[videoblogging] Re: Video card needed for HD FCP or iMovie
Don't think replacing your video display card is going to affect your ability to capture video from your camera. The ATI display card handles playback display only. Unless you have something like an AJA or BlackMagic you wont need a hardware dependent codec. The hard drives should not have anything to do with this either. The Leopard issue I'm not sure about as I am resisting the upgrade for a while. The Sony should capture basic HDV if I'm not mistaken so FCP should be able to capture this. I would reinstall FCP to try and reinstall the missing codecs. Could be a dodgy firewire cable too. Basically start with the easy/free things first. Dont go spending for a new video card if this is not the issue. good luck adam Adam Mercado http://djelectricdaddy.blogspot.com http://djelectricdaddy.tumblr.com http://influxxmedia.blogspot.com http://influxx.tumblr.com http://www.flickr.com/photos/gaige_sebastien
Re: [videoblogging] Tokyo Video People 2008 - a great event
Thanks for reporting on this, Schlomo. The thing I love about these events is how the activities all cross-pollinate, there's elements of past events in Vlog People and some new elements (workflow discussions) that we'll definitely use for Vlog Europe. So here's my questions for you or anyone else in Japan who feels they can answer: What, above all else, do you think motivates people to vlog in Japan? Are there cultural barriers that the Japanese have to get over in order to blog? Were most of the attendees from Tokyo, or were many regions of Japan represented? Beyond the most excellent and affable Tajee, do you see any individuals or groups coming forward to bring existing videobloggers together and teaching people how to videoblog? On 28/01/2008, schlomo rabinowitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey all I just finished being a part of the first videoblogging conference/meetup here in Tokyo, Japan-- what an amazing group of videobloggers here!! What was good about it is that the first day consisted of talks around how to easily videoblog (not just youtube, but a variety of services), as well as some of the more popular Japanese videobloggers talked about their workflow. Some work in groups, others work solo. Some are richly edited pieces, others are talking heads... just like the rest of us. A couple of the presenters: Megwin, one of the most popular vloggers here, does so well that MTV Japan signed him up to do one video a day for 365 days. What I love about his stuff is that his comedy transcends language so non-japanese folks can understand him. Check him out: http://megwin.com Another is Tokyo Drift, which is a group travelouge type site. They all work remotely and use Senduit to exchange files and rough edits, then use a private youtube account to show the final edit so they can all approve it, then it goes live. They came to SF for MacWorld; I wish I knew that so I could have shown them SF as they have shown me Tokyo. They are here: http://tokyodrift.jp/ And that is just two. Video People 2008 had about 200 people in attendance! Much larger than they even expected; and the group was really into learning about videoblogging; many of them already have fledgling sites started. The next day, a bunch of us met up to do this Tokyo Hunt http://dougajin.com/tokyo_hunt/, which was just a reason to go run around the city and videotape whatever. (My group went to eat Fugu-- which I've always wanted to do). Now we are all editing the footage to put up onto the site. Stickam.jp livecasted us. Pretty interesting. Anyway, I just want to shout out to Tajee for putting on an amazing event!! (her videoblog is here: http://amino-tajee.com/) She should be really proud. I'm coming back for next year, definitely.

Re: [videoblogging] Lavalier mic recommendations
Hi Dina: I just realized that you primarily wanted a lavalier mic. The info below was primarily tested with an iRiver mp3 player/recorder, but it may be helpful for your videos. Regardless of what you choose, consider the effects of wind noise when outside. I'm sure some of the folks on this list can give you suggestions for not just the brand, but the type of mic and windscreen to consider in those situations. I have had good success with this Lavalier mic The Audio Technica ATR-30 Unidirectional Microphone (about $30) (I also mention it on the same page I sent before- http:// tinyurl.com/24kyyu ). And there's a section on that page about my thoughts on the Giant Squid products. Not sure if the inexpensive ($13) Radio Shack 900MHz 8-Channel Wireless Audio-Link Transmitter wireless device will turn any of these into a good quality wireless mic, but someone else on the list might know.

Re: [videoblogging] Lavalier mic recommendations
First, it's about time you began to learn the joys of podcasting, Rox. About time :) As to mics / audio gear want to pipe in with this: New gear is good. But the same $100 you spend on a low-end new mic would get you two really good high-end used ones. Lots of gear around the Interwebs. Lectrosonics and Sennheiser are two respected wireless names in pro audio circles. Trim and Tram were / are solid choices for lavalieres. Add Sanken COS-11 and Countryman B6, too. Set yourself up with ebay alerts for those names like Lectrosonics Wireless Sennheiser Wireless Trim Lav Tram Lav, etc. When you get hits, go to the manufacturer's site and familiarize yourself with each unit's specs. Contact me off-list if you have any questions about the gear. Happy to make an email to a seller on your behalf if you wish. You can likely get a $2,000 unit for $500; a $350 lav for $50-75. Something to add into your thinking. Jan On Jan 29, 2008 3:30 AM, Roxanne Darling [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks Andrew - and to Dina, sorry I default to wireless!

[videoblogging] Re:Lavalier mic recommendations
Hi Dina, I have been using a Sennheiser MKE-300 shotgun mic with very good results for a surprisingly wide range of applications. I have found that it actually gives me better sound isolation in all but the most extreme of situations than the low to mid-range wireless lavs that I have rented from various rental houses. I know that you are looking to go wireless, and for some applications like long-range interviews, walking tours or for movement instruction (like yoga) they are best. I just thought I'd share with the list my pleasant surprise at the quality of sound on this little mic. I spent a long time researching it and I thought that if any of you are looking for a general purpose external mic this might be one to take a look at. It's nice and small for compact camcorders (I use it on my HV-20) and pretty cheap for a Sennheiser ($130 on BH).

