[videoblogging] Media School in Bangalore India
Dear friends, As you know one of the biggest problems today is that Indian journalists are not always proud of their own culture and roots and as result tend to have a very negative outlook on India, which in turn influences western correspondents posted in India. It is therefore very important that we train a new generation of Indian journalists. It is for this purpose that we started a new school of journalism in Bangalore called the Sri Sri Center for Media studies. There, we teach the best of journalistic knowledge, both print and electronic, along with classes (which I take myself) on Indian history, the ideal of true journalism and a little bit coaching in pranayama and meditation these two ancient Indian sciences which impart a good and intuitive mind. Unfortunately, there is a lot of competition both within India as well as Bangalore, and schools such as the Asian school of journalism, sponsored by the newspaper the Hindu and the BBC, which form journalists in the old secular/Marxist mould, have much more students and funds than we do. Now what we need is students and this is where you can help. For Indians residing in India, I must emphasize that a journalistic career is very rewarding not only in view that you get to travel a lot, meet interesting people, but also that it is one of the highest seva you can do for India, as journalists today are the most important people in the world - even the politicians are afraid of them ! It is time that all of you Indian parents start thinking about other careers for your children than doctors or software engineers ! For NRI¹s, we see today that foreign correspondents based in India are often very hostile to our ideals. If you could send some of your children, whether they are first, second or third generation South Africans/Americans/British/ Fijians etc, to our school, we would coach them and when they go back to their country of residence, they can enter mainstream newspapers and after acquiring home experience, they could ask to be posted to India, having a natural advantage by being of an Indian origin and hopefully speaking Indian languages. In a few years time, the entire India coverage abroad could see a very important shift. At the moment we only offer a one year post graduation course, but eventually we will have a three years complete graduate course. Next session is end of September and we need 35 students to break even and not lose money as we have done the last three years. The course fees are one hundred thousand rupees and we will make sure your children get an internship (or even a job for those who wish) in mainstream Indian newspapers/TV channels. For further information You can go on the Website: http://www.sscms.org/, email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED], or contact the executive director of SSCMS, Mr radhakrishnan, at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Best François Gautier Correspodendent South Asia Marianne Dean SSCMS SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Explains YAHOO!

I have that so I haven't tested without it - though I would assume Adrian is correct. Yes, this is absolutely true. You need the mpeg-2 component installed in order to handle mpeg-2 files properly. With it, you can import mpeg-2 files into final cut and edit them -- no problem, no need to demux (which is quite something, considering only one out of four frames is actually a real frame!) Without that component, you are in a jam, and I think you can't even really make DVDs properly. That fact drives me nuts at my university when the people who install the software on all the editing stations don't know what they are doing and don't install either the mpeg-2 component or quicktime pro (even though both are paid for in the Final Cut licenses they have). I've designed whole classes worth of curriculum depending on these tools, only to find out the machines aren't equipped... Also in Dec 2003 / Jan 2004 the mpeg-2 component suddenly expired without any notice. I think Apple forgot they'd put a timer on the think, and I was editing late into the night on a huge deadline, cutting DV and raw mpeg-2 footage together with no problem (final cut is really sweet) -- but suddenly all my mpeg-2 files disappeared. I could not figure it out -- until several days later scanning the web, I found people in an uproar. Apple released a new version / a patch within a week or two and we were all back up and running. That's when i really began to understand that there's this little thing that gets installed with DVD Studio Pro that's kind of important if you are using mpeg-2 footage. j YAHOO!

Re: [videoblogging] Media School in Bangalore India
IMO, any organization that sets out to teach journalism from a religio-spiritual bias is potentially dangerous. The world needs truly objective reporting, and/or a variety of viewpoints, but not professional reporting informed by religion. India, especially, does not need any more religion to add into its already explosive mix. What, in the view of this organization, is the ideal of true journalism ? I also dispute M. Gautier's facts as expressed in this letter. I have just returned from three weeks in India during which I read newspapers and magazines and watched some of India's dozens of TV channels, many of them news in various Indian languages. This does not give me a comprehensive view, admittedly, but I wasn't seeing the negative outlook he reports. I saw standard journalistic reporting on problems that really exist (e.g. the disasters in the wake of Mumbai's floods), certainly, but there was also a lot of celebration of India and what it has to be proud of, especially in the light of Independence Day celebrations on August 15th. I also saw plenty of pride and energy on the ground among ordinary people of all social classes. This doesn't look to me like a society being poisoned by negative journalism. -- best regards, Deirdré Straughan www.straughan.com (personal) www.tvblob.com (work) YAHOO!

