[videoblogging] Dumb Idiots Video Blog To Return

2009-05-10 Thread Pat Cook

Hi everyone:

Recently I have decided revive the Dumbass Idiots Video Blog I have which 
features dumb people caught in the act of doing dumb things, but I'm retooling 
it whereas it takes after the spirit of TruTV's World's Dumbest. series.

The videos will also be streamed as well in Windows Media 
Nullsoft Streaming Video  formats as well (Using VP 6.2 as the codec
for NSV).

I'll post more videos soon (Some will be originals), but for now, I just wanted 
to make this announcement while I attempt to build a website for it.

Cheers :)

Re: [videoblogging] Is This Legal?

 Is is legal to show someone else's private house on TV and/or online without
 their permission? I am doing a video about a developer who bought up several
 houses in one area with the intention of demolishing them and turning the
 residential neighborhood commercial. Area residents are not amused. I don't
 think he will be either when he sees the video.

I am not a lawyer, but nothing you plan to show sounds illegal.

the larger issue will be what you then say about the developer.  
filming in public, of things that are public, except where explicit  
invasion of privacy is concerned, is generally OK. (though this varies  
country to country of course, but I'd think in your case in the US  
filming in public is OK, but as I mentioned, what you then go on to  
say is where the pointy end of media law might matter).

Thanks to all who replied. I'm not going to say anything about the developer. 
Area residents will, but it's all pretty tame so far. I can't be at the 
upcoming town board meeting due to a scheduling conflict, but I have lent them 
a cheapo camera and they plan to tape the public comment section. That's when 
things might get heated, but I'm just the messenger.

If the houses get demolished I plan to juxtapose before and after video. This 
should have some impact, but it's not libelous or anything like that.

But anyone can sue anyone for anything or nothing, and if he wants to sue me I 
guess he will.

Re: [videoblogging] VideoBlogging From Asia

2009-05-10 Thread Jay dedman
 I'm a military pensioner desiring to travel, film, upload, and get paid.
 Around August 2009 I'll begin touring in Hawaii then the Philippines, Guam,
 and Viet Nam for 2 years.
 Was considering employing a grant writer to raise funds to pay expenses of
 making an interesting video blog or Satellite presentation. Expenses for
 locating and employing crewmembers met during my travels.
 Any advice, recommendations or suggestions?

If you havent already, be smart to write a brief paragraph explaining
what exactly you plan to document. From your description so far, it's
unclear what we'd actually see.

As far as getting grants or making money to videoblog, welcome to the
big challenge. If you can pull it off, youll have lots of advice to
give people here.

As long as the pictures are taken from a public location, it's okay.

I carry a copy of the Photographer's Right in my wallet. You can get a PDF of 
it here:

http://www.krages.com/phoright.htm

The general rule in the United States is that anyone may take photographs of 
whatever they want when they are in a public place or places where they have 
permission to take photographs.

I encourage everyone to carry a copy of this to refer to in case they are 
confronted.

[videoblogging] Reminder: Open Video Conference in June

2009-05-10 Thread Jay dedman
If you've been trying to find an excuse to visit NYC this June, don't
forget about the Open Video Conference. Be a very cool group of folks
coming together. Time to sign up.

Jay

The Open Video Conference (June 19-20 in NYC) is asking big questions
about the future of video online.

As the medium matures, we face a crossroads: will technology and
public policy support a more participatory culture—one that encourages
and enables free expression and broader cultural engagement? Or will
online video become a glorified TV-on-demand service, a central part
of a permissions-based culture? Web video holds tremendous potential,
but limits on broadband, playback technology, and fair use threaten to
undermine the ability of individuals to engage in dialogues in and
around this new media ecosystem.

Open Video Conference
June 19-20, 2009
New York City
40 Washington Square South (NYU Law School)
http://openvideoconference.org

Bestselling author Clay Shirky will give a talk about the disruptive
effects of the web. Harvard Professor Jonathan Zittrain (TBC) will
moderate a discussion on industry perspectives with Boxee CEO Avner
Ronen, Blip.tv CEO Mike Hudack, and representatives from YouTube and
Adobe. Lizz Winstead, activist and co-creator of The Daily Show, will
discuss web video as political commentary. Legendary hacker Jon Lech
Johansen (DVD Jon) will address data portability. Mozilla, makers of
the Firefox web browser, will highlight what it's doing to cement open
video standards. You'll hear from Anthony Falzone—executive director
at Stanford's Fair Use Project and counsel to graphic artist Shepherd
Fairey—about the new battle lines drawn around fair use. Voices from
the blogosphere, public media, and traditional media will explore the
ways to make their content work in an open video ecosystem, and much
more.

This is just a peek—have a look at our schedule page for more details:
http://www.openvideoconference.org/agenda

In addition to two full days of high-profile programming, you can
expect a slate of workshops and behind-the-scenes technical working
groups with leading edge video developers from free software projects
like: VLC, Ogg Theora, GStreamer, Blender, PiTiVi, Miro, Kaltura,
Firefox, and many more. This event should interest anyone with a stake
in art, culture, technology, policy, journalism, or online business.

Organizers and partners include: Participatory Culture Foundation,
Yale ISP, iCommons, Kaltura, Mozilla, Harvard's Berkman Center, Free
Press, Creative Commons, and more.
