Re: [videoblogging] Re: Disclosures, disclosures





[Knew it. Knew all along Richard was CIA. Ya know, they send those guys for 
six months' training at Stand Up NY these days?]

I've been trying to figure out an answer to this question since the topic 
came up.

If the question is (don't lost the question): Do you have some hidden agenda 
that affects your presence in the vlogosphere? My answer - beyond a pressing 
need to better learn to create moving pictures / sound and grow an 
audience - is, "No."

I freelance and actually take a great risk posting vids taken at work but 
I'm as passionate about the income-producing technical work as I am the art 
and @ center, there's no difference between one and the other. Suspect I've 
lost one job directly related to videoblogging, but that was bottom line a 
good thing, psychologically if not fiscally. Like my grannie says, "Screw 
'em if they can't take a joke."

Siobhan,

Here's a trick: find a page you like? View the source code.

View --> Source Code

In that way you'll begin to understand html, too.

Re: [videoblogging] Trying to get back in the saddle



They are both squirley. I have to use FireFox to edit HTML in my Blogger brand blogs. But I think Safari is faster. Sometimes things work in one and not the other. Sometimes the HTML code of the new sites is not behaving properly. This is particularly true at Blip.tv (beta) - they don't call it Beta for nothin' - and at ourmedia.org where the graphics and buttons plain outright never appear in one or the other but htey don't call it beta - cause it's more like Alpha over there.The Blip.tv html editor is so bad I had to stop going there. Too many random curser flip outs. I'm giving them a week to get their act together. Then I'll try again. I like their overall setup. But not the html wild wild text.Loved your reply to Randolfe. Wow.

Re: [videoblogging] Jason's Vlog

Happy Birthday Jason,How young did you just become? Your videos are AWESOME!! Nice pants.You need to add to your email signature.I want to know what setting difference you have that lets your playable video appear in your RSS feed.Mine only shows text and you must go to my site to see any video images that you can then play. I must have put on the truncate without links thingy or I don't remember which setting i got wrong. Any help?All my videos in iTunes via the add from advanced menu item play without sound. But at the site they play just fine. Did I blow a FeedBurner setting somewhere? Was it the one that kills all links? But if that was it then why does the video play at all? What a bummer to discover how to get on iTunes only to be MUTE!!This is the MUTE videographer signing OFF. Over and well all my sound is definitely OUT.How do I get my sound IN?

[videoblogging] My Videos Audio PLAY in Quicktime Player NOT in Column Preview NOR iTunes Player





My Videos Audio PLAY in Quicktime Player NOT in Column Preview NOR  
iTunes Player

I went into my iTunes folder to find the videos I had downloaded from  
the RSS Feed Subscription Feature in the Advanced Menu. I tried to  
play them in Preview still with NO AUDIO. double click on them they  
launch in QuickTime player where they play perfectly WITH SOUND!

So it appears that column view Preview play  AND video playback in  
iTunes are NOT H.264 Compatible.

How's that for a Press Release???

[videoblogging] My iTunes and Preview Play my video MUTE





I just did a new install of Tiger on a 700 MHz Flat Panel iMac G4 and  
my video is playing perfectly with sound in iTunes 4.9 Syndicated  
Podcast page - note the RED Explicit attention boxes. I am also at  
the top of your Podcast list as a result of using Option + 8 + Space  
in front of the Blog Title. These are a couple of tricks I learned  
from the Sex and Podcasting Guru Mike O'Connor .

Playing with sound looking good under Panther 10.3.9 and QuickTime  
6.5 (not 6.5.2). So H.264 playback capability has been in QT longer  
than I was led to believe by your guys.

Now they play in my Tiger 10.4.2 with sound that didn't before.

Could I please have the perfect compression recipe Michael? I've lost  
track of it all. But I would like to keep it down to 2-3 MB a minute  
if that's ok with you. I am totally on Jan's side about the need to  
keep it all small.

That Canter piece is over 5MB a minute which I consider unacceptably  
large.

And what's up with the downloads that are FAKE? You see the download  
happen and at the end it didn't happen and nothing plays and it  
disappears from the folder in the iTunes' Podcast FutureMedia folder.  
Is that a server issue at the archive.org or at Blip.tv or at  
ourmedia.org? Progress bar slides as if it's coming down then nothing  
stays down - poof it's gone.

