Re: [videoblogging] Re: Money Changers, out! (was: reality check?)

2005-07-16 Thread robert a/k/a r




Heh. The for-profit media are about selling advertising and the 
*nature* (cough cough, bias) of each media company is ruled by the 
ownership. If someone wants to judge them and call for-profit media 
evil, well, that's a judgement call. If for-profit media senses an 
earning threat, as most anyone would, they will seek to either crush or 
embrace the threat. In this case I'm hearing a some say they don't want 
to be embraced. Fair enough. Getting sucked in politics of a for-profit 
media may not be your thing (I will not argue). Or maybe it's a 
market-driven hesitation, perhaps the price they are offering doesn't 
clear you reckon of value, which is fine too (reminds me of old joke re 
guy at cocktail party enquiring re...).

I love the tools peeps are creating here and hope they are the 
instruments of choice as citizen journalism accelerates. I'd like to 
see peeps here rewarded for their efforts in the manner each individual 
desires. I love the donations system for helping altruistic toolmakers 
along tho I'm not sure sleep loss is recoverable via donations. I'd 
like to see donation buttons on more tool dev sites. And I love the 
spirit here in the group, that's the strongest currency. And I like the 
fact that Josh Wolf, as a content creator, is able to get media 
companies to honour his copyright by paying up, that's great. And I 
like it that a significant Rocketboom patron had appeared- go Andrew 
go. I'd like to see more money come in to support what the group does 
for those who want to supplement their income. I'd not like to see 
peeps here, or anywhere, get crushed by corporations cloning/stealing 
their work.

What I think I'm saying is at the end of the day is methinks vlogging 
is showing signs that it's reaching (reached?) critical mass thanks to 
you guys and no matter what for-profit media does you don't compete 
with them. There is no doubt in my mind that there will be people 
vlogging on behalf of for-profit media, purchase by for-profit media. 
It's not a big deal, nothing to worry about. And no doubt, there will 
be peeps purchasing services from for-profit companies that are not as 
good as what was invented here. Again, it's bound to happen. It's the 
nature of invention and development. Popularity of an any individual 
component of the vlog ecosystem or lack thereof has little to do with 
the reason for advancing vlogging. And measuring success in dollars at 
this early stage means little as well, I don't believe there is big 
bucks in this right now or any time soon, though projects like 
Rocketboom may prove me wrong.

Let's not get hung up about raking in big $$$, there's more at stake 
here than money. The donations model is probably appropriate for now. 
Maybe later too, perhaps that's the right way to support toolmakers and 
artists. And I'd be happy to be incorrect re my low probability of 
revenues forecast for the near term, in fact I'd be ecstatic to see 
JoshK or Ro or Peter or MattS (I'm not going to name everyone but you 
get what I'm saying) pull a rabbit out of his hat. My mind races with 
the possibilities of where vlogging can go, let's not worry about big 
money and Apple. And one closing thought, let's hesitate before 
discouraging individuals and vendors (i.e., foad) from participating in 
the conversation. In my short tenure here I've learned from some of 
those who have been on the receiving end of certain discouragement even 
though I appreciate the resistance here to 'tude.

peace

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Money Changers, out! (was: reality check?)

2005-07-17 Thread robert a/k/a r




Heh. Yesterday when I suggested I'd like to see more donation buttons I 
failed miserably in differentiating between toolmakers and content  
makers. Sorry about that, been running on  insufficient sleep.

In the case of toolmakers, to me it's an easy call, you transfer a 
reasonable amount into their account once (or twice) a year. I think of 
it as a proxy for a license plus a bonus for being altruistic. I give 
fireant, within a sd or so, the same as I give others, then it's 
out-of-sight-out-of-mind for six months to a year. I don't pay 
attention to the donation button, it's invisible to me.

Regarding content makers, my perception re financial contribution is 
different. I personally respond badly to the ppv model, it's like 
selling kisses. Argggh. I do think content makers should receive 
contributions, and personally my preferred method would be the same as 
for toolmakers.

I would be turned off seeing link saying pay-me every time I view a 
piece of content in an aggregator, it's the wrong kind of message.

