mind?  Still, it is very minor.  I would
prefer it over the current logo.

Hi Bernhard,

In a company the designer get the goals they should follow from the 
managers or their marketing department. In a project like OOo there is 
no management - it is the community.


Therefore I want to ask the community about their goals.

You're right, but the OOo community has its own organization, the 
marketing project with its Lead, Florian.  This is the organization that 
should agree on the goals, write them down and develop strategies for 
achieving them. And that's the job the Strategic Marketing Plan 
 has 
to do. As it has to be updated this year, there's a good chance to bring 
your ideas in such a plan. In my opinion a strategic plan has lots of 
advantages, because it gives you the direction for a long period of time 
and the method of developing it is more analytical. And I also agree 
with Bernd on the fact that it is hard to get clear goals and results 
from a informal poll (sorry that's the social scientist in me ;) ).

2010-02-26 Thread Rosana Ardila Biela


Hi Bernhard,

I think that your idea of polling the community for knowing how we think 
and feel about OOo is very useful. But I also agree with Stefan on the 
fact that that the impression of the community is different from the 
general impresion. So I would also like to focus on the way the whole 
world and our users look at OOo.  How do we want people to perceive us 
in the world? How do we want to look like, so that it is compelling for 
every user in the world?
It is important to be visually identified with the community, but from 
my point of view the first priority is to create a visual style that is 
appealing for users all over the world.

Rosana

Am 25.02.2010 01:08, schrieb Bernhard Dippold:


Therefore I'd like to run a survey, inviting all community members to
vote for the most important properties of OpenOffice.org.


Polling the community probably will bring up completely different
results than polling general users or even the public. Do you have this
in mind?


Yes - I'm not looking for the general public thoughts on OOo (even 
this might be a very interesting survey), but on the community's 
self-perception as a basis for our visual design.


With such a design based on the results of that poll I can cover two 
aspects:
- Improve identification of the community members with the main 
project (not only with the sub-project they work in)
- Steer public perception towards the visual impression of OOo we want 
them to get. I don't want to reflect their present perception of our 
product and project.




Mission statement:
Our goal is to reveal positive associations with OpenOffice.org's brand
by improving the identification of community members with OpenOffice.org
and the recognition of the product in public.



That what I wrote down as the basis of the branding initiative's work. 
But as nobody really knows about the feelings of our project members 
towards the community, creating a consistent visual design is not easy.


I quess, community and public see OpenOffice.org with very different 
eyes.


I'm quite sure they do. But on the other hand I don't think that there 
are so much differences between the community point of view and the 
way we *want* people to look at our project in future.

I guess this is a pretty fair dail, as the package has a worth of 149,95 €

If no one has real objections, I'll take their offer, which will save us

The room number is 53 71 38 and the PIN is 136.

As an additional reminder, in order to make later conferences happen,

irc://irc.freenode.net/cinelerra

  

We could test some software, write down some best practices and introduction
for beginners. What do you say?



ShowMeDo has some resources on how to make screencasting in Linux,
OSX, and even Windows.

This might be something we could support with the EU project I announced
earlier. Romanian, Bulgarian, Czech and Spanish would be the targets.
I'd have to check that the work supports the ITQ assessment criteria but
I should think it will.

[marketing] OOo 3.1 - New features screencast online

Hi All,

You can see the New features in OOo 3.1 screencast now on youtube and on 
the OOo website:

http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/features/3.1/

I hope you can use this material for marketing activities. If anyone 
wishes to localize the screencast, just write me an e-mail, we'll find a 
way to work it out.


Thanks a lot to Carl, our voice artist. He did a great job!

[marketing] screencast wording draft

2009-05-18 Thread Rosana Ardila Biela


Hi Everybody,

I chose some new features for the screencast. I think it's better to 
have a short screencast that highlights few features, rather than a long 
one with too much information.
I kept the wording very close to the text at the "what's new" site. 
Please give me your feedback regarding the wording or the selection of 
the features. I would like to do the screencast as soon as possible and 
start the screen recordings on Wednesday, so please send me your 
feedback until the 20th.


Thanks,
Rosana

*Screencast OpenOffice.org 3.1*

Hello, this is an introduction to some of the new features of version 
3.1 of OpenOffice.org.


Let's start with the improved screen appearance. OpenOffice.org now uses 
a technique called anti-aliasing to improve the way it draws on screen 
(lines, circles, etc). You will notice an immediate improvement in the 
clarity of graphics - particularly charts - wherever they appear 
throughout OpenOffice.org.


Dragging graphics is easier, as OpenOffice.org now shows you a 'shadow' 
of the object, rather than just a dotted outline, when you drag an 
object in a drawing across the screen. This makes it much easier to 
place images accurately in complicated drawings.