Glitchy Glitchy Glitchy    but I'm not bitchy bitchy  
bitchy    no I wait for answers.

[videoblogging] Re: My iTunes and Preview Play my video MUTE

2005-08-14 Thread Steve Watkins

Dont know whats going on there, H264 should not playback unless you
have QT7. It certainly wasnt misguided info from anyone here, Apple
themselves have made a big deal of H264 being new with QT7.

You sure the video you tried on 10.3.9 with QT 6.5 was definately H264?

As for the 'fake downloads' problem, what do those videos look like in
the podcasting window of itunes - any icons next to them? In the past
I have had a few failed downloads, mostly due to temporary server
problems, but I think it shows me an icon next to the relevant
entries, and clicking on it provides more info, cant quite remember.

Sound worked fine on your videos for me in Itunes 4.9 on 10.4.2

Cheers

Re: [videoblogging] My iTunes and Preview Play my video MUTE

2005-08-14 Thread Michael Verdi

Hey Kunga,
You can follow the tutorial at Freevlog - http://freevlog.org/ 
#compress - look at the iMovie one because it uses QT 7.  If you  
don't want 5MB/min videos just lower the data rate to about 200kbits/ 
sec and make the video dimensions smaller - 240 X 180.  I think this  
produces generally crappy looking video but some people are more  
concerned about file size.  I think if you just keep your videos to  
less than 5 minutes and use the higher data rate you be fine.  Your  
videos will be under 20MB.

[videoblogging] iTunes 1-click subscribe

2005-08-14 Thread petertheman






> Holy iTunes Sub Batman !!!  I had no idea you could add a NON-Listed  
> RSS feed to iTunes that way.

Yes, iTunes can play pretty much any feed with Quicktime or audio
enclosures.

And check this:
http://mefeedia.com/help/_javascript_/itunes.php

A new feature :)

Following the instructions on that page, you can add a 1-click
subscribe button for your vlog to your website. If someone clicks it,
iTunes will open up and they'll be automagically subscribed, *even* if
you're not listed in the directory.

You actually need 2 buttons, 1 for PC and 1 for Mac (iTunes sucks like
that), the page explains it all.

If your videos don't show up in iTunes it's probably because
a) you don't do Quicktime videos
b) your feed doesn't use enclosures

Let me know if you have any questions. Hope you like it :)

[videoblogging] An email alert tool for your blog?

2005-08-14 Thread maasdw





Does anyone know if there is a tool anywhere that will alert people
(who want to be alerted) when your Blogger vlog has been updated/added
to?  You know, people could enter their email address in a box
somewhere and whenever you post a new vlog they would be emailed? 
Does such a thing exist and would one ever want to use such a thing?

Not sure about Blogger, but MovableType (and probably TypePad) have
Notifications that allow you to do exactly that.

Re: [videoblogging] Questions Regarding Sponsorships, Underwriting, Ads, and Rates, etc.

2005-08-14 Thread Randolfe Wicker






I agree with Jan.  There seems to be a very 
special quality of openness and cooperation and excitement among 
vloggers.
 
Making money out of what passionately involves you 
far too frequently involves what I call "prostitution of the soul".  I was 
a professional writer for several years.  I finally resolved to go into 
retailing and to only use my writing skill in a manner which pleased 
me.
 
My "last" professional writing assignment was to go 
down to a bank and write a story about "how the bank communicated to its new 
employees that it was genuinely concerned about his or her welfare".  Doing 
that made me want to puke.  I would rather shine shoes for passers-by on a 
street corner than slave away writing something I really disliked.

The archive Mefeedia builds is (techie talk) just a list of links,
images with stylesheets.

I had a go to copy the style of Michael's archive. What you have to do
is to add this to your stylesheet:

.mefeedia-thumb {
  margin: 25px;
  padding: 5px;
  border: 1px solid #CC;
}

So find your stylesheet file and add the above to it. Then your
archive should look like this:

http://poorbuthappy.com/ease/archives/2005/08/09/2805/video-archive

You can play with it to adjust the distance between pictures, the
color of the grey border and so on.

To do the hover link Michael has, you have to get the nicetitle
_javascript_ and css he has (do view source on his website).

I wrote some more explanation here:

Hope that helps!

Re: [videoblogging] Sustainable vlogging (time-wise)

2005-08-14 Thread Steve Garfield

I enjoy the editing process.  I like to take time to put the footage, 
I've shot together, to tell a story.  What makes videoblogging 
interesting and fun to me is the whole process of videoblogging.  
Shooting and editing.   Usually I spend a few hours editing.