Clearly it's all perception and none of this matters. I think the 
rel="payment" implementation is good but is still not fully developed. 
Again, let's get some bucks to content makers, a purchase decision that 
is clearly more difficult than the one for toolmakers. I'm not against 
the busking model however I think it puts vlogging in a light different 
from the one I imagine.

Again, nice going re the rel="payment" technology, let's figure out how 
to make it more social.

thanks, dunno how many megs. made simplifying assumption re 3gp using 
average (is 3gp different bit rates?).

am asking question to understand feasibility of an idea lurking in the 
dark recesses of my mind.

so you're guessing the transfer time equals the runtime?

Greetings videobloggers,

For the last seven (almost eight now!) months, I've been developing a desktop media aggregator (aka videoblog downloader/player). I'm happy to announce that the first public beta of I/ON is out, and its available for MacOS X and Windows XP, as a free download here: http://openvision.tv. You don't even have to give us your email address to get it!

I/ON is also the reason that the last entry to my own personal videoblog was over two months ago (argh!). In light of that, I have just posted a new video where I discuss I/ON with my collaborator, Jon Oakes. You can watch that here, if you'd like: http://openvision.tv/itcamefrombrooklyn

As I said before, I/ON is available for free, and its also licensed under the GNU Public License, which means its open-source. I really wouldn't have been able to accomplish this work without the benefit of open-source, so we figured why not give something back?

A quick set of I/ON features for you, while you're considering whether or not its worth your time to download:
• 	Subscribe to RSS 2.0 Feeds with Enclosures (of course) and MediaRSS (Preview thumbnails, yay!)
• 	Integrated playback of Quicktime, MPEG/MP3/MP4, Windows Media*, and Flash* (*windows only for now)
• 	Fast local searching, filtering of retrieved items
• 	Integrated searching and saving of clips from: Mefeedia, Yahoo Video, Blogdigger, and the Internet Archive (Archive.org)
• 	Bit Torrent Support (Works with Commonbits.org, any BlogTorrent/BroadcastMachine/DTV site, Prodigem, etc)
• 	A friendly, fun, easy-to-use interface! (we hope)
• 	Multiple ways to mark, forward, and share favorite videos with friends
If you've got a few minutes to spare, please try it out, as we would love to get your feedback, and maybe even gain a new loyal user. This is our first beta, so expect some bugs and missing features! Any feedback can be sent directly to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED], or you can just reply to this message. I'm also often on skype at 'nathanialfreitas'. We don't have a proper bug forum or report form at this point.

As an aside for developer geeks, the whole app is written in Java, developed in Eclipse, and utilizes the amazing Quicktime for Java API. On Windows, we also use JNI to access Windows Media Player and Flash controls. I/ON also includes the pluggable Java Media Framework, which allows us to (eventually) run on Linux while also supporting things like OGG VORBIS and FFMPEG plugins. Source will be released very soon either through Jave.net or Sourceforge (as soon as I get my act together).We hope users and developers alike will benefit from the work we've done. There are so many ways that I/ON could be used, specifically other than just on a desktop, so we're excited to see what happens.

I look forward to hearing from all or any your questions, concerns, or feedback- I'm all ears (and eyes, too, of course).

Best regards,

2) adverts on vlog entry (google ads in sidebar)
3) reputation enhancement (pro gigs resulting from visibility)

6) hosting for fee (or sharing revenues from ppv)
7) build it and wait for a takeout
8) lecture circuit / books (relates to #3)

Re: [videoblogging] Disclosures, disclosures

2005-08-08 Thread robert a/k/a r




fwiw, i joined the group solely because vlogging captivated my 
attention. i had the good fortune to cross paths with JoshK and AndrewB 
and learned more about vlogging pretty quickly, later decided to pay 
more attention to this group. showed up at vloggercon, liked what i 
saw, interest continues. simple story. and i'm here because i'm into cj 
and the lighter/fun aspects of vlogging, not because i think i can make 
advertising dollars. )btw, i'd like to see money made from vlogging and 
interested in business models)

one project in the works is a filmic experiment. things vloggy play a 
role in the film, more on that later. regarding other projects, none 
are specifically in the vlog space. might that change, of course, a few 
ideas are always percolating. and isn't that what groups like this 
desire?