Now it's possible for a series of editors to carry out a structured 
conversation through Comments, just by right-clicking on a Comment and 
selecting 'Reply'. As a further enhancement, the Search facility now 
also searches the text of Comments.


The zoom slider feature was a popular addition to Writer in 
OpenOffice.org 3.0. With 3.1, it's available in Calc and Impress too, 
giving quick and accurate control over the level of zoom of the display 
on the screen.


Let's now take a look at the new features in Calc:
Renaming sheets is now very simple. You just have to double-click on a 
tab in a Calc sheet and the rename dialog box pops up.
And Calc now gives you formula hot hints: it keeps the syntax of a 
formula displayed right next to the cell as you type as a handy 
aide-memoire for how to use a formula.


And there are also new chart features:
OpenOffice.org charts now offer a range of options for the placement of 
axes. This feature has been in great demand, particularly from 
educational users.
You may now also choose how OpenOffice.org charts handle missing data 
points - leave a gap, assume zero, or continue the line through the 
missing value.


Impress now has convenient toolbar buttons to increase or decrease the 
font size of text quickly and easily. Make your text fit perfectly in 
seconds!


And now numerous new languages like Arabic are supported by OpenOffice.org.

There are a lot more new features. Download OpenOffice.org 3.1 and 
discover them for yourself.

Re: [marketing] Reminder: Videos: get involved!

2009-04-26 Thread Rosana Ardila Biela


Hi Alexandro,

Good points! We still have time, so I think we can implement your ideas.
I'll start working on the "how-to" manual, linking to programs, etc.

cheers,
Rosana



This initiatives deserve more than one random email on the marketing
mailing list Would be great if you can send a weekly update of the
project, and look for more people to contribute on the different
communities.

I would even go as far as making a requirement on video and send the
clip to everyone. Also include a video on how to better record the
video since not all users have a clue.

I would link to software that records straight from webcam (most uses
for streaming but dont have a clue on recording an actual video file).
on windows and linux.

Anyway, if someone can't make a video in the next 2 weeks I will just

The idea is very simple: webcams are very popular, almost every new 
laptop has one. So you might have one, and if not, you probably know 
someone who has one, and can lend it to you. You could make a 
"living" postcard: get in front of the camera and tell why OOo is 
special and how to get involved.


Important is the sound quality, so that everyone can understand the 
voice. The lightning is also important, so we can see the person in 
front of the camera. If you can do the takes outdoors, it would be 
great, as it gives the impression of "freedom". And well, if there 
is a very beautiful place in your country and you can show it on 
your video that would be great.


I will pick some of the videos and integrate them with the content I 
already have, but we can find a place to put all the videos. I 
created an e-mail account where you can send me the videos:
ooo.postc...@googlemail.com <mailto:ooo.postc...@googlemail.com> The

Hello All,

I'm now working on two videos for OOo and would like to ask you to 
get involved. I did a few interviews with OOo members at the Cebit 
exposition in Hannover, Germany. So I already have some material, but 
I would like to have people from all around the world in the videos. 
As I can't travel around the world to interview you all, I would like 
to ask you to help me.


The idea is very simple: webcams are very popular, almost every new 
laptop has one. So you might have one, and if not, you probably know 
someone who has one, and can lend it to you. You could make a 
"living" postcard: get in front of the camera and tell why OOo is 
special and how to get involved.


Important is the sound quality, so that everyone can understand the 
voice. The lightning is also important, so we can see the person in 
front of the camera. If you can do the takes outdoors, it would be 
great, as it gives the impression of "freedom". And well, if there is 
a very beautiful place in your country and you can show it on your 
video that would be great.


I will pick some of the videos and integrate them with the content I 
already have, but we can find a place to put all the videos. I 
created an e-mail account where you can send me the videos:
ooo.postc...@googlemail.com <mailto:ooo.postc...@googlemail.com> The 
files size can be up to 20MB, and the shorter the videos, the better.


I hope I can see you soon!

Re: [marketing] video contest idea / chat meeting?

2009-02-04 Thread Rosana Ardila Biela


Hi all,

Sorry for getting back to you so late. I think there is interest in the 
contest and I agree with Alexandro that it could be a marketing strategy 
itself.
I think we could work generally on a video/multimedia strategy for OOo, 
not only with the contest. In the next months I will be also working on 
videos for OOo, when I have more details I'll ask you for your feedback.


I would like to propose a  "OOo video strategy chat". It would be great 
to have a live chat,  so we can brainstorm and get working. Is anyone 
interested in joining me?
I'm kind of a newbie, so maybe you can tell me which IRC channel fits 
best for this and what time is the best for all.  I would suggest early 
next week as a date for the chat.


cheers,
Rosana

I agree that paying profesional developers might be expensive for a
one time thing. But a DIY approach might be good enough since the
investment could paid off for more than 1 porpouse. Not just
developers, but product, events etc. Then the investment create better
much greater return.

