Hey Eric Rice, et all... How do we talk to the podcast community interested in doing video and let them know that a bunch of us have been doing video for a while now and can help if they'd like? Verdi
From a WiredNews article: http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,69462,00.html?tw=rss.TOP But not everyone's so sure. Jawbone Radio host Len Peralta has no plans to start a videocast and is especially dismayed by podcasters who just turn a camera on themselves. "The Mary and Karla Show, for example, is painful to watch," complains Peralta, referring to a show by a pair of Portland, Maine, audio podcasters who, on the video version, sit by their computer or on couches talking. "It's a head scratcher why people would watch that. What is added from the audio show?" Karla Preston, one of the co-hosts, takes the criticism in stride, noting that many listeners were curious to see what the Portland, Maine, podcasters look like. Their videocast, which started the same week Apple released the new iPod, is simply another way of experimenting in a new media, she says. "We wanted to be one of the first to try it out, and it turned out to be a huge success for us," says Preston, who notes her show has been recommended by Curry on PodFinder and regularly resides in iTunes' top 100 rankings. "Our viewers love us and they keep asking for more.... People love the expressions on our faces and they like watching us move on camera." -- Me: http://michaelverdi.com R&D: http://graymattergravy.com Learn to videoblog: http://freevlog.org Learn to videoblog in person: http://node101.org ------------------------ Yahoo!