Re: [videoblogging] dv camera opinon
If you're up for spending $2700 or so, the new Sony HDV HVR-A1U camera may be a good choice. http://www.sundancemediagroup.com/articles/A1U/HVR-A1U.htm and http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/Sony-HCR-HC1-Review.htm Only downside is it is a bottom feeder which means if you are sooting anything longer than one hour per shot, you will lose time removing it from the tripod and the mounting slug and vice versa to change tapes.

Though I supposed I could get a mac version of premier, since that's what I'm used too - assuming they make them. http://campus.umr.edu/it/services/DesktopEnhancement/DEsystems/MacLaptop.html (Also, I'm sure I will get an additional monitor and key board, but I can't find that macs have anything like a docking station that I use with my deel, which is just a way of making it more convenient to hook in a key board and monitor) ... thanks! ...

[videoblogging] My Yahoo Not Updating?
What can I do if Yahoo is not updating my feed? I've tried republishing but nothing seems to work. All other feed readers are getting our lastest post inside the feed, but Yahoo just will not update. It is fairly important to me to get the Yahoo one working since there are a dozen or so subscribers who use it. Any ideas? The VlogMap feed updated almost instantly, but no love on the LBV feed...

Re: [videoblogging] help selecting power book
Hey Richard, I have the previous revision of that model. Mine has a 1.5GHz processor vs. the 1.67 in that. I've also upgraded my RAM to 768MB. Works great for me. I do have some external drives for editing video though you can even get away without one if you are doing short pieces and you don't install the latest Final Cut Pro Studio (FCP, DVD Studio Pro, SoundTrack Pro, Motion) - it installs 40GB of stuff! As far as a docking station - I haven't seen one in a while but you don't really need one. You can just plug in an external monitor and turn on your bluetooth keyboard and mouse and you're set. S They don't make Premiere for Mac anymore. I don't know about the latest PC versions of Premiere but when FCP 1 came out, lots of people switched from Premiere 5.1 to FCP 1 and loved it (guess that's why they don't make it anymore).

[videoblogging] Re: apple store presentations
It's good to have a bunch of methods of spreading the word. Personally, I think a van tour could be very effective (among other methods) in that it will probably garner media buzz. If people want to get it organized, more power to them. And if it's not all they hope for, well, they'll learn something. The van thing ain't for everybody...For example, I have local commitments, at least through January. I'm gonna do more local stuff---teaching kids in my town how to vlog (and getting paid for it, which makes it sustainable for me), speaking at local Apple Stores, universities, and doing stuff on the web to promote vlogging on my own vlog and wearethemedia.com Other people are writing books, getting interviewed by mainstream media, making vlogging tools, and using vlogs to reach people. If there are people who want to make the van happen and are willing to figure out how, then great. Other folks can work on other methods. Do what is exciting and feasible for you. Connect with people who are excited by the same approach and pool efforts. Let a zillion methods bloom. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Stephanie Bryant [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 8/23/05, Michael Verdi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: couple of more thought to add to the conversation Ryanne said it in another thread and I'm planning on saying it in the video conference - Node101 can be done with no money - we've been doing it with no money - using our own equipment and donated spaces. Michael, how is a plane ticket from New York to San Francisco no money? How is your own equipment no money? These things *do* cost money. Perhaps it is money you would have spent anyway, or money you had already budgeted for this semi-pro hobby, or money you had already spent, but it's still money. The hard part is, it takes people's time to be available and teach - that's why I started Freevlog - to help me teach more people than I had time to do in person. Freevlog and a teach-the-teachers approach are the ways to go, I think. We need to use the resources we have to get the word out, and we need to use the web as effectively as possible-- we are, after all, teaching people to put their stuff on the web, right? We need to find local vloggers, give them the tools and resources (the talking points if you will) for teaching others about vlogging. I still maintain that a videoblogging van tour is not an efficient way to spread the word. Locally, we have the guy driving around with Stephen King killed John Lennon painted all over his van-- nobody takes him seriously, either. --Stephanie -- Stephanie Bryant [EMAIL PROTECTED] Vlog: http://mortaine.blogspot.com Audioblog: http://bookramble.blogspot.com YAHOO!
