[videoblogging] Annimations or graphics needed for video
Hi, I'm working on a pilot radio/vlog series and might need some animation or graphics done. Anyone interested? It would be a few seconds of each of these: - Chinese Medicine theory - Collect and organize - Body in balance Ying/Yang - 5 person in same condition, holding hands, in a circle, weaker person being pulled If you are interested, please email me... I'd need some examples today... Thanks, --Steve -- Steve Garfield http://SteveGarfield.com

So we're having 2 meetups? One tonight, and one on Friday? Fine, I'll go to both! Adam Quirk wrote: So, raise your hand if you can meet up December 15 in NYC.

RE: [videoblogging] Blip Updates...Questions?
Aha! There's no search buttons on user show pages.
So here's the question:
Should a search on a show page search the user or all of blip?

Hey all you blip folk.
I really dig the new changes to the site. It's kind of fun
figuring out where things are.
All in all, I think it is a nice set up easy to find most things.
It's been fun.
Question, though...
Where is the search button when I am on a person's show page?
I can't find it.

Being
able to link to video with simple tags is nice, but its
even nicer
when you just click a button to insert a video.
For example I was looking at this really nice clean and

FCKeditor is available for it as an add-on WYSIWYG editor, and
this

youtube and
google posts. I quite like the way it instantly shows you a

Im thinking
there has to be an even easier way to link to youtube etc videos

cutpasting the videoID? Maybe it wont be so easy,
maybe I have a

Holy Cow!
Very sweet new mambot, or plugin for Joomla.
You can embed video with a simple expression such as:
{movremote}
http://url.com/filename.mov{/movremote}, making it easy for
multiple
user blogs.
Compatible with YouTube (minus branding, yay!).
This is exactly what we were talking about earlier in that

It would be nice if you could do both, IMO, for instance you may know
who did a paticlar vlog and just want to search that person site or
you may not know but know the name of the vlog, etc

[videoblogging] I was Attacked by NYPD ~ Wanna Watch?
The War on Journalism http://fluxrostrum.blogspot.com/2006/11/war-on-journalism.html description from I-Witness Video http://iwitnessvideo.info On October 30, 2006 at a demonstration protesting the murder of journalist Brad Will in Mexico, members of the NYPD assaulted an independent videographer and stole his videocamera. That's right, stole. The filmmaker, FluxRostrum, was not arrested. He did not receive a receipt for seized property. He was not even directly asked for his camera. Instead, without any warning, he was jumped by two police officers, one of whom is an NYPD captain, and knocked down onto the asphalt of 39th Street. One police officer was succcesful in wrenching the camera out of Flux's hands. As Flux crawled around on the ground looking for the eyeglasses which had been knocked off his face during the attack, the cop with the camera quickly conferred with another officer. Then he ran off to hide the camera. When Flux attempted to get his camera back after the demonstration, he was threatened with arrest by a Lieutenant at the 17th Precinct. His lawyer was told that camera was found abandoned at the scene and that it had been turned over to the Manhattan District Attorney's office to be used as evidence against people arrested at the Mexican Consulate demonstration that day. Someone at the 17th Precinct told the D.A. that the camera was found abandoned on the sidewalk. Now the D.A. is insisting on keeping a copy of the stolen videotape to use as evidence. Is this the new normal? Is it legal just because the police say so? If police do not have their own videocameras at events will they simply bonk one of us over the head and steal our gear and videotapes? What if they decide that they do not like what the videotape shows? Will they then destroy it as has happened to so many cameras seized by the NYPD over the past couple of years? This story is a little hard to believe, isn't it? Fortunately, you do not have to take my word for it. Not to be denied his voice, Flux made a videotape about his experience at the hands of NYPD.

