[videoblogging] big announcement
I have wanted to tell people this for a long time, but I wasn't allowed to. So sorry to a bunch of you who should have known this, sorry for having to keep you in the dark. I received an offer I couldn't refuse from Yahoo to buy Mefeedia. I'm sure you all will have lots of questions (sellout?), and I'll talk more about this in time, but I just wanted to get this out there. I am very excited, particularly because my new boss is Lucas Gonze (from Webjay fame). So there we go! Lots of exciting future plans. Just let me assure everyone: in my discussions, I emphasized the importance of a good directory that is focused on *videobloggers*, and Lucas is totally with that.

[videoblogging] Re: Video Interview Techniques: What Are Your Tips And Tricks?
Hey Bre, What are the tricks and tips for a great video interview? When I work with kids interviewing adults for 4-H Network News, I have the interviewee "feed" the young interviewer each questionand shoot the qa asseprate scenes. There are times when a question is shot 6-8 times before it is said correctly. Acouple of weeks ago we walked in cold to interview a spokesperson for the local Red Crossduring a disaster training exercise . We used a single spotlight clipped to a 6 foot light stand, a wireless hand heldmike and a mono pod. The interview was edited together by the 13 year old interviewer in 20 minutes and presented to members of the Red Cross after their meeting. There are some ruff spots in the piece, but you can learn from the mistakes. Our next interviews in this vein will be better. If you do this type of interview, give yourselfediting "room" on the front and back of each scene. Shoot a couple of "listening shots" of yourself and the interviewee60 minutes style. Last weekend,we shot"converationalinterviews" with local artists at an art gallery opening. Weused a tripod, the single6 foot light stand with a 75 watt spotlight, a wireless mike and edited the piece together with "flash transitions". It is was justa 12 minute stream of consciousness that was edited down to around 8 minutes. Ifyou have time to prepare, write up a page of questions andgo overthe listwith the interviewee before the shoot. Shoot B-Roll after the interview. -Jack4-H Network Newshttp://4-hnews.blogspot.com YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group "videoblogging" on the web.

[videoblogging] Re: Video Interview Techniques: What Are Your Tips And Tricks?
Here are some of the basic ideas I try to teach students: Getting subject comfortable in front of camera. You generally don't want to start peppering them with questions the moment you meet them. get them situated in front of the camera and start rolling before you ask questions; just chat and let them get settled. This works well with sit-down interviews; if it's on the fly, of course, this doesn't really apply. Eye perspective. Have them either looking at the camera or just off-camera, but not both in the same interview. Off-camera is more common. Avoid too many people behind the camera. Not usually a problem for vloggers, but if you're working as a team, don't crowd around the interviewer. If there are several people hanging out behind the camera, the interviewee will make eye contact with all of them, which looks terrible on film. Just get them to look either at the interviewer or the camera, whichever you prefer. Have subject repeat question as statement. You want to make sure their answers convey the question. Compare these two responses: Bad response: Q: When did you start the band? A: In 2003. Good response: Q: When did you start the band? A: We started the band back in 2003... By having them incorporate the question into their answer, it'll make for better interview footage. andy carvin [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, pettisb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey Folks, I have an interview gig coming up in two weeks and my normal strategy is to just interview the person with my hand held sd300 and edit it all together and then record an intro and outro before and after the interview.

Hi Vincent, Since I'm in NYC I won't be able to help you with your interview, but I would like to let you know about my site, The New Media Collective, which serves as an information resource and social network for people of color in the blogosphere.

We are trying to figure out what would be the best angle to discuss at Vloggercon for our panel with Rocketboom and so I thought we should probably just ask what you think would be the most interesting or useful direction. At first we were considering a discussion about how the world is coming together over video online, though you know more than anyone about that already. We also thought it might be useful to discuss all kinds of business aspects, including contracts, deals, ways to consider monetizing or not, more ways to promote and distribute, business horror stories, etc. but I'm not sure if the majority of videobloggers would find that useful either. There is also the topic of show and format, but again, I don't know if many people are interested in that. Over the past year, in other cases of panels, its been pretty easy to figure out because the audiences have been almost entirely out of the loop so whatever the thread of the conference was, we would just talk about our take on the matters. So here we are with all like-minded people and wondering what we could do to be the most helpful Any ideas? Yahoo!

