 What I liked most about the music is the title and the way the tempo
 matched
 the cadence of the promo video. The video clip convey's a great message
 and
 the Design Team did a nice job putting it together.


 I love that you took what was there and worked on it to make it more. I 
 think this is a really interesting idea and that if you take the time to 
 explore a little what values the video already has you could make it so 
 much more. Now that the tool has been mastered, the exploration can 
 commence! Do you think that the video is more about a tune like this: 
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4FaGacwtd4 - that it is how I see it: 
 light, dynamic, fun, friendly, happy! It moves with bounce and energy - 
 Ubuntu is clever enough that it doesn't have to take itself too 
 seriously. The pictograms have some of that: they are constrained within 
 a circle, they are clever but they are approachable. The pictograms you 
 have explored for the Artwork logo reflect that work - is there 
 something you could borrow from that?
 
 What do you think about writing a blog post about how to use OpenShot? 
 Perhaps we could work on a mood board for the video together and then 
 you could include that in the blog post by way of setting out a 
 challenge for people? There could be a visual and a sound mood board. 
 Maybe we could find some Creative Commons tunes here that we could use?

Ivanka,

Thank you for your comments. I really like what PiTiVi has accomplished to
date but improvements lag behind other products such as OpenShot and
Kdenlive. IMO Ubuntu needs a robust video editor targeted to not
professionally trained individuals.

I like the idea of an OpenShot screen cast and I will see if I can squeeze
it in. :-)

A source of sounds I have used in the past is  http://www.freesound.org/
FreeSound Org .

Best regards,

John

Hi Ivanka!

  We shamelessly borrowed the concept (and some of the animations) from the
 Design Team video and made a promo for the Ubuntu Nicaragua LoCo Team. You
 can see the final product here:

  http://ubuntu.org.ni/somos-ubuntu


 Well borrowed - that's what it is there for!


Thank you!


 Why don't you put the video here?
 http://vimeo.com/groups/ubuntufreecultureshowcase or maybe on youtube?


The video was originally made for our screencast project (
http://www.ubuntu.org.ni/pildoras). There's going to be at least five
different videos that people can use to promote Ubuntu at conferences and
fairs. We use blip.tv because it's easier to upload .ogv videos there, but I
uploaded it also to youtube and flickr and will (hopefully, when I have some
time :) upload it to vimeo.

http://www.youtube.com/ubuntunicaragua


 I notice that you have created some new pictograms. Did you know that most
 of the original ones are here:
 http://design.canonical.com/brand/Pictograms/ - let me know if any are
 missing and I will make sure they get put up. Do you think you could make
 the new ones available somewhere?


We have _a lot_ of pictograms that we use for presentations. We have a
mandatory policy in our LoCo to make everything we do (artwork,
presentations, tutorials, videos) available for download under a free
license (we recommend PD0 for works that don't have the Ubuntu brand and
CC-BY or CC-BY-SA for everything else).

The idea with the pictograms was to categorize and upload them to
SpreadUbuntu. I've already uploaded the first ones:

http://spreadubuntu.org/en/node/508

I'll try to upload the rest later this week.



 Thorsten, doctormo, j_baer what was decided about the storage of images for
 this group? I lost track of the flickr debate. Do we have a youtube channel?
 I know we discussed at UDS that we should have one there as well as vimeo -
 shall I just set one up or is there one we already use?



  The song we used is 'Meboo' by Pitx:

  http://ccmixter.org/files/Pitx/12298

   I like the energy!



  What do you think about writing a blog post about how to use OpenShot?

 some Creative Commons tunes here that we could use?
 http://soundcloud.com/groups/ubuntu-free-culture-showcase


  If there's something I personally would love to see is the Design Team
 taking more advantage of all the (excellent) free and open media resources
 out there. There are great musicians who license their work under permissive
 licenses that would be absolutely thrilled to collaborate with Canonical and
 the Ubuntu Project.


 Would love to do more of this. The Soundcloud group was set up for that -
 where else should we look or go to invite people to submit things to that
 group?


It would be a good idea to post something to http://ccmixter.org/forums and
http://www.jamendo.com/en/community.

Cheers,


 Ivanka
