John, There is nothing to talk about. Just pay the bill Lan sent you. This sort of stuff happens routinely at every media house in the world and they have policies in place to deal with it (i.e. pay up). You guys made a mistake, we all do from time to time. Just pay the man what you owe him and move on with your life.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Hey PodTech - What's up with Lan's image?
So everything's all right, then, is it? Lan's been paid, his copyright respected and an apology given for the unintentional oversight? Pity we didn't hear that in Podtech's public announcement there. I guess John was responding just to Jay's comment that The lack of communication is a real problem. For me, the real problem is that Lan - an individual artist - has been kept waiting for payment by a company that apparently has money in the bank, after they apparently used his image without permission. Being a freelancer waiting on an invoice from someone who can easily pay it is bad enough - and typical business practice for many big companies, unfortunately - but waiting on payment after the company has already wronged you, is about as annoying as it gets. Perhaps there's a reason they're not paying - maybe since they first agreed to pay, Podtech has decided they have legal issues with Lan's claim and are working these out with their lawyers. But not to say that here, and just to say There's not a problem - we've been talking since the beginning. is a bit naive, to put it politely. This was their PR opportunity to say, We didn't intend to... blah blah blah... we will pay as soon as... blah blah blah... we are sorry for our... blah blah blah... we share your values and are good guys, yours in internet love, blah. - or, if they're not intending to pay, to say There are legal reasons we haven't paid that I can't go into here, but I'm sorry if it appears blah blah blah I mean, not everybody would immediately believe that they're knights in shining armor - but that's what you say, right? It shows you want to mean well, even if your corporate policy is sometimes in conflict with that. But to me, what he just wrote felt more like, Lan's a liar. We did what we do. I will not discuss it in public. Mind your own business. I just edited out the bad language from that sentence. The sad thing is, I like Podtech - I think they're all right, generally. Maybe they just need to smarten up their awareness of public perception online and pay their bills a bit quicker. That's the great advantage of the internet for both sides. Individuals get to air their grievances if they feel badly treated, and the other side gets to answer back. Contrast with your options in the old days: Steve, the CFO at my last company told me a story about when he was working for Philip Morris (i think) as head of credit control. A small businessman that they owed money for months and months turned up, got through security somehow, walked up to Steve's desk and put his baby on it. There, he said, you fuckin' feed her - 'cause I can't. He said he's never written a cheque so fast in his life :) Rupert http://twittervlog.blogspot.com/ http://www.twitter.com/ruperthowe/ http://feeds.feedburner.com/twittervlog/ On 19 Jun 2007, at 14:23, John Furrier wrote: Jay, Lan portrays a completely different picture in public.

John John, This concerns us because it seems to be part of our larger struggle to have our Creative Commons licenses respected. So far, I've seen two short notes by PodTech people on this, yours, and a line from Scoble that there is more to the story. Neither address the questions, did you use the image without permission and if so, what are you doing about it? It would be really helpful if you could just answer those points. - Verdi

Hey Lan, I hope there is a resolution for you soon. You wrote: After a couple emails back and forth with her I sent her an invoice for licensed use of the photograph. My question is... What was the value of the invoice? The reason I think it's important to know, is that if it's for stupid money, I would have cut ties too. It's one thing to send them an invoice for a couple hundred bucks and yet another to send them one for $38gabillion. I assume it was for a reasonable amount, but it helps make a level headed decision on what the outcome should be.

That's easily fixed by publicizing a TAG for everyone to use on their videos. CNNYOUTUBEDEBATES seems reasonable to me. I uploaded a video that I recorded with Quicktime Pro, but after it was transcoded to Flash, the audio was almost completely dropped. I need to try uploading another.

