Evidently, when at war, enemies and anyone related to the enemy group are separated from humanity. That's wartime strategy. How do we fight the impulse to profile folks? 5. What responsibility do I or you or anyone have to people who are "other?" Is the Christian story of the good samaritan relevant? What if the "other" is objectionable somehow, like homeless and smelly, or loud and obnoxious, or speaking another language? That is the challenge, isn't it? To kiss and break bread with the smelly among us. Why, oh why haven't we put more resources into alternative energy R & D? Oops. Digression. 6. If the person who videoed the whole tazing episode was a journalist, would that have changed the situation? Would being an "objective" journalist be an ethical position in this case? I don't think the situation would have changed were the videographer a journalist, but perhaps the news aftermath might have been different. Of course objectivity among the press corps is ethical. Journalism has become confused with opinion and entertainment of late so perhaps you're missing those elements in this case. It would be refreshing to have objective reportage in the television news. I think the video of the incident was totally objective. Do you not see it that way? 7. Besides showing or viewing the video, what other responses could we make? Blog/vlog it. Get it out there. Google it. Link to sites that report the news and ongoing discussion and what happens. Lots of communities are discussing this taser phenom. Perhaps your own community debates the wisdom of its use. Find out and vlog it. 8. Would technical skills have helped either the student who was tazed or the student who shot the video? This comment is what caught my eye and imagination. Yes! Yes! Shooting with a cell phone is its own motion picture animal. Had the videographer more experience, the footage would have been much better. Everybody would benefit from learning the in's and out's of shooting cell phone video. The student knowing his rights and how to deal effectively with police would have helped him a lot, no doubt. Saw a video on YouTube from a group that follows police officers with video cameras. There was a segment on how to intersect effectively with police when filming. We need a freevlog-type series on how faux journalists and dissenters can best use a police encounter to advantage rather than disadvantage. Will try to find a link to that video again and post it under this thread. 9. Is the mission of helping everyone get access to video communication enough to prevent police attacks? If not, what is enough? I think local police departments have civilian review committees, at least they do in New York. Get involved. Make sure your local police understand that a police state is un-American, etc. Jay, as you know from our interview, I ask these questions all the time. I do not mean to imply anything about you or Gena or others who respond. I just think the questions are useful for people like us who do videoblogging. What do you--anyone--think?

Re: [videoblogging] OurTube
I am joining this discussion late (been busy launching a new online movie download service - more on that later), but here goes... I understand the need for OurTube, but isn't the whole discussion of video blog creators "versus" the big business/exploitation of creative product very relevant to his group? This discussion has been going on for years in the music (the band versus the record labels) and the movie (the talent versus the studios) industries we should take some lessons learned from those industries (both good and bad) and try to achieve something ourselves. Whether your concern is financial compensation, protecting your artistic creation, name recognition, or protecting your privacy - video bloggers are all subject to exploitation by these entities unless there is some way to enable the community to "protect" ourselves no suggestions just yet - still processing those thoughts -Frank http://www.vlogdb.com - Blogging about Video Blogs http://www.gotkidsnetwork.com - Parenting Social Network --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, sull <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > from rox: > > Re: Re: [videoblogging] everyone wants you > > Yes Jay - I've gotten the emails, one referencing the Vloggies.

Re: [videoblogging] external light source
Why not also join the UKvideobloggers group also. As for the lighting I picked up a rechargable light from Jessops for about £30 fits of the hot shoe just nice and gives a nice strong beam. Lats only about 15 minutes though and there is no way of getting another battery unless you buy another light.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: The other videoblogging community
Sull: I think the source of your problem is that you don't understand the meaning of the words "videoblogger," "videoblogging," and "videoblog." Let me clarify these terms for you, based on what I've learned from reading this list: VIDEOBLOGGER: One who belongs to the videoblogging group hosted at Yahoo Groups. VIDEOBLOGGING: That activity engaged in by videobloggers. VIDEOBLOG: The end result of videoblogging. So the fundamental problem is that there's all these people on YouTube who clearly aren't videobloggers (by definition), yet they engage in an activity which looks suspiciously like videoblogging. The debate is over what to do about it, Should we (a) reach out to these people, invite them to join the videoblogging group, and thereby turn them into videobloggers; or (b) make sure people understand that--all appearances to the contrary notwithstanding-- those people aren't videobloggers but something else. "Youtubers" maybe. It is a debate I expect to see continue for quite some time. -Peter On Nov 18, 2006, at 9:07 PM, sull wrote: > I just finished reading this thread with a sorta confused look on > my face > for most of it > And it fitting that the last message here by Charles Hope jives > with how I > feel. > This seems to be a case of over-analyzing a specific perspective of > communities who are using video to socialize, create, inform, > entertain, > insult, inspire etcetera. > > As for the video. yeah its a good job making a montage of some notable > clips and clips that kind of express whats going on at YouTube.