Videoblogging makes my life more fun.  The whole process of getting out 
the camera enhances my experiences with others.  So I'm not taking time 
away from anything to shoot, I'm usually just bringing the camera 
along.

We're not making TV, but we are making videoblogging.  That can be a 
moment showing or it can be a scripted three camera sitcom.  What I 
think makes videoblogging unique is that anyone can pick up a camera, 
post their video and share their lives.  Josh Leo's recent video about 
his trip to the farm was a good example of doing more than just sharing 
video of his trip to a farm. 
joshleo.blogspot.com/2005/07/scottish-highlands.html

He shared his feelings about the trip both before and after.  So as we 
watch more of his videos we really get to know him as a person.

Videoblogging is people.

Time spent videoblogging is time well spent.

QT's interaction with your file system is very limited. You can't write a  
virus if you can't make QT handle executables or at least write to the  
file system. a QT virus is impossible.

There is a theory about that kind communication saying that you can only  
"seduce" your customers if you yourself has been "seduced". Simply meaning  
that you can't "sell" a product without being "sold" yourself first. If  
the writing assignment made you want to puke the result will most likely  
also make the customers want to puke.

Ok.  The buttons are now on my blogspot page.  They look great! 
Unfortunately, they don't do a thing!
Here's my stuff:
Box - PC
Browser - Firefox
OS - XP Pro SP2
Itunes - 4.9.0.17
RSS Feed - http://feeds.feedburner.com/icenryevideo
Mefeedia ID - 527
QT - Pro 6.5.2

When I click on my button , iTunes opens, but nothing shows up.  If I
drag the PC link to iTunes, the blog name shows up, but I get an "!"
telling me there's no feed.

The mac link, however, when dragged to iTunes seems to work!

Looking at the code I notice the mac link contains my feedburner link.
 So I dragged the feedburner link into iTunes, an voila!  Video.  I'm
guessing the problem is with  this:
http://mefeedia.com/pcast/527.pcast link.

I thought the problem might be my coding, but the link on "Dummycast"
didn't work and I have a link to Michael Verdi's site which also comes
up empty.

On a better note, I've added the archive thumbnail code to my site and
it looks good so far.  A few entries missing, however you mentioned it
will get better in time.  I'm, looking forward to more great stuff
from Mefeedia.

Interesting. I have WinXP, Firefox, and I just tried the Windows
button and it worked great - iTunes is downloading your video as we
speak. Are you sure you clicked the right button (not the mac one)?

Yes, that works too.

I'll look into it. What that link does, is make 1-click subscribe in
iTunes possible on Windows.

"seduce" your customers if you yourself has been "seduced". Simply
meaning  
that you can't "sell" a product without being "sold" yourself first.
If  
the writing assignment made you want to puke the result will most
likely  
also make the customers want to puke.

In layman's terms: You ain't fooling nobody. :o)

Andrew, before I found this group I spent about a 
week exploring vlogs on the Internet.  Rocketboom was one of vlogs which 
stood out as being sophisticated and professional.
 
I'm sure you will have a rapidly growing audience 
as you continue.  In fact, I suspect you might find yourself "tempted" with 
offers from commercial broadcasters very soon.
 
I noticed you mentioned wanting to have third world 
sources for your vlog.  A documentary maker who did a great piece of work 
entitled "Book Wars" is now located in Cambodia and attempting to film and 
report on indigenous people in that country.  I forwarded your post to 
him.  Don't know if he will be interested or not. Just thought the two of 
you should be aware of each other's existence. JRE-mail 
Address(es):  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
I think your description of how music became 
democratized and enabled musicians to earn a range of income instead of being 
made millionaires or left to starve by "gatekeepers" is right on target. 
Vlogging is a new art form and method of communication.  Blogs have 
exploded to over 14.2 million with 40,000 new ones every day because people now 
can publish their writings on the Internet.  I am sure vlogs will increase 
very rapidly also.  It's just a question as to "how" money and 
commercialization is going to impact vlogging and change it.
 