and hey, of course individuals have stakes in their own projects and 
may experience paranoia at times, it's somewhat knee-jerk to feel that 
way. i would suggest avoiding paranoid reaction. ultimately progress 
magically happens if these original/early thinkers can avoid defensive 
disruption the beautiful magic. of course *the competitition* is 
watching, if there's a secret you don't want *them* to know don't shout 
it in public, and at the same time don't discourage sharing of ideas, 
pie-in-the-sky or otherwise, you never know what fuel will propel cj to 
the next level. be original, do something others are not, and share it, 
move the group forward.

just my usd 0.02 worth.

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

2005-08-11 Thread robert a/k/a r




The Mayor's Film Office here is pretty easy (ymmv so I've heard but not  
our experience) to work with, you fill in the forms (download, filling  
in takes 5 minutes), send someone up there with forms and they review  
them (can take from an hour to three), they may ask a few questions (of  
the person delivering the forms or they telephone you) as the forms  
seem never quite clear enough, and they issue a permit for specific  
locations for a specific term. No fees, but you must have the proper  
insurance in place since you are making a rep when you fill in the  
forms. Further, if you want to film in a park, after you receive your  
permit you must contact the the parks department person responsible for  
that park (it appears each has a few parks, is regional). It's not a  
big deal, get the permit. And people here are very friendly here and  
we've found it easy to chat with folks on camera. One more thought,  
when filming peeps the usual release concerns apply, and regarding  
audio you might want to avoid issues if a nearby boombox is pumping out  
copyrighted tunes.

Re: [videoblogging] link to Amsterdam invitation

any think it would be clearer if there was a "you are cordially  
invited" type invitation on the main page above the links to the blog  
and wiki?

imho, the page works great for those who follow this list religiously  
however for those who we invite or ask to publicise to their readers  
there is no *simple* read-it-in-five-seconds-and-get-it invitation.  
reason i think this is first hand experience.

Heh. If you have a name that begins with a numeric (i.e., 29 fragile 
days or 24x7), some of the directories don't have links.

For example, mefeedia put links for A through Z but no 0-9. Go figure.

Guess we'll have to wait until someone figures out we exist and creates 
a more accurate directory, until then...

[videoblogging] open vs closed, attention, trust

2005-11-27 Thread robert a/k/a r
Hi all

Feel like getting your brain wrapped around something more satisfying 
perhaps than how to conform to Apple's scheme for adding your content 
to an iPod?

I stripped out the audio track from video we shot with Brad Templeton 
and Jerry Michalski, it's posted as an audio podcast (if you subscribe 
to my "everything" feed you it will have showed up this morning in your 
reader along with my vlogs) here:



The conversation, imho, is def interesting, they cover some of the 
issues we debate on this list and elsewhere such as DRM, attention and 
trust. Yeah, it's not a vlog entry but it's relevant so please don't 
shoot me, I was considering posting the video too but I think it works 
with just the audio.

Perhaps download the podcast for your commute and come away with a 
fresh thought for a vlog post. I'm realising my taste buds these days 
are in search of vlogs that address societal issues, though I still 
enjoy little concept pieces like the "Is this a dream" clip ER posted 
earlier today and some of the personal ones (i.e., today's pick is 
Ryanne's mom's first vlog).

Enjoy.  It was a really fun and educational shoot down in Palo Alto 
with the two of them. Come and comment if you agree or disagree with 
what they say, I'm curious re what you think.

Hey Erik

Tinymike was recommended to me by someone who I quite respect (he has 
filmed in Iraq, you've probably seen/heard his work). I would trust 
this fellow's advice, he's pretty savvy. I didn't purchase it for the 
rig I use (I have XLR inputs and went with Senn shotgun), however I 
would have if my cam was the mini plug variety.