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Video Interview Techniques: What Are Your Tips And Tricks?
On Apr 1, 2006, at 8:00 AM, Andy Carvin wrote: Here are some of the basic ideas I try to teach students: Getting subject comfortable in front of camera. You generally don't want to start peppering them with questions the moment you meet them. get them situated in front of the camera and start rolling before you ask questions; just chat and let them get settled. This works well with sit-down interviews; if it's on the fly, of course, this doesn't really apply. Eye perspective. Have them either looking at the camera or just off-camera, but not both in the same interview. Off-camera is more common. Avoid too many people behind the camera. Not usually a problem for vloggers, but if you're working as a team, don't crowd around the interviewer. If there are several people hanging out behind the camera, the interviewee will make eye contact with all of them, which looks terrible on film. Just get them to look either at the interviewer or the camera, whichever you prefer. Have subject repeat question as statement. You want to make sure their answers convey the question. Compare these two responses: Bad response: Q: When did you start the band? A: In 2003. Good response: Q: When did you start the band? A: We started the band back in 2003... By having them incorporate the question into their answer, it'll make for better interview footage. andy carvin [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, pettisb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey Folks, I have an interview gig coming up in two weeks and my normal strategy is to just interview the person with my hand held sd300 and edit it all together and then record an intro and outro before and after the interview.

hi Andrew,i think you should talk about issues that are important to you and to rocketboom. while many who post here regularly might not be interested in those topics, we do have a huge list of members and i'm sure many of them would be interested. also, there will be many at vloggercon who are not members of this group at all that would be interested in those topics. one of the nice things about a conference is that there are a variety of speakers and panels on a variety of topics. people can choose the ones that deal with issues they are interested in and not with those that don't. for myself, i'm interested in all aspects of online video - from the personal to the proffessional. From political documentaries and talk shows to heightening individual communications between distant friends and public journalizing, and from amateur home movies to experimental art pieces.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: big announcement
LOL! You mean videoblogging isn't a subset of pest control? One day I want to see a commercial parody of the now famous cat hearders commercial... Fireant, Vlogdir, Mefeedia, Blip, Ourmedia, place your company name here We make wrangle yer' videos so you don't have to. Yeeehaa! Head em up! Move em out! LOL Also, I'm still sort of hoping at the end of the day I can write a blog post about all the companies Yahoo bought today. Nothing would please me more than to have gigantic list. Hint, Hint. ;) BTW, You do realize this is a common theme. Last year there were a number of them. If my memory serves me correctly among others I think it was Weblogs Inc. or Engadget who started a rumor that they got bought out by yahoo for April fools. I really enjoyed catching up on this thread. We need more yahoos on the web. Not Yahoo!, but the type of crazy yahoo's that make meta and media wranglin' startups. Aggregators, to search engines, to hosting companies, to open source vlogging platforms and plugins. Last time I guestimated there were no less that 30 or 40 video sharing services and yet there's still not enough of the right kind. I've completely lost track, but the important ones are the vlogorific ones, and there's only a small handful of those. Cheers to vlog services and above all to the vloggers who make it all that make it all worth while. -Mike On Apr 1, 2006, at 3:03 PM, Joshua Kinberg wrote: Yep, those ads show up on my Flickr page too.