[videoblogging] Support amazing filmmaker in NYC
Hello! I am really thrilled to invite you to the premiere screenings of The New York 48 Hour Film Project! I can honestly say that this is one of the most exciting and fun events I have ever been a part of and I hope any of you in New York will come out this Wed and Thursday to celebrate these courageous filmmakers. Here's how it went down.. Last Friday, 49 teams of filmmakers gathered together to pull their genres out of a green hat and were given a prop, a character and a line of dialog to incorporate into their films. All films were produced in 48 hours with volunteer cast and crew. The filmmakers who participated this year are talented and incredibly diverse in about any way you can imagine. Trust me, you will be impressed with what they came up with in 48 hours! And hopefully inspired to get involved next year?? For more details: http://www.48hourfilm.com/newyork/ PLEASE JOIN US this week for the Screenings When: Wednesday and Thursday, June 20 and 21 Group A: Wednesday, June 20 - 1st show - 7:00 pm Group B: Wednesday, June 20 - 2nd show - 9:30 pm Group C: Thursday, June 21 - 1st show - 7:00 pm Group D: Thursday, June 21 - 2nd show - 9:30 pm Where Landmark's Sunshine Cinema 143 East Houston Street on the Lower East Side (212) 330-8182 Tickets can be purchased at the door or at www.MoviePhone.com Tickets will sell out, so be sure to get your tix early! PS If you are looking for a good story, bring your video cameras and interview filmmakers, cast, crew - I am sure many will be happy to share tales of their wild sleepless weekend of filmmaking.
[videoblogging] just say hi to everyone and introduce my invitation video
Hello! Everyone, I just joined this group and found it is fantastic coz there are so many vloggers gathering here. Now I am doing my MA dissertation about video blog. My research concerns how video bloggers identify themselves and perceive other users through watching their own videos as well as interacting with other vloggers. Besides, it also cares about how vloggers create and project their own identity through video blog. Thus, if you have the experience of video blogging, you use video to record your life, to show your creativities or to express your own opinions, and you would like to share your experience with me, please send me e-mail ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or leave me some comments. The interview will be conducted within one hour through MSN, SKYPE, or e-mail in the following weeks by the end of July. All contents of the interviews will be used anonymously in my dissertation. Oh! (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=jP-T64a2_Ak) This is an invitation video to my study. If you don¡¦t mind, please spend one minute on watching it. Thank you, guys! Silvia

[videoblogging] What's the most efficient way to gather clips from myriad online video services?
I'm working on a new video-critiquing clip show (a bit like the Daily Reel or the Clip Show, but with huge differences). I'm making two or three episodes a week. In each episode, I need to include six to ten clips from a half-dozen videos. I'm grabbing clips from YouTube, Blip, College Humor, Vimeo, Quicktime embeds, and several other sources. So my needs are: - Less-than-a-day turnaround - Ability to capture any video - Decent framerate/audio I tried iShowU, $20 to buy and the most commonly recommended program for this work, but the program refuses to record at a decent frame rate. (By the way, does anyone know YouTube's default frame rate, or is that variable?) I'll probably buy Snapz Pro, but I wondered if anyone would warn me off lest I waste $70 on another broken program. Surprisingly, former Daily Reel host Felicia Williams tells me her crew used TubeSock. (I've used TubeSock but decided encoding entire videos is too slow and inefficient.)

Snapz Pro is what you want. Definitely worth the $70. I use it all the time. It lets you adjust frame rate, capture size, save in multiple file formats, has hotkey quick launch.

[videoblogging] LA: smogtv - Studio equip avail for you to use!
Hi List, I met Robert Kandle at Pixelodeon, and he has a studio and equipment available for community use in the Los Angeles area. Here are the details; it sounds like a great opportunity. As I understand it, there will be advertising support on the smogtv web site to support this. Please contact Robert directly if you are interested: = SmogTV is an Online video project supported by HD Pictures Post, a media and technology firm located in Santa Monica, Ca. SmogTV loans professional level resources to filmmakers in the LA area to shoot Internet video content of their choosing. SmogTV in partnership with Bandpro ( www.Bandpro.com) supplies filmmakers with a Sony 1080i HDV camera, tape stock, professional sound (Sennheiser microphones, lavaliers, boom mics), and lighting gear, as well as access to a 2 story state-of-the-art post production facility (Final Cut Pro, Avid, DaVinci 2k, audio post). SmogTV does not charge filmmakers for using these resources. All content shot by SmogTV's filmmakers is posted on its main site, SmogTV.com. We believe in ubiquity and encourage our filmmakers to post their content on other sites as well (YouTube, MySpace, their personal web pages, etc.). SmogTV's goal is to create a community of filmmakers who can express themselves freely, meet other like-minded filmmakers, and create content that connects with people around the world. SmogTV also hopes to encourage the creation of similar communities in other cities. We are shooting segments now and are scheduled to launch the site to the public later this month.