[videoblogging] Re: The other videoblogging community
Id like to see an example of any post by anybody here that has ever suggested that you are only a videoblogger if you are in this yahoo group. Whether you have ever read or posted to this group has absolutely nothing to do with whether the videoblogger label is deemed to fit you or not. And I cant actually recall people on this list suggesting otherwise, at any time. I think its a myth that there are really any people who take this group so seriously as to think it is a factor in the wider scheme of things. Sure internet groups may attact the attention of people who are hypersensitive about the possibility of 'insider groups', 'cliquey cool gangs', 'gaurdians of the guild', forming and claiming somethign as their own, but I really dont think it much of an issue in reality. Now if groups such as this have the ears of those who put on awards shows, design products, blog about things, provide video services on the net, etc etc, then of course the opinions of a few can have undue influence. But in the grand scheme of things I like to think that any distoritons like that are soon corrected, by the sheer force of the numbers of people out there in the wider reality, actually using the stuff (or not), far beyond the bubble here.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: The other videoblogging community
Hello Peter, In case you are not kidding, and for those new to the Yahoo! Videoblogging group, here is my definition of video blogging: Videoblogging = Video on a Blog. A blog entry typically consists of the following: * Title - main title of the post, * Body - main content of the post, * Permalink - the URL of the full, individual article, * Post Date - date and time the post was published Please view my video blog on YouTube: http://youtube.com/profile_video_blog?user=stevegarfield So clearly, the people on YouTube are videobloggers. --Steve On Nov 19, 2006, at 8:52 AM, Peter Leppik wrote: > I think the source of your problem is that you don't understand the > meaning of the words "videoblogger," "videoblogging," and > "videoblog."

Re: [videoblogging] Re: The other videoblogging community
Of course I'm kidding, but a martian reading this group for the first time would think that we're inordinately concerned about what "videoblogging" is, who qualifies as a "videoblogger" (as opposed to, say, "mainstream media posted online"), and what it all means in the grand scheme of things. Me, I just like to play around with my camcorder and Final Cut, and maybe sometimes I wind up with something my mother might be interested in watching. -Peter On Nov 19, 2006, at 8:15 AM, sull wrote: > Peter, > > VIDEOBLOGGER: One who belongs to the videoblogging group hosted at > > Yahoo Groups. > > Tell me you are kidding. > > Trust me, I know what I know to be true ;) > > sull >
[videoblogging] Are there any UK based video producers in this group who would like to join up?
Hi all, Things are definitely looking up at the moment in the UK, what with this and that, so now is your chance to join the ranks of the UKvideobloogers group here on yahoo! http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/ group/UKVideobloggers/ We need more members and I look forward to seeing you swell the ranks. This is not a break away group from the videobloggers worldwide site, merely a chance to discuss the things that are happening over this side of the pond, that most of the members neither care or know about. I know that Americans can be exciting, hell! I have been to America twice this year, but the growth of interest in british home grown video is just about to take off in a very very big way. So it is time for discussion and debate. Come on down and join the fun the British way, with Tea and Cakes and Yorkshire Pudding, yes we have one of those. Paul Knight
[videoblogging] Re: Proposal/VloggerCon Midwest
Bill Streeter and I were talking about the midwest for Vloggercon 2007what about having it in St. Louis at City Museum? That place is nuts. http://www.citymuseum.org/home.asp Could be amazing. We could take a lot of fun video there... and it really isn't fair that all the events are usually on the coasts. My only concern would be for those flying in from overseas... it's probably easier for them to meet up on the coasts... For those in the US though, St. Louis would be a great way to meet in the middle, literally. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "David Meade" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Vloggercon in the midwest would be pretty cool! > > Oh and: > Ahk I'm not listed on meFeedia's Chicago list?!

[videoblogging] Best Video Camera under $1000?
What are some opinions on the best camcorder to buy(use)for good quality Vidlogs, but is under $1000. I have been doing some research for over a month now and keep coming back to the Sony DCR-SR100. I like the idea of recording straight to a hard drive. The reports say the video is great for the money but the touch pad on the small LCD screen is tough to use. I know this is probably the best place to get solid opinions and I'm sorry I haven't posted before but I'm getting really close to buying one and don't want to screw up with that much money. Any help would be greatly appreciated. FisboMan

The size of iPod earphones I think. http://www.jchtv.com/ A Philadelphia based vlog about Craic, Travel and Sailing the Chesapeake Bay! The all-new Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: Proposal
Ohio is easy to say, but a shit place to go to for those of us from outside the US. Anything that requires a domestic flight is not a good choice if you want an international audience. New York, San Francisco are much easier to get to - not to mention much much cheaper!!! Secondly, why use the vloggercon name? It seems a bit silly to me. Just do your own thing and give it your own name. - Andreas --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Paul Knight <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Vloggercon 07 in Ohio, woot!! lets do it!!! it's only 11 hours in the > air for me.