Re: [videoblogging] making directories

2005-12-05 Thread robert a/k/a r
Perhaps my read is too simplistic, I interpret the "personal" and 
"show" types as the same. It's identity. Public sphere invokes 
identity. Social intercourse is, well, social intercourse and that's 
all that matters. Fsck style. Fsck rank. Fsck enclosures. Just do it. 
Blog, vlog, sing and dance, stick you head out the window and yell, 
express yourself and let the conversation flourish. IMHO it's 
preferable to discount style when listening to arguments, strip it away 
and get to the meat of the matter. Perhaps someone could write a mental 
greasemonkey script so we can all hoover up information on our own 
terms, so we can see it how we best like.

I'm not trying to defend their TOS. And IANAL , I'm only looking to see

I've tried out Vimeo and Blip without reading their TOS first, was

I think everyone does that to cover their butts, but IANAL so you would

Again, have no involvement with their company, only looking to see if

Cheap hotel run USD 150, sometimes you can find a USD125 accommodation 
if you look hard. First check the usual places (i.e., travelocity and 
expedia), if I have time I'll dig up a few budget-oriented places and

If you want to economise, there are buses. I don't know the exact 
figure but it's relatively inexpensive. Lots of folks travel to/from 
the int'l airports (JFK and EWR) on the cheap and survive it.

The first three hotels listed (Wellington, Park Central, Metro) are all

Matt, yeah, health is of course of paramount importance.

What NYC hotels should we avoid, sounds like you have had a bad  
experience in NYC.

Let's make visits as safe/comfortable as possible for out-of-town  
visitors, eh, please share with us your bad-hotel list.

[videoblogging] Fair Use

2005-12-08 Thread robert a/k/a r
I noticed a post on Lessig's blog,



he mentions a report re “fair use” from The Center For Social Media.



Their statement of best practices in fair use (.pdf) looks like it's  
intended to make clear what documentary filmmakers currently regard as  
reasonable application of the copyright fair use doctrine.



IMO, It's definitely worth a read.

Yes, it does. The video isn't the blog entry. Inbound links, outbound
link, comments and so on all make up the blog entry. The blog entry is a 
network object. What you get on the Tivo is just the video. Same thing if
you print out a blog entry and put it in a newspaper. You wouldn't have a
blog entry anymore, you'd have an opinion article (or an article or 
whatever).

> what it really is is a VODCAST, yo!

Yes, not the same thing as a videoblog. :o)

i would not choose to make a religious war out of a set of ideas 
(generally, participatory media) that is evolving, methinks it more 
productive for the future of pm to not promulgate exclusionary 
definitions at this juncture. but, horses for courses.

if anything, let's grow a tree out of it, OPML-ise if you will, and 
arrange vodcast, videoblog, and the rest into a structure that handles 
the uni and bi directional aspects without getting into pissing 
contests every other week.

that do-able (the tree part that is)?

one more thing:  CONGRATS ROCKETBOOMERS!  and thanks for the great

[videoblogging] can you figure this out?

2005-12-11 Thread robert a/k/a r
Hi all

Just posted a video and curious how many peeps can, within the first 
let's say 10 or 15 seconds, figure out who is speaking on screen.

If you are a music and pop culture guru you prolly have it in the three 
seconds, else it might take a little longer.

No cheating. Don't check my blog first. Here's the link to the video:




Please post the number of seconds it took you to figure it out in the 
blog post comments, even if it took you longer than 10 seconds :)

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Fwd: The Indie TV Movement is Here

2005-12-12 Thread robert a/k/a r
Someone with a geeky predisposition might write a skype plugin so that 
one could assigns a skype-in number to their (wordpress) vlog and with 
a wordpress plugin the audio comments could go directly into the post. 
I guess you would need to indicate a suffix (i.e., and extension) that 
would associate the vlog post with the audio message.

BTW on a different matter, anyone else finding YAHOO mail posts to this 
board slower/worse than ever then past few days, it's completely 
dropped one I sent earlier this afternoon.

Re: [videoblogging] What camera should I ask Santa for?

2005-12-12 Thread robert a/k/a r
I've found portability to be key.