[videoblogging] New contender on the Live broadcasting field
I just got accepted into the Mogulus beta and wanted to share with you about a new broadcasting tool. I've been toyng with the whole Live broadcasting field for a little bit. It sets you up with a channel and you can either broadcast live or setup an auto-pilot playlist of the clips you decide. Broadcasting live is like uStream except for the fact you can then add text overlays, a logo, or even those stingers you see on TV! Add to this the fact you can then bring in cued up clips or go straight to an archive or even switch to another camera feed or another user who has their computer's webcam hooked up. Then the auto-pilot can come on and you setup a playlist of clips you'd like to play automatically and soon they will be adding the ability to rerun your live broadcasts. There's more features than I mentioned here so goto http://mogulus.com and see why I'm excited as a vlogger/video producer. Also for people wondering, their business model is that after 8 minutes a 5-15 second ad plays unless you upgrade to their pro version (which at this moment means you have no ads, you just pay for your bandwidth). I apologize if I sound like I'm marketing this, I just am crazy about the idea! This is what I was looking for!

[videoblogging] Re: How much money to videoblog full-time?
MY two cents. I'll try to make this valuable for anyone reading. I am also ready to be flamed. There is a lot that is left out. For example complexity of job requirement. Skills needed (Audio, Lighting, Editing (FCP, or iMovie), Production style (ENG or EFP, Studio). Does this require one or all of the following responsabilities: copywriting, producing, concepts and logistics, on camera talent. Or is this part of a team? Two ways to approach: W-4 employee and a 1099 independent contractor The company you will be working for considers you a employee part time or full time and is taking taxes out of earnings. You are also part of a team (at least one other): Fresh and new. No prior experience. No equipment (using the compnay's gear) 7-9 per hour. Fresh and new but with experience in blogging or related / allied industry, no equipment. 13-17 per hour Experienced (shot at least 200 hours of video either web or broadcast) but no equipment 17.25-23.00 per hour (this is in line with Union wages on low budget productions) Experienced and using your own gear. $23.25 and up to at least 37.50 plus what is called a kit rental for your equipment (The employer insures you and the equipment against loss or damage portal to portal while performing your job in a professional and safe manner) Own your own equipment and working as a independent contractor Minimum $37.50 per hour with a insurance rider for you and the gear ( http://insurance.cch.com/RUPPS/loss-payee.htm ). If you have to get your own insurance then you will have to determine that cost and add it to what you charge. Rule of thumb for a day rate on gear is 1% - 10% of purchase or replacement value. Have $25,000 in equipment and software, you can ask between $250.00 to $2,500.00 per day. Depending on what the equipment is (specialized or off the shelf) will determine what the market will pay. With the above example a mid point of $1,100 per day for equipment is reasonable if you are using a quality gear. If you are contracted for several months a fair equipment rental/lease rate is between 1- 3 days per week. For example you work a five day week, 8 hours a day 40X37.50 for your services and 3 (day week) X $1,100.00 =$3,300 per week for kit rental. I know this looks high. Or it looks like I am. It isn't and neither am I. Travel to and from a location. Decide on a zone size. If you live in the sticks this may not work. If you live in a major city, and you shoot within 60 to 90 mile circle, no travel time. Farther away and you should be compensated for time beyond that zone. This one is tough to just throw out without a explaination. If you want to know more about this hit me off list and I can elaborate.

Re: [videoblogging] Flash video and Intel Macs
Hey David, Flash playback shouldn't be a problem on any Mac, no matter what PC nerds will tell you. Have you tried running it in different browsers? You could try CTRL+Clicking on a flash player and changing some of the things in the Settings and Quality menus. If that doesn't work, try running the uninstall program which you can download here http://tinyurl.com/2j9lt2 (if that link doesn't work, google Adobe Flash Uninstall) Then reinstall it. Shouldn't take too long. Quicker than messing about with trial and error, maybe.