Re: [marketing] video contest idea

2009-01-12 Thread Rosana Ardila Biela


Hi all,

I agree with Anvay on the fact that having a repository of OOo videos 
would be helpful for a lot of people. If they are licensed under a 
Creative Commons license they can be re-used for different marketing 
campaigns and other purposes.
I also agree with Sagar as he points out that professionals film makers 
do a very good job and that it would be good to try to get them to 
videos for OOo. But we will need a budget to pay for their professional 
work and probably we could only afford very few videos.
Mozilla did a video contest for Firefox back in 2006. They wanted short 
videos (30 sec) promoting Firefox and they tried to get everybody to 
participate (users, amateur video makers, film students and professional 
film makers) and had ¨big¨ prizes as incentive.
You can take a look at http://www.firefoxflicks.com/ and see the winning 
videos, the target and rules of the contest and the prizes. Firefox also 
collaborated with different film festivals and got sponsors for the 
prizes. Maybe we could think about this.
I personally think that it isn't necessary to have paid professional 
film makers, as the production costs for producing video have 
dramatically gone down in the past years. The alternative of having a 
professional production still remains. But I think that it would be 
better to have less professional videos coming from more different 
cultures, than having a standard video for all cultures. We can increase 
the  quality of the videos if we target film students and young artists, 
who have time and want to experiment, and might be motivated by the 
prize and the honour. If they're already using OOo or if they start 
using it because of the contest doesn't matter (IMHO) as long as their 
videos are good. We could also get the film makers in touch with people 
with successful OOo stories.


Let me know your thoughts.
cheers,
Rosana

Interesting points from Anvay. My two cents on this

   - We need videos. But do we need videos from individual users telling us
   how OO changed their lives? This where I differ from the suggestion of
   soliciting videos from users. I think the videos that we need should focus
   on the use of OO by communities and enterprises in their day-to-day work. I
   think a video where a CTO or a small business owner talks about how they
   have replaced Office with OO, how that has impacted their work and
   productivity, and how other people can get on board would be more useful.
   For communities, it could be video documentaries on the use of OO in
   schools, in government offices and interacting with the users with the focus
   being as above - replacement of Office, impact on work & productivity, and
   how more people can use it
   - How do we give incentives for people to do this? Again, do we want
   users to do this for us? How many people can actually bring out a
   well-produced, good looking video. My experience seeing home videos is that
   there is a reason people are certified cinematographers and editors :).
   Let's think of this differently. Let us ask our users to give us their
   stories or stories that they know about - wrt usage in business and
   communities. Let us shortlist the best and the most moving stories. Let us
   then collect sponsor to get "professionals" to actually go out and shoot
   these videos. Are we in marketing or not? Then we do need spit and polish on
   our materials. It might be corporate-ish but thats whats needed to gain
   credibility. Let us contrast the following
  - User video posted by Anvay
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dury0VEJT3U
  - Corporate video on rural internet services
  
http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=aZ5QG65FKzk
  - Which one would you prefer seeing again, and which message would
  stick in your mind?

Hope this fuels the discussion further

Thanks,
Sagar

Hi,
First let me introduce myself. I am an Indian software engineer, working in
Singapore. I have been scouting around OOo mailing list's for some time
looking for way's to contribute, and would like to share some thoughts on
this video contest and more generally on promoting OOo via video's.

1. Do we need to promote OOo via medium like video's?

Simple answer: Yes.

As far as my perspective goes, the true reach of OOo right now is amongst
the relatively "tech savvy" crowd. If  we truly want OOo to reach wider
audience's we need to more and more mediums to reach them. Blog's,
pamphlets, banners etc are good - but nothing touches the human psyche more
than audio-visual, especially the type of crowd we are targeting.

Imagine if we had a repository of video's (mind you not tutorial's)
promoting OOo. Not only listing out the good things but comparing it to
other such licensed products out there (read MS Office). It would be so
easy
for a volunteer to pick up one or two of such

[marketing] video contest idea

2009-01-06 Thread Rosana Ardila Biela


Happy new Year to everybody!
Thank you for your answers, I will get into more detail now so we can 
discuss the video contest idea.
I think the first thing to do is to find out how important such a 
contest could be for OOo. Is there a real need for marketing material, 
like promotional videos? Could it be important to promote the contest 
itself among students and artists who might not know well OOo? Is there 
any topic that deserves more attention and promotion on OOo?
I think that making clear if and how important such a contest could be, 
can help deciding what kind of efforts we should make. So let me know 
what you think.

Regards,
Rosana

That would be an awesome idea, I have been very interested in new

be nice to have more "promotional" videos. We also had a OOo channel
which needs much help visibility wise.

If my current situation improve we will be producing original content for OOo.

  

members could create great material, from their different cultural
