[videoblogging] Vertical video rotation in iMovie

[videoblogging] Re: Anyone try the Elgato Turbo 264?
Aha perfect, this follows on very nicely from the discussion I was having with Drew here yesterday. Cool, someone finally took an encoder chip and offered it in a format that works with movies already on our Mac. This is excellent news, and the price doesnt seem too bad. I havent found a proper review yet, but looking at the spec it certainly will seed up your h264 encoding, just so long as you are only encoding to the resolutions profiles this device supports. I hope it is more flexible than the spec suggests, as it seems to have fairly fixed ideas about what resolutions and h264 types it supports, to match the ipod and apple tv it seems. So it may not be suitable for veryone, but should satisfy the majority. Quite how much faster it is than just doing it with software, will depend on the speed of your computer - in a few years cpus may deliver faster results than this usb stick can, but for most machines I would think the performance gain will be worth it. I'll get one as soon as I can, and report back more information. Certainly based on the price spec Id say it use a less powerful encoder than the one Drew mntioned yesterday, so Im expecting it wont deliver great results (or maybe any results) with full HD res stuff, but again thats not an issue for most people at the moment. The other issue is whether there is any difference in the quality of footage it delivers - only personal testing or a recent review will reveal this to us.

[videoblogging] Re: Anyone try the Elgato Turbo 264?
There seems to be quite a good discussion about it here, some of the comments contain a lot of info: http://www.tuaw.com/2007/05/16/elgato-turbo-264-new-shipping/ Sounds like it will be a good use of money espeially for people with G4 or G5 where encoding h264 can be insanely painful. Things arent quite so bad with the intel macs, but that device should still make a difference so I'll get one. Interested to note that one of the rumours in the comments is that Apple have GPU-assisted encoding built into leopard. So that will use some of the graphics card processing power to decode/encode, making it similar to the Elgate turbo.264 in terms of what it achieves, and similar to some of the Windows graphics card history I was waffling about yesterday. Wont be much good for people with the cheaper macs that have non-powerful graphics chips in though.

But they are in streaming format so not easy to grab and use in your own work. We need several volunteers to help us download the videos. We have scripts to automate the process, but need available machines that are online 24 hours a day. You should be fairly geeky because youll need to install MPlayer. we have the instructions etc. we have 2 volunteers already...a couple more and we'll grab all the videos quickly. the goal here is to provide videobloggers with source material to use in their own work. it'll all be searchable.

[videoblogging] Living with server downtime...
How much downtime is acceptable? This might be a silly question because the obvious answer is none but it seems the real word seems to offer something different. My site is hosted on Bluehost. And maybe for a couple of issues, they have been very reliable and I have been quite satisfied. But every so often, I am working on something and my site is down because of various reasons: CPU Bandwidth issues, internal error and blah blah. I think one of my wordpress plugins, Wordtube, which I love dearly and use extensively is the culprit (my media files are hosted on blip). Speaking to the tech support peeps, they point to several plugins as the reasons for outtages. But I love and need my plugins. And I have to say that for the most part, I install plugins that I really need. Are any of you wordpress users (who host their own blogs) facing these issues? If you do, do you find your site down from time to time? if so, how long? What are your secrets to keeping an healthy site? What are the big sites doing in terms of the backend and all that? And more importantly... When will videoblogging not suck time from my day? When will I stop having to deal with php or mysql code crap? When will I stop feeling like a dumbass for hosting my own site? Ajit http://squigglebooth.com/

I hope this is the proper place to introduce myself.. if not, please just ignore me as I stagger around blindly bumping into your furniture. -- I started a small media firm about five years ago and this past year my business partner/friend and I decided to jettison our clients in favor of lower paying, more personally gratifying, creative work. My main project is akrobotics.com where our short films are hosted and the side car is jumpsociety.com, a film club for local filmmakers. At this point we're just trying to develop our skills and find a niche on the internet while building up our local film community. Most of our films are under a Creative Commons license and we've been posting our work to YouTube (http://youtube.com/AlaskaRobotics) and have a Democracy feed... or is that Miro? I'm not so much a fan of the new name. I've also been teaching a class at the Yaakoosge Alternative High School on digital video and have been encouraging the students to create video journals using YouTube heavily as a teaching and publishing tool. The students have been responding to You Choose political candidates, making recycling PSAs and are currently working to finish up some short documentaries. The goal of the class is to show them how digital video and technology can be used as a medium to express themselves. http://www.youtube.com/group/yaakoosge Aside from making short films I like to play soccer, read comics, draw, listen to music, eat, sleep, and hunt for adventure. All my best, Pat Race
[videoblogging] Re: Vlogging an event
Thanks, that's great and in line with what I was already thinking. I did not plan to capture full sessions, as I wonder if many people will every access them (ofcourse it depend on your type of meeting and presentations). I guess if you do interviews you force people to compress content- making it more interesting for others to engage with. Great examples!

