Re: [videoblogging] Rev Share
Hi Tim: Thanks for this excellent info. Have you considered creating DVDs from your content as well, and selling them on demand through Lulu.com or another service? Amazon.com might have a service as well for independent artists http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_hb5057/ is_199907/ai_n18413473. As long as you have the rights to distribute, that might work out very well for you. You could do a compilation of all the videos, plus deleted scenes, different angles and possibly director and actor commentary. You could also add a DVD only special French Maid episode. You could even do a French Maid episode that describes how an independent filmmaker can make a DVD for sale, from storyboards to DVD art creation, and end with an explanation of how to order the DVD online. Voila.

Re: [videoblogging] Rev Share
Hi again Tim: Here's more info about Amazon's DVD on-demand system for content creators. Seems like you can also distribute through their Unbox video on demand program. http://www.customflix.com/Help/DVD/FAQ.jsp Very interesting opportunities.
