Hello, Videobloggers! Do you produce an interview-style videoblog? Would you like to interview people in remote locations that are too far for you to travel to? Would you like to help out your fellow videobloggers by recording the remote ends of interviews for them?
Next week at the Podcast and New Media Expo, The Conversations Network will launch a new free service that I hope will interest you. It's an on-line system to match producers looking for an audio or video "tape sync" with skilled stringers who can handle the remote recording. We designed this service for both professionals and semi-pros, and I think we've succeeded in bridging that gap. On one hand, we want to encourage a very large number of worldwide bloggers and citizen journalists to collaborate with one another. On the other hand, we want to help pros with proven skills and who must be paid for their work. PodCorps.org is for both groups. A number of your fellow videobloggers have helped us develop this application: testing, evaluating, and providing valuable feedback. I'd like to thank them all, but I leave it to them to identify themselves if they wish, and to express their opinions. The official announcement date is next Friday, September 28, but the doors are open now, and I encourage you to stop by, check it out, hopefully register, and send me feedback either here on the list or privately. You'll find specific information here: http://www.conversationsnetwork.org/podcorps/tapesync You can register here: http://www.conversationsnetwork.org/podcorps Thanks again for everyone's help. ...doug -- Doug Kaye, Executive Director The Conversations Network www.conversationsnetwork.org