Re: [videoblogging] Help needed in DC to edit an interview
I have visited and recommended your site to my new media friends in NYC! It is an excellent site! Thanks for the kind words, Vincent. And the referrals. Always glad to have new visitors. We will return the RSS feed that we had earlier and will also provide a weekly mpeg4 downloadable format soon. Glad to know this. Now even more people will have access to your shows. I found someone to help on craigslist! Crisis averted. Good news! What did we ever do before Craigslist? :-) I will add the site to your directory. Can't wait to get you up there. Later, Melanie

I've lost it.I've become all function over form, I'm a designer, I was trained as a proper designer, and yet I've been advising peter on what I call "undesigning" on mefeedia and perhaps worst of all I'm super stoked about the results. :)...and that would explain why I'm using Apple iPhoto 6.0 to aggregat photocasts from all my Flickr ah 23hq friends when it's a beastly piece of crappy software. (Bloatware).It also explains why I'm boycotting iPhoto 6.02 which performs much better. However it doesn't have my all important gods gift to social media the beautiful, ever-living and ever-loved permalink! I credit FireAnt with spoiling me on this all important feature early on and I cry myself to sleep at night that I must use iTunes to aggregate videos onto my iPod. Try as I may it is no substitute. I've even given this deamon a name. I call it meta-basterdization or bastardized media. It's what happens when media become seperated from it's vlog, blog, photocast, or otherwise looses it's metadata. What happens when media looses its permalink.Being as I am an uber media geek and can no loger help it I can oft be heard saying, "Meta-basterdization is contrary to the ways of the lightnet."And all this has nothing to do with Lan so I hope he will forgive me for taking this opportunity to de-rail this great thread with my ranting ways.One day hopefully someone will explain to me why Apple is boycotting podcasters and video bloggers and photobloggers websites and why we're putting up with? If you understand it please let me know. I am baffled... befuddled, a twitching clueles rage... and I can't seem to get dialed into the "Where in the hell are my permalinks apple!" meme. I cannot find the handle on it, for if I could I would compile a hella debate on the importance of permalinks, but alas all the dissenting voices remain scattered like sticks in the wind.Perhaps I'm not trying hard enough. Maybe I should call out "Vloggers! Photocasters! Podcasters! Unite!" ...and start a campaign for podcasters to boycott Apple. I'm not so certain it's a completely absurd idea anymore. iTune has supported podcasting for over a year and still no permalinks. It is no "gift horse" that I know of that behaves so arrogantly in the face of a "consumer revolution" culture. They have expend their good will needlessly, the cost is to high us, and I want my damn permalinks back!Seriously... does anyone miss permalinks? I feel like I'm the only one who's having a hissy fit. :)in case you prefer other formats, here's some video: http://apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2006/03/echo_park_film_.html or some audio: http://apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2006/03/echo_park_film__1.html I'm biased of course, but i think LAN took some great photos and that's more important than the choice of playerI'm sorry Lan, Markus and whomever else I offended. I whole heartedly apologize. I didn't mean anything personal by it, I've obviously cracked and lost my handle on the whole idea of experimentation that's made this all possible. I guess somewhere between the grassroots community and companies like apple caching in on podcasting and vlogging and photocasting something always gets lost in translation. There is some formulation of a standard that has been missed. Perhaps if I issued a license for my RSS feed and got others to do so also stating that my RSS can only be used if proper attribution is given in the form of a permalink we could then file a class action suit against apple to finally get them to acknowlege they are being not figurative, but actual bastards. I appologize for the use of that term, but it is infact the proper term. My media is without parents. :(In my defense I did immediately yesterday "flickr friend" Lan, favorite a bunch of his photos, make several comments and subscribe to his photocast feed in iPhoto (6.0.0!) so I'd never miss another one of his photos again, nor the ability to fav and comment on them.i guess the best answer is "photocast" and then you can pick your viewer of choice then you can watch them in fireant or somethingExactly!I've been bugging Josh K. about true photocast support in Fireant. It would make a GREAT photocast tool, but it doesn't support JPEG enclosures, nor Media RSS (mRSS) yet. Please note, I'm speaking strictly of the mac version. Not sure about the Win version which I haven't had the pleasure of using in a while.I'd like to point out that Nathan over at openvision.tv is developing I/ON to support photocasts, though it's still in beta.http://flickr.com/photos/natty/98024143/I've also created a photocasting group on Flickr, though I have yet to announce it.http://flickr.com/groups/photocasting/It's part of my ongoing obsession in developing discussion around all areas of podcasting... audio,