First you had the three big networks.  Then 
you had cable channels.  Now you have vlogs.  Each one expanded the 
opportunities to have yourself seen and heard.

  priorities. I'm finding that the  list is not scrolling, its just 
  getting longer every day.We are at a place right now where its 
  starting to snowball in this  way; the list keeps getting longer, no

  instance:Man, I love it and get all lit up when I see an HD camera. I 
  like  gadgets and this is becoming "the" gadget for me. But alas, I

  very favorite parts to Rocketboom and the reason why I  started it,

  could easily drop everything and be happy just surfing all  day, 
  writing a text blog and eating macaroni and cheese for the rest  of

  Rocketboom would  be to build up a team of incredible writers so we

  enjoy the actual act of using software to edit video. I have  spent 
  10 years doing this with audio and I'm just bored by the  activity, 
  personally. We had to hire an editor for Rocketboom mostly  because 
  it was almost impossible physically to not sleep and we  already 
  don't sleep without editing anyway. If I had the money, I'd  try to 
  hire Verdi to edit along with the really great editor that we  have 
  now, Andre (so that they could share the work and have more time  to 
  do other things themselves).I HATE to be on camera. I have tried it. I

  pace, warming up to it,  but I am not letting this feeling that I

  involves trying to create something out of nothing. Everone is their

[videoblogging] Toronto meetup first week of October

2005-08-14 Thread Frank Carver






Some of you may remember that I mentioned this a month or two ago. I'm
bringing my wife and kids over to Toronto for a family wedding at the
start of October.

We've now booked our flights, so the dates are a bit more set. The
wedding is on October 1st, and we will be staying in Canada, exploring
the area and the sights and generally available from October 2nd until
we fly out on October 8th.

I would really would love to get together at some point with some
local videobloggers. I'll have a rental car so anywhere within
striking distance of Toronto would probably be OK. If anyone from the
US side is interested in meeting up that would be great too - either
someone crosses over the border, or we can just film each other from
either side of the gorge at Niagara Falls :)

I don't know if I'm going to manage it yet, but I'm also hoping to get
to visit one end or another of the eurovloggercon in Amsterdam - I
think it would be quite cool to carry "virtual wishes" from one group
to another.

If anyone _is_ interested in meeting up, please contact me, and we'll
see what we can work out.

Thanks,

Re: [videoblogging] iTunes 1-click subscribe

OK now the feeds play with sound in iTunes is still muted video in Column Preview and no my iTunes was not on mute. Nor was my system volume muted. So I must have been and still partially am in a bug.Thank you so much for the link to where the iTunes one click info is Peter. I'd seen the button around but not known the source of it's origin.Still experimenting with Panther 10.3.9 and QT 6.5 to see if my H.264 videos are useless. I am trying another download that looks like it is coming in fine, but heretofore has evaporated after completion. Anyone familiar with that phenomenon?Nope evaporated again. Is it because the absence of an H.264 element in QT 6.5 will cause the downloaded file to turn INVISIBLE? I could see it coming down and even see it grow in size at the file level inside my Podcast folder. Then upon completion POOF! Gone again.Am I populating my iTunes Podcast folder with a set of INVISIBLE H.264 downloads? Will they magically appear once I install QT 7.0.1?OK I get the picture. The vast majority of Mac and Windows users are too LAZY to download and install QT 7. Right? How cool is that? We have to acquiesce to the LAZY MASSES? Or has Verdi proven in his QT 7 review that H.264 is just a press release? I have been too busy to read it yet. Sorry Michael.Hey, turns out this is my first visit to . Man what an oversight. I'm full of oversights. In fact if it wasn't for you guys and gals, I would have oversighted myself. Took me a month to find this list from the time I started paying attention to the Vlogsphere.

Well, you gotta figure that a lot of people a) dont have computers  
that are fast enough b) aren't as obsessed with this shit as we are  
and dont really care c)dont have high speed to download it or d) its  
incombatible with their operating system.  and there is also the e)  
for a lot of people who paid for quicktime pro 6, it's not  
compatible, and they lose functionality.  So, I don't really think  
its laziness, its just a bit bleeding edge right nowYes, it looks  
great, but it takes a while for everyone to catch up

Not sure if anyone addressed this, as I am catching up on email, working my

I am surprised DailyDancer.com is still up and creating new content. This 
site finished #7 in the Contagious Media Showdown ( URL: 
http://showdown.contagiousmedia.org/ ). Entrants must create new content 
specifically for the contest, so it seems this stunt was thought up for a 
competition and has continued on based on popularity and perhaps ad 
clicks/DailyDancer.com gear sales.

