Re: [videoblogging] Re: eBooks and vLogs

A great looking iPhone ebook app called Enhanced Editions was released  
last week:

http://aptstudio.com/timesemit/2009/09/09/enhanced-editions-for-iphone/

It syncs text and audio - so you can switch between the two without  
losing your place - and has embedded video clips.

Not open to the public to use - but good implementation of ebooks if  
you wanted inspiration.

 pretty much has to be downloadable as you want all the media to be
 included in the pdf (doesn't have to be put plays best).

 however if i were to do this now I'd probably be making an iPhone/
 touch app that was actually a book with video in it. see Mark
 Amerika's Immobilité (http://www.immobilite.com/extras/) for an idea.

Great discussion.

Have been working on a digitally-based (and world-based) multi-media
documentary forever.

It keeps shape-shifting, etc., but definitely want it to exist as a
documentary motion picture.

Here it is, so far:

http://depressionstrategies.blogspot.com/2008/12/worlds-longest-open-love-letter.html

Using Blip.tv's show player to drag and drop vlog entries around, in and
out. It's at a point where I need more brains involved. That stopped me.
When I had some money, spent it on an editor / blogger / cinematographer
(thanks @Quirk).

Stopped for work and frustration at where to go. It will begin eventually.
Probably in January when the work dries up.

It's really fucking difficult.

 interesting points. :-)

 the other side of this of course is that some do both, but that one
 practice might not need to come into the other (if that makes sense).
 the web as most of the 2.0 stuff shows, is ideal for serial practice/
 production, small pieces, loose connections. about networks, joins,
 pathways and bite sized up to snack sized. this can and should work
 really well in doco, but as noted in some of the comments, a lot of
 doco practice is still about much larger scale works. So for me the
 questions are:

 1. what would a web native video doc be? (Seth Keen is answering this
 one way, Florian Thalhofer another.)
 2. how might this be combined with trad. doco?
 3. blogs are already documentary, so what needs to change (in us or
 the maker) to think of it more formerly as documentary in the video
 mode?

That's been my vlog manifesto for years.

Nice to see it written down.

 While waiting for all my photos and videos to backup, I followed a
 link on Twitter from @kmog which took me to Lomography's Ten Golden
 Rules.

 Lomography is all about analogue photography.

 But I like the rules as inspiration for daily  mobile videoblogging.

 -

 http://www.lomography.com/about/the-ten-golden-rules
 1. Take your camera everywhere you go.

 2. Use it any time – day and night.

 3. Lomography is not an interference in your life, but part of it.

 4. Try the shot from the hip.

 5. Approach the objects of your Lomographic desire as close as
 possible.

 6. Don’t think. (William Firebrace)

 7. Be fast.

 8. You don’t have to know beforehand what you captured on film.

 9. Afterwards either.

 10. Don’t worry about any rules.

 -

 And now my backup is done.

This is -- in part -- why I've given up trying to maintain my WordPress

 Thanks for the info.

 If you are getting rid of them via phpmyadmin then there is stuff in the
 usermeta table that you should also be deleting, otherwise some future users
 could find themselves with admin rights!

  If you haven't heard yet, there is an attack happening on all versions

  not already running 2.8.4 was that they had hidden admin users on
  them. The sneaky thing about that is that you may not have any other
  symptoms besides these hidden accounts and then think you are safe
  once you've upgraded. The are, essentially, back doors left on your
  site to be exploited later. So you have to make sure to get rid of
  them. The process is a little tricky – at least it's not a typical
  WordPress user operation so I've documented two ways to do it in this
  screencast.
