Re: [videoblogging] Best Youtube compression out of Adobe Premiere CS3
I've been getting quite a bit of success by softening my videos a bit. . It makes sense when you think about it. If you take the edges off the image, there is less information, meaning the bitrate will have more of the good stuff in there and not get bogged down on the jagged edges of a picket fence or window blinds. So what I've been doing with my stuff recently is taking it right out of iMovie or FCP as an h.264, 320x240 .mov file at a bitrate of 1000 with a blur setting of one in the filter. Examples: http://youtube.com/watch?v=dvHHhxsUlQc (progressive...thanks BC) http://youtube.com/watch?v=hEd1962JH2k Old non-blurred footage: http://youtube.com/watch?v=3rUMNSxBK3Y http://youtube.com/watch?v=_EgYT0BKc-g We do lots of panning and it's high action footage and our image quality has dramatically improved since doing this.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Plugin for Video Comments
it's not necessary that comments be posted directly TO the comment box on a blog post. I personally feel that the best potential of all is to track and display the back and forth BETWEEN blogs /vlogs using permalink tracking. Joe vlogs -- Mary vlogs about Joe's post linking directly to Joe's vlog post -- Joe responds on his vlog linking to Mary's post. Then via various third party systems and track-back mechanisms this conversation becomes visible... trackable... and even RSS subscribe-able... sort of like a tag meme... but much more natural. All that's MISSING from this equation is the tracker to make this dialogue that's already happening visible. H.so are you saying we need some service to do track these conversations? tell me how it works from a user's perspective. how does a tracker help me follow conversations across different sites?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: HV20 Camera Noise
For the Solo Video Practitioner: Your statements here are why I advocate simply keeping the camera (a small camera) within 3 feet of the speaking subject for the solo practitioner who wants good sound. It takes a good long time to get good at recording good sound with lots of tools in the mix AND your dedicated ear, listening to what's going down on tape. If you ear is NOT dedicated, you're going to screw it up eventually - and the more gear you have between the voice and the medium the more chance of goofing it up. What I LOVE about this medium is that you CAN do quality work without all the bells whistles. I know what it is to work with all the bells whistles. To heck with that :) Another suggestion for the solo practitioner: Consider two recording devices. One for video and one for audio. Use the camera for excellent b-roll of the subject and environment. Record an audio-only interview where you can really focus on questions and answers and know to a great deal of certainty that you are getting good audio. Then cut the two together. Here's an example of that idea used to good effect: http://fauxpress.blogspot.com/2007/04/composer-andrew-shapiro-interview.html Jan On Jan 31, 2008 11:38 PM, Brook Hinton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Every HV20 seems to have a diffferent level of mechanical noise, but they are all a bit loud. The DM50 does not do well vs. the videomics according to those who have used both. The DM50 is a decidedly consumer product - both the Rode's are designed to bring pro level sound to high-Z consumer/prosumer equipment. Beachtek boxes and the like are great IF you already have a $500+ pro mic and a good mount for it. I have used them on multiple cameras. They do NOT improve the mic preamp you are stuck with in the camera (fortunately the HV20's hi-z preamp isn't nearly as bad as those on Sony's consumer cams). But the Rode videomics really change this equation, as they can deliver excellent sound and are DESIGNED for camtop use. I have a beachtek, phantom power supply, and $900 AT4073s that I use in a variety of applications, and I even HAVE a camtop shock mount that works with them, but I'm still going for the videomic (probably both models) for my HV20. I wish the videomics were smaller and less look at me in appearance, but the only better option there is the tinymic, and they are uber uber pricey (and that tiny diaphragm just makes me nervous. How can it be a shotgun mic when my first impulse is to convert it into a contact mic?) There are reports that the stereo videomic still picks up camera noise in very quiet environments, while the shotgun model is less prone to this. yeah, lavs solve a lot of problems. For straight talent on camera work a GOOD wireless lav setup is wise, but in general I don't like the sound of lavs. I prefer even imperfect open sound that has a sense of space to the sound of lavs, as long as intelligibibility isn't an issue. The best sound will always be from an overhead boom as close to the subject as possible, but that doesn't help the solo filmmaker.

[videoblogging] FEEDBACK NEEDED: Space and Logisitcs For Vlog Europe 2008

Re: [videoblogging] FEEDBACK NEEDED: Space and Logisitcs For Vlog Europe 2008
Hey all, First of all, thanks to Jeffrey for doing the research on this. Does anyone who have more experience fom Budapest have other suggestions? I think the idea of having a communal space where we meet is essential. In past VlogEurope sessions we have had clusters of people sharing space, and it has added greatly to the experience of the whole event. The reason why we want these things to be settled already now months before the event is that it enables us to get better deals as well as ensure that our booking does not come so late that everything is occupied. My personal hope is that we can have 2 such clusters settled within a short period of time, and that as we get people filled into the hives, we can begin working on the context of the weekend, finding not only topics to cover this year, but also presenters, and a way for the different 'sessions' to lead to something being created (which was a focus introduced during the 06 VlogEurope in Milan). We will be filling the VlogEuerope blog with further information and discussion about topics and ideas over the coming weeks, that is at www.vlogeurope.com So again: If you have better suggestions for spaces in Budapest, please let us know. And yes, of course you are free to just choose your own hotel/hostel that weekend. We will not Force you to eat your breakfast while 8 other people are filming your face :) Best, Raymond M.