He got 89,324 unique visitors and 132 Technorati links between 5/19/2005 and

It only lists the one video that I am linking to that I did not make with H.264, Marc Canter on ourmedia.org in Seattle last week, instead of all 5 (four H.264 by me).

Re: [videoblogging] Questions Regarding Sponsorships, Underwriting, Ads, and Rates, etc.

Blogging infrastructure built over time. We're standing on the
shoulders of giants. Let's not forget that. We're not any more or less
special because we have video in a blog. But, I do think there are
opportunities here to build tools and services that specifically
relate to media publishing/syndication that could eventually set this
apart somewhat from other forms of Blogging while still connecting to
the blogosphere as a whole. This is what we talk about often when we
refer to this as an ecology.

Not quite.

When QT Pro V7 comes out for windows.  I might, that's might, get it. 
As of now, i don't need it.  I watch H264 videos with VLC Player. 
Works fine.  I use iTunes to subscribe to Diggnation and CommandN

As for encoding, It's either mpeg4 or DivX for my high res stuff.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: When the video camera makes the reputation...

2005-08-14 Thread David Yirchott

Aside for a permit so as not to obstruct the normal flow of people, another 
thing to be careful of is that it is possible to trademark a building or 
landmark. For instance, in Chicago all of Millennium Park is trademarked. 
Therefore in order to professionally shoot there you need to pay a fee and 
get a permit, as well. Casual photographers are exempted from this, but if 
you show up with a tripod be prepared to grease a palm or hit the curb.

BoingBoing article: ( URL: 
http://www.boingboing.net/2005/02/07/please_add_photos_of.html )

Many famous and not-so-famous buildings have done this. Particularly newer 
structures -- even public art installations. I've heard that the Eiffel 
Tower is wierdly not trademarked during the day, but is at night.

Here's a link to find out more about photog rights in the US and UK. I've 
seen this guy mentioned in a couple places. I think he's an ACLU lawyer. ( 
URL: http://www.krages.com/phoright.htm )

Hmmm... the .pdf link doesn't seem to be working now. I'd suggest going back 
later or doing a Google search.

2005-08-14 Thread Beth Agnew

I think it's fair to an extent to turn up the heat a little on people's 
ideas and put their feet to the fire about what it is they are really 
doing. If they are passionate about their ideas, that heat is not going 
to deter them. Our devil's advocates shoot flames at these ideas to see 
how fast they'll incinerate. That's valuable for the idea creator 
because if the idea or the plan is solid, a little singeing is not going 
to hurt it. It will, I hope, burn away the dross so that the true gold 
of the idea is revealed. If criticism inspires someone to change their 
plan for the better, or make the idea more flame-proof, then that's to 
everyone's benefit. If they can't stand the heat and leave the kitchen, 
then that's a benefit too.

On this list, I have seen many messages exhorting people to do things 
for the right reasons, but NO messages that imply "you're not part of 
our in-crowd so get lost". To the contrary, it appears to be a welcoming 
group full of people willing to help others get up to speed in a medium 
we care about. Maybe the various communication styles are not always to 
everyone's liking, but that's a feature of our delightful diversity.

The challenges to our ideas or techniques that we receive in this group 
are nothing compared to what the wider world will have to say once we 
get out there. People who have no clue regarding the what, and how, and 
why of vlogging will feel completely qualified to broadcast biased and 
uninformed criticism on something they can never hope to understand.

I figure if I can get through the gauntlet of you lot, nobody else's 
voice is going to matter, and I'll have a product that is the stronger 
for it.

Thanks for this good info, Peter. I customized my Blogger template (in

the color, though, let's see if it grows on me. Thoughts, anyone?

I also created a swipeable Laugh Practice badge and I will be

[videoblogging] We create the tools, we have the needs

2005-08-14 Thread R. Kristiansen





Hey all, 

Here we are, 1100 or so of us. 

We create the tools. We have the needs. 

The companies that are trying to sell us stuff. They often don't
manage to listen to our expressions of need. Or our complaints about
existing tools.

I am frigging amazed by the fact that Apple isn't tuning in more to
us. Or conversing with us. It's like they frigging don't care. Yes, we
are a cult, yes, we are a marginal group of 1100 people. Apple or
Microsoft couldn't care less. But they could. They could realize how
important it is to have rss2 with enclosures IN your system if you
want to sell stuff to us. The importance of open systems. Open
standards.