Whilst I heart my Sony PD150 and the amazing quality, I find I prefer 
to have a camera I can keep in my pocket or backpack all the time. This 
cam takes up too much room in my pack, though if it's a planned shoot I 
don't mind this particularly since it has powered XLR inputs so you can 
easily grab a pair of lavs or shotguns and have great audio too. I 
can't say enough great things about this cam other.

I'm experimenting now with the Canon S80, which has a higher resolution 
video setting than most still cams; my recent post of the cube was shot 
with that camera (though I compressed the heck out of it to put it on 
the interweb but it still looks pretty darn good).

Re: [videoblogging] Re: What camera should I ask Santa for?

2005-12-12 Thread robert a/k/a r
thanks!

recorded at 1024 x 768. reduced the image size to what you see via the 
link, which was compressed using apple compressor - h.264 and i ran the 
audio through a very modest high pass to loose the bottom of the street 
rumble.

with less aggressive vid compression it's, as one would expect, better. 
what i'm keen on is that this (S80) is a small-ish stills cam shooting 
such video. of course you shouldn't expect a camera like this to take 
professional quality stills, which it doesn't (canon have even 
abandoned raw output in this model, geez). but it does take a decent 
pic, which is all i am really after in a cam this size.

i can put the original capture on my server if you all are interested 
in downloading it to see how it looks full screen (it's awesome!) or 
experiment with it. let me know.

Hi Kitka. Welcome, love your work.

Regarding your comments, below, you seriously saying "real" 
videobloggers are good (whatever real is) and the others are bad, 
surely you don't really mean what you say do you?

Are you saying the more work you do the more real you are?

And once you define this realness, this good and evil (sit Chris, sit), 
are you seriously proposing you and others should start cleansing 
directories of the evil ones?

Shouldn't we welcome diversity?

yourself kerfuffled over, I was pointing out that there's room for

If you now think it's ok to have such videos in directories, reverse 
you position. If not, then stay your ground and stick to your quote. 
Bottom line, I think it's cool to change your mind, we all do sometimes 
as we learn, and on this board I think many of us are on here to learn 
and discover.

One more thing, if you hear anyone argue on this board, rest assured 
the intent is salutary.

So again, welcome to the group, and I look forward to more of your

[videoblogging] Creative Commons, 10 day window

Hey all (apologies in advance for the crosspost)


A lot of us release works under Creative Commons licenses, which is a 
cool thing.

Alert: An UNCOOL sword is dangling a bit close however, the IRS demands 
proof of public support for CC.

Bottom line, CC has a very short window to prove "public support" to 
the IRS, Lessig (and all of us who release under CC) request support, 
please click a few bucks over to CC NOW.

If you read nothing else today, read Lessig's message, then make a 
contribution:




***And if you are a business (i.e., aggregator, video hosting, etc.) 
benefiting from those who release under CC licenses, please forward 
this message to your CEO and make him/her aware, the deadline is 10 
days!

Markus, in my post there was no suggestion that we form a committee of 
joint vlogger fund, perhaps you misunderstood.

Of course there is always allocation of scarce resources questions, I 
assumed it a given since we are all grown ups on here and already know 
that.

The sole purpose of the post was to alert any on the list who might not 
be aware of the CC situation and individually care to support it.

Further, if you are directing your parenthetical remark re "pressing 
the paypal button towards me", I not only contribute to the media 
makers on this list and elsewhere I have also dropped a few bucks 
towards the tool makers.

Lastly, if Lessig says he is worried about the future of CC if the NFP 
status is cancelled, I'm willing to give his word the benefit of the 
doubt.

Earlier Pat Cook posted re a site http://www.vidilife.com/ where they talk about divx being the missing ingredient if the videos on their site don't play.

What's the deal, why is divx such a pain to use and why can't all of this be made easier for the average user.

Why does it have to be so difficult, is it the vidilife peeps or the browser peeps making life complicated? i think I have the darn stuff downloaded and it's not working. Or is it a MS issue?

I've got to believe there is an easier way to make video work for the masses. Is there something we all can do to make it easier, short of downloading a client that also downloads the divx bits?

This is not urgent by any means, however I think it's important for the long haul. When you have a minute I'd like to hear your thoughts when you're back in the office. It's 2006 and we're still making users fuss too much, IMO.