One thing that was mentioned during my talk at Video People 2008 was this videoblogging list. I stressed the importance for them to talk to each other, since this is so new over here that they are the ones defining the medium here in Japan... so I told them to start a mailing list and start sharing information. Just like this one. So if you read Japanese (though there will be some English speaking folks on there as well.. heck, some of them are on this list lurking and learning!), feel free to join up: http://groups.google.com/group/videoblogjapan Tajee is the moderator, so I know the list is in great hands. Only good can come out of this. I have always dreamed of being able to see personal video come out of a place like Japan.

Get a microphone that works well within 3 feet of you or less, put it on a stand outside the range of your shot, do some testing then forget about it. The videos will sound better. If you have the option to record straight to your hard drive and skip the tape, even better. Jake Ludington http://www.jakeludington.com

Yeah but your footage is not handheld. When the cam is on a tripod the footage in most cases looks great, especially if the scene is well lit. Now, you were talking about blurring the video instead of sharpening it?? Did I miss something? I mean those examples looked nice but I am sure if you would have sharpened them they would look even better. Also, I noticed a weird thing about youtube yesterday. When I opened that same resulting video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exvu8Bqx5vQ)in Internet Exploer 6, the video looked not as sharp as on Firefox 2. Another thing I noticed is when you press that little screen button on youtube player on that video it doesn't scale down. Which made me wonder if youtube is wising up and finally using the H.264 engine, hence the very sharp video. What are your thoughts on this guys?

Just came across this on DVCreators.net Looks remarkably similar to the Rode many people were raving about. http://www.dvcreators.net/the-sennheiser-mke-400-shotgun-mic/ --To give you an idea of the size, it's physical length and width is that of your pinky finger. Yes, that's one amazingly short shotgun microphone. It's surprisingly directional for such a small mic. The design team at Sennheiser was able to innovate while answering the market's request for an even smaller on-camera mic. They maintained the same high quality sound since they built the very first shotgun mic, yes, Sennheiser invented the interference tube design that all of today's shotgun mics are based on. This mic is a great upgrade to a stock mic because it improves sound, yet is so unobtrusive. Attached to a mid sized camera, I can easily maneuver through a crowd without attracting too much attention. That's great when you need to be stealth. Yet you're still getting that high quality sound that Sennheiser is famous for- and that sound is from the direction that you're shooting - great for events, Steadicam, ENG, behind the scenes and documentary style work.The accessory pack is a must! It adds both the wind stopping long haired wind muff and an XLR adapter. This is a must have upgrade to any small camera's stock mic. -- adam

You can also buy shoe shock mounts a la carte for around $30: http://urltea.com/2mj0 I have the HV20 with one of those shock mounts and this Azden mic: http://urltea.com/2mj1 It's a nice little set up for under $100. The mic picks up only what you point it at. I've found it's necessary to use the external mic at all times. I've only shot a few things without it, and you can hear the camera mechanism pretty obviously, like in the first 5 seconds of this video: http://www.vimeo.com/435808 Other than this minor flaw, the HV20 is the best little camera I've ever had.

If you could map link structures between blogs then the patterns that form, and the clusters (eg your blog would be a dense node since many others link to it) provide ways of visualising and *discovering* relationships. There are mapping tools that already do this well. But if you take this down to the post level, then things get really interesting. This is because it is all about granularity, so if you can see that there is a cluster (a series of connections between parts) then you can discover new things, precisely because the structures that emerge in blogging (relations between blog posts) are emergent rather than predetermined or hierarchical. If we could quote video, or refer in video to video, then you could do the same thing in video posts. So my video post which refers to your post, and Sull's, and Andreas', and is also refered to by 3 other people, well all these linsk would be available. I could then map these patterns (zooming up and down), and I could follow them as links just like the old fashioned web link surfing way. A tracker helps because it makes visible these connections. t/his is one of the biggest achievements of blogging - trackback. HTTP as a protocol sucks at letting you know who connects (links) to your content. I know who my pages link to - I wrote the links, but how do I 'see' the links in to my page (once again as Mike pointed out, Ted Nelson saw and described all this in the mid 60s). Trackback partly solves this, but if a link comes from a site that doesn't support trackback (any site that isn't a specific type of blog) then I still don't really know about it (though I can use Google to find links but that's a very slow way of going about something). The next step, in relation to text, is to apply a thesaurus, since then you can use link anchors (what text hte link is from) to get a metric for how 'abstract' the connections are, where a good and simple rule of thumb is that the more abstract the link anchor then generally the more theoretical or abstract (or 'high level') the conversation. Eg a links that keep going from words like idea' and 'epistemology' suggest a different sort of discussion and connection than links from home', 'their blog' etc. YOu can also use the link text to build tag clouds (sometimes I really should be snaffled up by some start up) cheers Adrian Miles [EMAIL PROTECTED] bachelor communication honours coordinator vogmae.net.au

Re: [videoblogging] Re: HV20 Camera Noise
What are you capturing with? Have you tried HDVSplit? http://strony.aster.pl/paviko/ That's what I use to capture 24p stuff. Premiere seems to work fine for regular 1080i footage with no dropped frames (yet). I haven't had any dropout problems with either tape format though. And I haven't seen any other noticeable differences in quality, so I'm thinking I'll just stick with regular DV and save myself a few bucks a tape.
