[videoblogging] Re: money
These guys definitely paid for it out of pocket, at least the first half-dozen episodes.

[videoblogging] Online Video Contests
A site that a lot of people on this group will be interested in. - http://www.onlinevideocontests.com/ Simple, constantly updated list of online video contests with brief synopsis of each, how many days until the deadline, and how much $$ they offer. Created by Justin Johnson who's also involved with www.indymogul.com and www.nextnewnetworks.com (but the site isn't affiliated with them - it's Justin's own thing). If you want more background/info, I also recently talked to Justin about the site: http://www.tilzy.tv/news/2008/3/Online-Video-Contests.htm.

[videoblogging] Re: Other Tube Mogul-like Options
Andrew - Have you checked out Vidmetrix? www.vidmetrix.com. I haven't used them (we're currently using Tubemogul to distribute all our interviews), but I've heard some good things in reference to their reporting. However, Tubemogul distributes to more sites. Tim - I've read you arguments before about how some video hosting/sharing sites (including Revver and blip) create RSS feeds for one's content. You're correct - it's really messed up. What happens if a few thousand people are subscribed through your show's Revver feed and then Revver goes out of business? You're out a few thousand subscribers. You're also missing out on ways to monitize those subscribers through an RSS feed that you own and operate. It should either be A) be an opt-in service that these sites provide and not something that's automatically generated and/or B) allow you to insert your own RSS feed as the subscription options. In regards to Tubemogul and other "free" services, it's like with anything else - I think you gotta take it on a case by case basis. I like Tubemogul and I've spoken with Brett a few times and found him to be a great guy, so I feel comfortable using his product.

[videoblogging] Rootclip - Collaborative Storytelling Choose Your Adventure Contest
Just discovered Rootclip - http://rootclip.com. Long explanation short, it's a collaborative storytelling / choose your adventure contest site. The founders of the site create the first clip (aka "rootclip"). Then users submit videos of what happens in the next minute. Viewers vote on which one makes the official cut. Wash, rinse, repeat, until the 6th/Final round, when only winners from previous rounds can submit. You end up with a 6 or so minute story from 5 different voices all created with audience approval. Awesome concept. Check it out. - Josh www.tilzy.tv New York, NY Subscribe: http://feeds.feedburner.com/tilzytvnews

[videoblogging] Re: Meet the elite!
Rupert - You bring up some great points and valid concerns. Let me try to address them: 1) Limit on numbers - We wanted to limit the initial numbers of the IAWTV so we could create a nimble organization that in its inaugural years is capable of getting a lot accomplished. That includes designing an organizational structure that will address a lot of the online video community's concerns. In too many instances we've seen fledgling organizations buckle under the weight of their membership before they were ever able to really get off the ground. I think we have a great core group that's a well-balanced mix of independent content creators, executives, agents, and other creatives who are invested in the industry and its future. In the coming months they'll shape the way the academy grows and the induction process for new members. That being said, I would love to see more independent content creators represented as the IAWTV moves forward and if you have any suggestions on the types of, or specific people you'd like to see in the academy, please send them over. 2) International - Agreed, there admittedly isn't a whole lot of representation outside of the US at this moment, but hopefully that will quickly change (in fact, we're building in support for non-English language selections for next year's Streamy Awards). Again, if Jeffrey or anyone else has recommendations for people who live outside the US who are dedicated to the space, please send those names over. 3) And to Jeffrey's point, ultimately the IAWTV is about providing legitimacy to and growing the web television space. I think an organization like this can have a much bigger voice than the sum of its parts and bring a lot more well-deserved recognition to the online video community as a whole, which I believe is good for everyone. Moving forward, I also hope the IAWTV is able to accomplish a lot of what Jeffrey mentioned: best practices and labor standards and providing guidelines and resources for emerging talent. We all realize the IAWTV is a nascent organization within a burgeoning industry. If you have any suggestions on membership or roles you see that the academy could play, please get in touch. - Josh _ Josh Cohen http://www.tilzy.tv joshuaATtilzyDOTtv --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Jeffrey Taylor wrote: > > Big pet peeve of mine when US orgs call themselves international in word, > but not in deed.