Sounds very cool.

We just started puting up videos on http://labs.divx.com. The intro is
the only one live, but we have day one footage on the way.

One bit is with Creative about the zencast. I am hoping to get
together with josh so we can get fireant on the site too.

I'll see if I see doug around tomorrow. We will probably be in
automobiles in the morning and then play it by ear in the afternoon.
back to the cave around 4 to edit up pieces.

What does everyone want to see? We can probably split up tasks among
everyone here with cameras on the floor.

Cheers,

p.s. this morning we were all handheld, this afternoon with the
tripod. It is funny how much respect a tripod gets you.

He's back on the main floor carying around a cool little product that
RCA is going to market:  its a video camera about the size of a 
digitial camera -  It takes about 30-45min of video, saves AVI, and
has USB output.  He said it will sell from between 130-150 dollars
most likely.

I believe this is made by the same people that made the CVS-sold
version that didnt have a usb out.

If anyone wants to check it out, look for him :-)  He's carying a
small vid camera ... surely that would narrow it down? :-)  You should
also be able to send him a message to his phone via: phone @

Re: [videoblogging] Thinking outside the box...

2006-01-06 Thread robert a/k/a r
You know how when you wake up in the morning and as you're opening your 
eyes you do that long stretch you feel down deep from your shoulders to 
your calves, and you feel s good.

Well, that feeling is the same one I get when making video. Anything 
else is just more gravy. If there is additional comp then that's cool, 
but the really good feeling comes from making a piece.

Po: When you wake up tomorrow morning and do the stretch decide for 
yourself if it feels good because of what you made yesterday or because 
you got paid. Revenue doesn't have to be expressed in dollars, though 
when it is it's because your audience is collaborating with you 
remotely, it's a proxy for their in-person applause.

Just an opinion from a guy who likes moving images, do what you want 
with it.

BTW, I'm all for figuring out how to get dollars into the hands of 
vloggers and have a few ideas how to do so, but I don't think it's the 
dollars that motivate us to create. Am I wrong?

Josh, from a risk management perspective is there any reason to think 
Apple may in future harden their m4v scheme at some point making it a 
requirement to have mv4 extension to sync to ipod, making a nightmare 
scenario for peeps with renamed m4v > mp4 assets on servers and links

That's awesome, Markus. I love the camerawork, the shots of the Sun prog from above, the photography (and edit) really tells a good story in this one. 

While on the subject of images analysis, I discovered an interesting site (via esorabbit) which I gave brief mention on my blog:

[videoblogging] Brightcove interview

2006-01-09 Thread robert a/k/a r
Hi all

Just saw an another interview with Jeremy Allaire go up, this time on itvt's site. It appears Brightcove's focus is big media, but maybe they will come around later and support us vloggers and small producers too. 

In the interview Allaire also mentions their flash scheme (see quote, below) and also re their DRM, I've linked the full interview on vlognews:

http://24x7.com/vlognews


Allaire: ...We're currently offering free Flash 8 video encoders using On2's Flix Pro encoding software, so if you have video you can launch it immediately. All you need are your video assets themselves, and whatever graphics you want to brand them with.

[itvt]: So the service delivers video in the Flash format…

Allaire: Yes. During the commercial preview stage, all of the video is being delivered in the Flash video format. As I just mentioned, we're offering a free version of the On2 Flix Pro video encoder, so if you have video in QuickTime or .avi, DV, MPEG or whatever, you can encode it into the Flash 7 or 8 format. We're running this commercial preview over the coming months, and in the near future we will start to make available a range of avenues for publishers to generate revenue from their broadband channels. You'll have the option of delivering advertising in your content, charging users to watch or download your content, or syndicating the content to other Web properties.

i'm wondering if that's not standard language for such hosting sites. i'll bet if you look at the others you'll find their lawyers included the same language. i see it elsewhere.

what harm would such language cause the user of such a hosting service?

btw, IANAL but wouldn't those bits in your agreement to enable you to sell your site or merge it into a new entity without breaching you agreement with your users?