I think that's valuable reading. :) However... Where would this money come from? Who's willing to pay to cover expenses and equipment insurance and travel? What's their benefit? Where's their ROI? Post-Roll Ads? Sponsorship? Product Placement? --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, bordercollieaustralianshepherd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: MY two cents. I'll try to make this valuable for anyone reading. I am also ready to be flamed. There is a lot that is left out. For example complexity of job requirement. Skills needed (Audio, Lighting, Editing (FCP, or iMovie), Production style (ENG or EFP, Studio). Does this require one or all of the following responsabilities: copywriting, producing, concepts and logistics, on camera talent. Or is this part of a team? Two ways to approach: W-4 employee and a 1099 independent contractor The company you will be working for considers you a employee part time or full time and is taking taxes out of earnings. You are also part of a team (at least one other): Fresh and new. No prior experience. No equipment (using the compnay's gear) 7-9 per hour. Fresh and new but with experience in blogging or related / allied industry, no equipment. 13-17 per hour Experienced (shot at least 200 hours of video either web or broadcast) but no equipment 17.25-23.00 per hour (this is in line with Union wages on low budget productions) Experienced and using your own gear. $23.25 and up to at least 37.50 plus what is called a kit rental for your equipment (The employer insures you and the equipment against loss or damage portal to portal while performing your job in a professional and safe manner) Own your own equipment and working as a independent contractor Minimum $37.50 per hour with a insurance rider for you and the gear ( http://insurance.cch.com/RUPPS/loss-payee.htm ). If you have to get your own insurance then you will have to determine that cost and add it to what you charge. Rule of thumb for a day rate on gear is 1% - 10% of purchase or replacement value. Have $25,000 in equipment and software, you can ask between $250.00 to $2,500.00 per day. Depending on what the equipment is (specialized or off the shelf) will determine what the market will pay. With the above example a mid point of $1,100 per day for equipment is reasonable if you are using a quality gear. If you are contracted for several months a fair equipment rental/lease rate is between 1- 3 days per week. For example you work a five day week, 8 hours a day 40X37.50 for your services and 3 (day week) X $1,100.00 =$3,300 per week for kit rental. I know this looks high. Or it looks like I am. It isn't and neither am I. Travel to and from a location. Decide on a zone size. If you live in the sticks this may not work. If you live in a major city, and you shoot within 60 to 90 mile circle, no travel time. Farther away and you should be compensated for time beyond that zone. This one is tough to just throw out without a explaination. If you want to know more about this hit me off list and I can elaborate.

Unbelievable. Check this out. - Forwarded Message From: thomas nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2007 3:07:09 PM Subject: Re: [LAProducer] FW: Forward - Grossly unjust act If these are full time employee's, I can't see how he can legally do this. I think California has specific laws that require all firms with more than 10 full time employees to provide health insurance. The only exception is for financial hardship. I doubt that is the case with IA. Interesting how the normally liberal world of Hollywood is following the lead of other mainstream corporations. Ryan Vernon [EMAIL PROTECTED] com wrote: Just pulled this off one of my other boards and felt it would be worth sharing. Ryan Vernon -- Forwarded Message Good Morning! I'm sorry to send such a large, mass-email, but I readthis article in this morning's Daily Variety, and I felt compelled to send this along. Scott Harris, the President of Innovative Artists Agency in SantaMonica, announced, via MEMO, on Friday, that he was cutting ALL HEALTHBENEFITS for the 50+ assistants and LOWER-level employess, RETROACTIVEto June 1st. He stated that the decision was made after muchdeliberation in the face of the ever-increasing costs of medicalpremiums. However, the move did NOT affect the AGENTS orAGENT-TRAINEES, only the lower-level employees, all of whom earn inthe range of $400-$425/week. MAXIMUM. Harris only offers payincreases 1 time per year, in the amount of $25/week. What does thismean? If an assistant stays at Innovative for 3 years, their endingsalary would be $475. In addition, an amount of roughly $40 per WEEK is deducted to cover HEALTH BENEFITS. So, after each employee contributes an amount of about $170 PER MONTH for a health benefit program that only covers 60%, (after deductable), Mr. Harris decides to CUT the benefits for these GROSSLY underpaid assistants, in order to save money. Yet his cuts do NOT affect those whose salaries are MORE than enough to cover private health care. He even had the GALL to say this: Most Innovative assistants are very young and do not have medical issues (and hence do not get much value from the coverage),he wrote. Harris said the agency would institute a new pay structure for assistants that would allow them to make more money, which he felt was a higher priority for them. The worst part? He was OUT OF THE COUNTRY when he sent this memo.This coward didn't even have the strength of character to FACE his employees when he cut their benefits. Why does this bother me? Many reasons: #1. This is just one example of the huge injustice that these large companies get away with time and time again. It occurred in the Wal-Mart corporation just last year, the US Government cut Veteran's benefits - its an unending cycle that is continuing to propagate because the majority of people are turning a blind eye. #2. These cuts are primarily affecting the lowest paid individuals. #3. He made the assumption that most assistants are young and don't require medical care. If this were true, then children wouldn't require Pediatricians. Young people wouldn't require Preventative Care. No one, especially not the YOUNG WOMEN who happen to become pregnant, require any healthcare. YOUNG = NO NEED for doctors. It is reverse ageism, if nothing else. It is no better than cutting the prescription benefits for the elderly. If this were just an issue at one small company in Santa Monica, I probably wouldn't be so bothered. But this is a MUCH larger issue that I am starting to see a seriously disturbing pattern of. So, I've decided to try to spearhead a grass-roots campaign.Obviously, we can't change everything. But if everyone shares this information with other people, we can reach a large enough audience to enact change. To start, I am beginning a letter-writing campaign to Mr. Scott Harris, President of Innovative Artists. My goal is to have him innundated with at least 500 letters stating our outrage at his AUDACIOUS and CRIMINAL act. If this works, then it will be a good sign that affecting a greater change is possible.