We are the media - sounds like a joke, but it aint. It just aint. 

Have you seen this? http://www.videoletters.net/

Use the thinking of that site. Apply it to whatever context you can
think of. Almost.

We are 1100 people. A creative overflow, collaboration, progression.

We are connected. In all kinds of ways. 

Thank you.

Best, 

Raymond M. Kristiansen

Hi Raymond,
Apple Cares.  It even says it on their support plan, AppleCare. ;-)

I think I mentioned here that I recently spoke to someone from Apple on 
the phone about how I use Final Cut Pro to make videoblogs.  They are 
interested in hearing what we are doing and learning how they can make 
their products help us to make videoblogging easier.

They also talked with Michael Verdi at the SF Meet the Vloggers.

[videoblogging] help with enclosures?

2005-08-14 Thread Philip Clark





On Friday I got onto some high-speed Internet. I downloaded 800MB worth  
of video blogs and then someone walked into the room and flicked on a  
light and I saw the sign posted above my head. "Absolutely No  
Downloading you will be asked to leave." So I hastened to minimize the  
Safari downloads window with its shimmering blue status bars stacked up  
to the sky.

Firewired it all to my iBook, reset Safari and no one was the wiser.  
I'll be back.

One thing I did was check myself out on Mefeedia. Turns out it hadn't  
registered any of my videos for the last week. I guess there's  
something wrong with my feed, probably something simple but it's beyond  
me. I was hoping someone on the list could help sort me out.

The feed is here:


I found FeedValidator while searching around and this is what it had to  
say:


"Item contains more than one enclosure." But I like having an image  
link to the movie, I'm not sure what to do.

This is not a pleasant subject for me. The word "enclosure" reminds me  
of the word "closure" which reminds me of interviews with the victim's  
family following the execution.

Plain vanilla RSS only allows for one enclosure. If you want more than  
that (and you do) you have to use Yahoo's Media RSS Module. I can see that  
you have Media RSS enclosures for some of your files (some of the images).  
How are you creating enclosures? Are you doing anything in MT or are you  
relying 100% on Feedburner.

Shut down all extraneous programs, including email and all the little items

If that's not enough, use ctrl + alt + del to pull up the Task Manager and 
shut down more stuff.

Failing that, wonder what speed processor & how much RAM you got?

Yes, Mr. Kinberg, you're quite right: we stand on the shoulders / successes 
/ failures of not only the bloggers but the podcasters as well, which is why 
I scan the podcast list.

Does the blogosphere have this kind of metadiscussion buzzing in the 
background or does it all happen in the blogs?

[videoblogging] Movie Maker Crashes All The Time

2005-08-14 Thread Rick Short











Even after I shut everything down – still
the same thing.  Crash, crash, crash.

I’ll have to try something else.

Thanks.

I’ll try

I’ve got a fairly
new PC with good hardware, but I’ll look into that, too.

Shut
down all extraneous programs, including email and all the little items 
in the sys tray.

If that's not enough, use ctrl + alt + del to pull up the Task
Manager and 
shut down more stuff.

Failing that, wonder what speed processor &
how much RAM you got?

2005-08-14 Thread Chris Baudry




David,
 
As a follow up to what you say about sponsors, a very practical question: after identifying a list of potential sponsors that might be interested, how do you contact them? Do you contact their marketing dept. and what type of person are you trying to reach? Or communication agencies? Phone? Email?  Is there a directory of these marketing and communication people?

 
Thanks,
 
Christian

RadioMike,Congratulations on your new project. I wish you and your colleague all the best!
Below I will share my thoughts and knowledge, but this is still somewhat uncharted territory. I am not an expert and your mileage may vary:First, I agree with your assessment of securing an underwriter/sponsor. If 
you can get one, it often means more money than a typical advertising rate card will pay out and the opportunity to build a solid business relationship with a company that has similar interests and target audiences as your own.