That is quite bad and stupid. The illegal police camera seizure would obviously caught on other cameras. And action can be taken against those police officers from that evidence. -- Enric --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, ~ FluxRostrum [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The War on Journalism http://fluxrostrum.blogspot.com/2006/11/war-on-journalism.html description from I-Witness Video http://iwitnessvideo.info On October 30, 2006 at a demonstration protesting the murder of journalist Brad Will in Mexico, members of the NYPD assaulted an independent videographer and stole his videocamera. That's right, stole. The filmmaker, FluxRostrum, was not arrested. He did not receive a receipt for seized property. He was not even directly asked for his camera. Instead, without any warning, he was jumped by two police officers, one of whom is an NYPD captain, and knocked down onto the asphalt of 39th Street. One police officer was succcesful in wrenching the camera out of Flux's hands. As Flux crawled around on the ground looking for the eyeglasses which had been knocked off his face during the attack, the cop with the camera quickly conferred with another officer. Then he ran off to hide the camera. When Flux attempted to get his camera back after the demonstration, he was threatened with arrest by a Lieutenant at the 17th Precinct. His lawyer was told that camera was found abandoned at the scene and that it had been turned over to the Manhattan District Attorney's office to be used as evidence against people arrested at the Mexican Consulate demonstration that day. Someone at the 17th Precinct told the D.A. that the camera was found abandoned on the sidewalk. Now the D.A. is insisting on keeping a copy of the stolen videotape to use as evidence. Is this the new normal? Is it legal just because the police say so? If police do not have their own videocameras at events will they simply bonk one of us over the head and steal our gear and videotapes? What if they decide that they do not like what the videotape shows? Will they then destroy it as has happened to so many cameras seized by the NYPD over the past couple of years?

I'm glad you are ok. I am glad that you are not locked up or have been artificially ventilated. I keep saying this - y'all need to be extremely discreet when filming PD. I don't care what the law says; I don't care what our rights are. Rights are no good if you are dead. Yes, get the shot but do not put yourself in harm's way. I could see that you were in compliance with the order but to PD it does not matter. They couldn't even see the other cameras, cell phones and other recording devices. They focused on you. Some members of the PD have moved to a position of self-protection and defense. They have the color of authority to steal and/or kill. Assume that they will be hostile, assume that they will be unhappy with documentation. I don't know but folks please start thinking about this if you are going to cover these kinds of events. Backpacks with lens holes. Lower quality cameras with external tube like lens. Think of multiple exit routes as you slip in and out of view. Take care and be as safe as you can.

[videoblogging] Helping Vlogs to Flog (Advertising payments to vloggers)
This just in off Business 2.0 site An article on had this: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/business2/business2_archive/2006/09/01/8384349/index.htm?postversion=2006102617 20 Smart Companies to Start Now Howard Schultz, Steve Case, Vinod Khosla, and other major investors are sharing their best startup ideas. And they're willing to give a collective $100 million to the entrepreneurs who can make them happen. --- Helping Vlogs to Flog The Investor: Steve Krausz, general partner, U.S. Venture Partners What he's backed: PodTech Network, Verity, Vontu What he wants now: A matchmaking site that brings new forms of advertising to one of the Web's fastest-growing new phenomena, the video blog. Popular vlog Rocketboom got the concept off the ground earlier this year by auctioning off 15-second house-produced ads at the end of its Web newscasts; then-host Amanda Congdon also wore T-shirts from startups eager for exposure. Krausz wants a startup that can offer a clearinghouse of placement opportunities from major advertisers like Apple (Charts) and Nike (Charts) - from 10-second trailers to insertion of products in the creative. Videos would be subject to screening and approval by the advertiser, but Krausz thinks that's a service that could eventually be outsourced. Payment to vloggers could be negotiated any number of ways: They could receive fees based on impressions, click-throughs, or both. The startup, of course, would take a healthy cut. It would allow this explosion of user-generated content to get an additional revenue stream, Krausz says. Nothing like this exists yet. What he'll invest: $2 million for a proof-of-concept site and sign-on from a handful of top advertisers Send your pitch to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- S.H.

Some members of the PD have moved to a position of self-protection and defense. Assume that they will be hostile, assume that they will be unhappy with documentation. I can vouch for this (unfortunately). I suppose the most effective methods call the least attention to themselves, as they're the least likely to result in illegally seized footage. Anybody know of a good resource/guide for filming police or protests? [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
