my opinion and I'm behind that.  PodTech is far from old media and in
fact we'll experiment and innovate as much as we can to push the
envelope on ideas and creativity.  I know others feel the same way -
create content, innovate, and push the envelope on new ideas.

[videoblogging] Remote Video Interviews

[Doug Kaye]

We're working on a new project here at The Conversations Network that  
would make it easy for podcasters and videobloggers to conduct remote  
interviews. Okay, so what do I mean by that? Imagine if you could  
conduct a video interview like you might do today, but the person  
you're interviewing is in a remote location. Think of how broadcast  
TV does it: A guest goes to some studio near them and sits in front  
of a green screen. Our goal is to do something similar for  
videobloggers that costs virtually nothing.

Is this something you'd find interesting? Do you even include  
"interviews" in your videoblogs?

It might be best to reply directly to me rather than to the list. I  
don't want to clog up this list with a bunch of "Yes, I'm interested  
in remote video interview" messages. I may actually start a new list/ 
group for this if there's enough interest.

Thanks.

[miglsd27]

 Jeffrey, you couldn´t be more accurate on your comparison, no mather how 
different 
Podtech and Blip are.

 Podtech people, think about this: if anyone on this list had a similar job 
offer (or 
whatever offer…) from both companies, who do you think we would trust more?

 And maybe I´m just dumb, but whats with this "we can´t discuss it 
publicly, but will 
talk about it in private or to someone that whants to report about it"? Whats 
this about, PR 
in China?

 Schlomo, your heart is in the right place.

[videoblogging] Re: The CNN/YouTube debate last night

[mcmpress]

We liked them very much, especially being in them. A very exciting and
surprisingly emotional experience.
That said

Next time, I think you tube viewers should choose the questions, the
candidate "you tube type videos" should be "you tube type videos" - a
candidate and a webcam, that's it.  Speaking from their hearts. Pouring
their hearts out. Their videos were commercials. And not very creative
at that.

I hope there is no going back. That debates have this element of some
kind from here on out. Now that we've got the questions, they certainly
have to work on their answers.

Or, are the questions the answers?  hm.

[videoblogging] A video production lesson: Equipment

[amani_c]

I just posted my latest video, and thought some of you newbies, or you 
vets may be interested in checking it out.  I go over some of the 
video production equipment during a freelance video production shoot.

Send me some feedback if you'd like.  It's called "Morris Brown 
College: The Shoot."  In the final video I'll be in an editing 
session, and will show the final product.  I've been debating whether 
of not folks would find some instructionals helpful.

PEACE!!

[videoblogging] Re: The CNN/YouTube debate last night

[amani_c]

I think the debates have revolitionized participatory politics.  I 
submitted questions, and a post debate commentary that was featured 
extensively on the network.  I blogged about my experience 
yesterday, but overall it's a great time to be involved in new 
media.  

The only thing is the networks don't compensate for the citizen 
journalism submissions.  I was talking to my brother who's a video 
editor at NBC, and we agree that has has to change.

PEACE!!

19 percent of Americans
watch some form of video online. I would think that the number would be

Re: [videoblogging] iphone compatible video

[Adrian Miles]

around the 24/7/07 David King mentioned about [videoblogging] iphone 
compatible video that:
>For example... my last video, Miami
>Ocean<http://davidleeking.com/etc/2007/07/miami-ocean.html>,
>is a 2.2 MB .mov file. It is 320X240, and uses aac and h.264 codecs

final file size is not the issue so much as data rate. you need to 
confirm what your data rate is. iPhone wants max of 1.5 Mbps, it is 
probably fussy about codecs too