I'm wondering whether you would have any tips or cool ideas, as this is the first time I'll be doing this (we have a team of 4-5 people who will help in the process). We do want to combine it with normal blogposts and photostreams. you could simply set up a camera and record each session. Then you can compress and upload each session to a blog. you can see how we did it at Vloggercon 2006: http://www.vloggercon.com/?page_id=208 (it can be made much prettier these days) you can also get a group to go around and do little interviews with people at the conference. here's an example we did last year at a conference in Santa Barbara: http://sbforum.blogspot.com/ The biggest challenge is the workflow. usually...people record a lot of video...and then no one wants to deal with it. the tapes just sit on someone's desk for months. So i suggest that the work be distributed. assign each person with one session that they will record and upload. or assign each person to record and upload 5 short hallway interviews. in this way...it'll get done.

Hi, Pat. I think you have a unique advantage in that you live in a place most people know very little about. I think you could make some amazing videos about Alaskan culture, life, nature, etc. On 5/22/07, akrobotics [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm a filmmaker from Juneau, Alaska and heard about this group through Jay and Irina.

If you want to document the actual event, then record each session. this is valuable as an archive for the future...or for members that cant attend. if you want to give a feel for the people who make up your community...then I like the short interviews with different people in hallways. helps humanize whatever it is you guys are doing. andrew posted a good example of documenting an event yesterday: http://rocketboom.com/maker_faire/ Jay -- Here I am http://jaydedman.com Check out the latest project: http://pixelodeonfest.com/ Webvideo festival this June

Ryanne and I just posted a video here: http://ryanishungry.com/2007/05/22/keith-thompson-totally-off-the-grid/ It's about this guy who lives in the NM desert, totally off-the-grid. Technically its not flashy. Took about an hour to shoot. for whatever reason...i am real proud of how Keith told his story...and how he showed off the life he's building.

I admit it. I am a female person. And I am speaking as a female person. That area is Class B skeezy. (Loosely translated as I don't like it in the daytime and I wouldn't step foot in it at night.) The only time I am on that street is if I am coming out of the Red Line train station waiting for my connection bus home. I wouldn't walk two blocks north or south after dark. I'm not saying there aren't advantages. It is near the train station you could get up to Hollywood and Highland to meet folks. There are clean places to grab food across the street but I wouldn't leave anything of value in that place. Especially me. I'm sure we could hook you up with a roommate or find better more affordable lodging in a nearby city. Email me off list with your budget and I'll find a deal or better accommodations.

Just shot some hella fun footage of Bay to Breakers (runners! nudity! costumes! dancing! alcoholism!) and I'm dreading the thought of having to edit it all with Quicktime Pro or, even worse, Windows Movie Maker.

Two words Jackson 1). VirtualDub - http://www.virtualdub.org/ 2). TMPGEnc - http://www.tmpgenc.net/ VirtualDub is an editor that allows you to actually see everything frame by frame, much like Cool Edit or Audacity does with audio. VirtualDub allows you to export your video as an AVI (Yes, you can use any codec installed on your system) TMPGEnc is a program that you can use to correct sync issues. TMPGEnc only exports in MPEG-1 however. To convert into the Quicktime format, your best bet would be to go MP4 as opposed to the MOV route and (Obviously) use Quicktime Pro. But short of that however, you can Google for MP4 converters or download one from CNET or Tucows. There are scores of them out there for Windows. Some are freeware. Some are trialware. It just depends on what you're looking for. :) I have several MP4 converters myself. The best one I've found (Short of getting Quicktime Pro mind you) is the Jodix Free iPod Video Converter.

Re: [videoblogging] Political Video
Hi everyone: One question Jay Why go all the back to 2000? Why not just go back to the beginning of the War on Terrorism? THAT is where Bush has REALLY messed up this country.

But they are in streaming format so not easy to grab and use in your own work. We need several volunteers to help us download the videos.

[videoblogging] Re: Where are you staying for Pixelodeon
I was considering staying there as well but after reading what Gena just wrote, well, hmm. Maybe not. Sorry. I know it's L.A. and this is my Midwest thinking here but $160 a night for a dive of a hotel is just too much to pay. I still have my airline ticket for now. Dont have a room booked yet. Cant afford paying $400+ for 2 days in a hotel room. Getting bummed that chances are where I will be staying will be too far away to make associating (the real reason I am going) with other vloggers feasible.

My videoblog Blandlands, the most boring videoblog ever created, is now taking submissions though I hate using the terms accepting videos and taking submissions.

So there, I now have this technononological html thing that transforms blanks into email and it's very official! So send me something if you are inspired by outlet malls, traffic islands, and little people in the big world. Think of it as sending me a crummy postcard. Main page for inspiration and guidance http://blandlands.com Submission page http://blandlands.com/your_blandlands.htm I guarantee tens of people will watch and be bored to death by your video.
