[videoblogging] No blogging: different visual creations

this one is aimed at Heath:

if you want to go back to coding html, people are still having fun building
visual websites.
probably not as helpful if you post often, but why not?

I remember when ZeFrank started, he was just building is site by hand.
http://www.zefrank.com/
I cant be sure, but it looks like he moved to a CMS...but still looks
different.

One of the options I'm considering is still using my WP backend, and  
having a front page which was big image map with various hotspots  
leading to different videos, categories & pages - either a picture  
that I could either draw & scan & make amendments to, or a collage  
I'd make in Illustrator/Photoshop.

I've made some sites for clients like this - eg http:// 
www.sydneyraewhite.com -  it'd be like a manual version of your drag  
& drop desktop idea, Jay.

im looking forward t what people come up with.
http://www.vbs.tv/ is another example of making the page looks interesting.
(though i hate the autoload video).
the whole background image is part of the actual function of the page.

Hi!


I had a project last year that actually didn't went forward enough to  
go public, but i had started building the concept and tried the geeky  
details of it.

What i ended up doing was:

1) The wordpress was used to create the content with the categories  
and tags and from that i extracted various things:
  1.1) (video) RSS per categorie;
  1.2) archives with the videos on it just as wordpress show content  
by categories;
  1.3) the wordpress view of things is the second way of watch/search  
the content (very blog like always)

2) But i took the various RSS and with those i created a first page  
that is actually the Jeroen FLV player ( 
http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Media_Player 
  ), because that playes is very flexible and is capable of being feed  
with our RSS wordpress... I think you can build a nice TV like that.

In alternative you could just use the play lists from blip and use the  
blip player, but doing it the other way you can integrate the flash  
player in such a way that when you are playing a particular video you  
end up with that wordpress post/article also showing up somewhere in a  
frame, so that you can still have comments and such.

This concept is nothing new and unfortunately i never build it up  
completely to test it further but i hope some day i will have a new  
project to build and test it further and hopefully add more to this  
conversation theme.

thats my 2 cents of Euro. ;)

Rgds,
ZN

Re: [videoblogging] No blogging: different visual creations

2008-12-11 Thread @sull
back when i was playing with the showinabox people, one of my
propositions was to utilize your wordpress rss feed (or other xml
flavor) using the simplepie wordpress plugin (parser) and then build
templates however you want and inject whatever data from the feed that
you want.  this was an alternative to staying within the confines of
the wordpress theming engine.

an example of this is located here:  http://videobloggers.org/vlogwall/
although this is not using the wordpress feed, instead using a mefeedia feed.

the nice thing about it is that you can leave your blog as is and have
an alternative presentation of your content made available to
visitors.

i also like just uisng the flash player + playlisting approach with
some javascript api usage to handle contextual content and comments
etc.

That rocks, Sull.

Really nice presentation.

How'd you do it?

I'm going to take a look at it via firebug, but most of the time I  
haven't a clue what I'm looking at.

What video display app is it based on? What's running it?

I'll take the answer privately if you think that's better.

peace,