>probably dig up statistics and audience numbers from my one-time podcast>that I had to put on hiatus due to the emergency of finding paid>employment in Austin.First and foremost, you should ask yourself, "What does the potential 
sponsor want?" That simple question will keep the rest of your work focused. Is it a local sponsor? National? What sort of demographics are they looking for? At this point, without a show-specific track record, you aren't selling 
a product, you're selling a concept. Which means a certain amount of forecasting is acceptable, but back it up with whatever data you can get. For instance, if there is a similar podcast, try to find out what numbers 
they get. Get general information about podcasters. I recently posted a link to a survey that showed people who read blogs tend to be younger and wealthier than typical web surfers. Find out what you can about podcast 
listeners.The numbers you have from your previous show are great, especially if this new show is similar. First of all, it is good that the numbers from your last show (July 6, 2005) are recent. But the next question is what kind of 
numbers do you have? Do they support the goals of the potential sponsor? If you can track the location of downloaders, are your numbers from local sources? Keep in mind that not all local users will appear to derive from a 
local source. AOL users, I believe, generally show up coming from Virginia. But if you have numbers from Malaysia and you have a local sponsor that may not be seen as a benefit.Find out if you can, your previous show's numbers of pageviews and unique 
users. Keep in mind that if you are delivering your podcast in a feed, people with podcatchers don't have to visit your site, which can, of course, decrease pageviews and unique user numbers. And will make any of the 
sponsor's banner ads and links on your site underperform.What I'd suggest: certainly mention the sponsor in the podcast, but try to drive traffic to the sponsor's site, your site, or both. Have something on 
your website a listener will not get from just the podcast: pictures, a blog, articles, links for more information, or a way to give feedback. Create a contest: have your sponsor donate his/her product and give it away 
on your website. Set up a contest entry form on your website and tell people about it on your show. That makes it easy and more acceptable to mention the sponsor, and it should drive traffic to your homepage.
Tell the sponsor What it is about your new podcast that is likely to increase your numbers over the previous one. Do your numbers show a loyal audience that will function as a foundation for your new show? Did your 
numbers indicate a steady audience growth? Will you have more advertising this time around? Will you be listed on iTunes (again, likely not a benefit for a local sponsor)?Also, you may not want to mention stopping your show to find emergency 
employment. I do not Know the details surrounding the situation, but a business wants to know that they are making an investment in a stable project. last thing you want is a potential sponsor wondering if -- after 
they invest in you -- you're going to go on another hiatus.>And also, how does one determine>an underwriting rate or fee for a new podcast or videoblog?This is virtually uncharted territory bacause it is a new distribution 
model. What impact do you suspect this sponsorship will have for you and for the sponsor. Sometimes it is worth losing money to be affiliated with a certain business. If that is not the case here, come up with a number that 
will give your sponsor the perception of value and you a reason to keep them around. Do Internet searches. Oftenthere is a lot of guidance than can be derived from Google searches.

Thanks for the reply. Some time ago I'd been curious about podcasting

If I use this plugin tag to exclude images, do you think it will make

[videoblogging] Re: Movie Maker Crashes All The Time

2005-08-14 Thread Gena

I feel your pain. I just got finished editing in WMM2 for the second
time tonight. I just about had that rascal finished. I was trying to
move an ending title into a fade. Son of a gun locked up, froze and
otherwise "not responding." 

All the things Jan said are true but I would also add that if you try
to give it too many changes or tweaks it will crash on ya. Or if you
try to go beyond capabilities of the program. It doesn't take much.

I try to remember to save every 5 minutes but I was so close to being
done with it. Owwch.

Josh Kinberg from this list wrote an improvement for that plugin a while  
ago. Hopefully he can give you the download link. His version only makes  
enclosures from links marked with rel="enclosure". That gives you a much  
more control.

Yep, probably. I can't say until you've tried it though. :o)

[videoblogging] faq on capturing/uploading video

2005-08-14 Thread Steven Livingstone











Hello all – great to be part of the community!

 

Q. Does anyone know of a single source (or multiple sources)
that have video/audio/pictorial idiot guides (of which I am a proud member) for
people getting from their hardware starting point to the point where they can
now upload the video.

 

So if I have mobile phone model XYZ, this is what I do to
capture video, then I need do to this to actually get it on the web (from
emailing it, or upload from the phone or buy some hardware that helps me
transfer it to my pc which I need to save as a specific format and then upload
and so on…).

 

I only ask as I’ve been asked by more than one person
about how to do this and I also had a bit of an issue when my first mobile
required that I purchase some further hardware in order to transfer my pictures.

 

It would be ideal is there was an extensive (probably Wiki
based) FAQ for videoblogging that covered as many models (phones, pda’s,
pc’s and so on).

 

regards,

Steven :: Release 2.0 :: http://stevenR2.com