Thanks! Yeah, getting sponsorship is great. I'm grateful, even though it's not a lot of money. I know this: the next round of vids will be worth much more. Probably double. My show is sponsored by the well-funded Greater Philadelphia Tourism and Marketing Corporation (http://gophila.com) and their 'hip' what's-happening-now blog http://uwishunu.com . For them it's all about image and promoting the city as a fun place to be. We're getting money for 24 episodes. I'd say for anyone to videoblog full time, it depends on their circumstances. Me, I'm a young (relatively!) starving artist. I'm used to living on a super small budget. But I'm gettin' married to my co-creator, Audrey in the Fall. I'm sure I'll need a bigger budget then!

For them it's all about image and promoting the city as a fun place to be. We're getting money for 24 episodes. Well, I think that's an important part of the get paid to videoblog equation. I think you have to do something that someone sees as an aid to their business so that they want to be involved with you. Doing it the other way wouldn't work, IMO, unless you lucked out and what you liked to do just so happened to be something that someone else could get visibility for their product or service from. Ability to attain sponsorship may be something for someone to seriously consider at the ground floor if monetization is a goal with their videoblog at all. I'd say for anyone to videoblog full time, it depends on their circumstances. Me, I'm a young (relatively!) starving artist. I'm used to living on a super small budget.

[videoblogging] Re: How much money to videoblog full-time?
I'm currently creating and selling a show. I've asked for more than $1k a week to make three weekly three-minute episodes. We'll see how far down I have to negotiate. I've also signed onto two video projects for $500 per day (including writing, production, and post). I charge more for anything commercial (an in-house promotional video) or anything that requires original writing than to cover an event. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Bill Cammack BillCammack@ wrote: If you were entertaining offers to videoblog as your full-time job, how much money would that take you to make the leap? -- Bill C. http://billcammack.com

Your site crashes both firefox and safari on my macbook pro a ways into connecting/loading the mogulus player.

Interesting website Mark, I really like the term poverty jet set, unfortunately I am one of it's members! It's good to see Philadelphia has an idea about internet marketing. Im in Australia, and the government tourism agenices only want to steal your ideas, and the tourism operators dont always understand cutting edge like online video programs...and then you have the likes of lonely planet, that try and eat up all the small fishes, stealing ideas and paying a pittancedo I sound pissed off...he he From experience, I would say the best way to get into video blogging full time is make ONE pilot program, and then hit your advertising market, ring them (skype is cheap for national calls) visit them, tell them what you plan to do. See what interest is out there. And try and keep your idea under cover. I've had concepts stolen by bigger players, and there isnt much you can do. I did things the wrong way, started an online video site in 2001 (ozdocos.com) just went out there and did it (funding my travels myself) and only now, trying to sign up advertisers, but then again, only now, do I believe the time is ripe for online video. Unfortunately youtube has set an ugly precedent, user generated content is great, but most creators are happy to just get views, if you want to get moolah for your hard work, that is more difficult. For example, I can list my videos on lonelyplanet.tv, travelistic.com, and numerous other travel video website...but none of the bastards pay, dont even share their ad revenue. I'm interested to know WHO is making a living from video blogging? I dont think anyone is? And I'm also interested to know what google pay there partners, but every partner is tight lipped, even Nalts, who only got the deal due to the youtube community. I know here in Australia NO ONE is making a full time living video blogging, commercial work must take precedence over vlogging.