Re: [videoblogging] What's the best way to credit music from ccmixter

The site has no info on how to credit these mashes it just points to the creative commons page, which is pretty vague. So we will see what he says. I make piddles with the adsense.

[videoblogging] VlogEurope 2008 date and time suggestion
Hey all, Some of you might have heard of VlogEurope. If you have not, VlogEurope is an annual informal gathering of videobloggers from Europe and friends from outside Europe. It has so far taken place three times: September 2005: Amsterdam, November 2006: Milan, September 2007: Heidelberg. This year we were hoping to let VlogEurope take place in a more central- or Eastern European setting, and after Loiez (www.loiez.org) suggested Budapest, we thought: Yeah! Budapest fulfills our mentioned and often stated intention to move things east, it is cheap to get to, cheap to be in and we hear of many good times there. The date of such a conference is always tricky. After requesting feedback from our community, we concluded that October 18th and 19th, Saturday and Sunday, are the best dates with hopes that as many people as possible can be in Budapest Friday night. October is in the climate-friendly autumn, squarely situated between the summer and christmas'y travel plans that you might have. If you have any feedback on this, you are welcome to leave them on this mailing list, join the Vlog Europe Yahoogroup ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/vlogeurope), leave comments on our blog entry (http://www.vlogeurope.com/blog, or e-mail me or Jeffrey Taylor (thejeffreytaylor AT gmail.com) personally if you have questions or comments We'll be coming out with further details on what we ourselves envision the event to look like within the next couple of weeks. Be sure to get the word out to anyone and everyone who would be interested in coming to the event! Best regards, Raymond M.

The thing I love about these events is how the activities all cross-pollinate, there's elements of past events in Vlog People and some new elements (workflow discussions) that we'll definitely use for Vlog Europe. So here's my questions for you or anyone else in Japan who feels they can answer: What, above all else, do you think motivates people to vlog in Japan? Are there cultural barriers that the Japanese have to get over in order to blog? Were most of the attendees from Tokyo, or were many regions of Japan represented? Beyond the most excellent and affable Tajee, do you see any individuals or groups coming forward to bring existing videobloggers together and teaching people how to videoblog?

What was good about it is that the first day consisted of talks around how to easily videoblog (not just youtube, but a variety of services), as well as some of the more popular Japanese videobloggers talked about their workflow. Some work in groups, others work solo. Some are richly edited pieces, others are talking heads... just like the rest of us. A couple of the presenters: Megwin, one of the most popular vloggers here, does so well that MTV Japan signed him up to do one video a day for 365 days. What I love about his stuff is that his comedy transcends language so non-japanese folks can understand him. Check him out: http://megwin.com Another is Tokyo Drift, which is a group travelouge type site. They all work remotely and use Senduit to exchange files and rough edits, then use a private youtube account to show the final edit so they can all approve it, then it goes live. They came to SF for MacWorld; I wish I knew that so I could have shown them SF as they have shown me Tokyo. They are here: http://tokyodrift.jp/ And that is just two. Video People 2008 had about 200 people in attendance! Much larger than they even expected; and the group was really into learning about videoblogging; many of them already have fledgling sites started. The next day, a bunch of us met up to do this Tokyo Hunt http://dougajin.com/tokyo_hunt/, which was just a reason to go run around the city and videotape whatever. (My group went to eat Fugu-- which I've always wanted to do). Now we are all editing the footage to put up onto the site. Stickam.jp livecasted us. Pretty interesting. Anyway, I just want to shout out to Tajee for putting on an amazing event!! (her videoblog is here: http://amino-tajee.com/) She should be really proud. I'm coming back for next year, definitely. You can see some of my quick reports from here in Tokyo on my blog. My edited footage is coming up-- havent had time to sit and edit out here; too busy seeing the city! -- Schlomo Rabinowitz http://schlomolog.blogspot.com http://hatfactory.net AIM:schlomochat [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] -- Jeffrey Taylor Mobile: +33625497654 Fax: +33177722734 Skype: thejeffreytaylor Googlechat/Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://twitter.com/jeffreytaylor -- Schlomo Rabinowitz http://schlomolog.blogspot.com http://hatfactory.net AIM:schlomochat [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

[videoblogging] Re: VlogEurope 2008 date and time suggestion
Well, if you can stand one more crazy American in the mix I'd like to try to make VlogEurope. This means I have to get a passport and stock up on my Airplane peanuts. I don't think Southwest Airlines has flights to Europe and I can't fly without my peanuts. You don't want me flying without my peanuts either. ;-) I don't know how much it will cost but I'm willing to jump over to the other side of creek. I think one of the Josh's had a video on the city and it was beautiful. Gena http://outonthestoop.blogspot.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Raymond M.

This year we were hoping to let VlogEurope take place in a more central- or Eastern European setting, and after Loiez (www.loiez.org) suggested Budapest, we thought: Yeah!

The date of such a conference is always tricky. After requesting feedback from our community, we concluded that October 18th and 19th, Saturday and Sunday, are the best dates with hopes that as many people as possible can be in Budapest Friday night.
