[videoblogging] WITNESS - Human Rights Video Hub Pilot

2006-11-30 Thread J.D.
WITNESS (http://www.witness.org) has launched the Human Rights Video 
Hub Pilot (http://www.witness.org/index.php?
option=com_contenttask=viewid=482Itemid=), a participatory Web site 
where individuals can upload human rights-related videos that can be 
used to bring awareness to a larger audience. Footage can be uploaded 
from cell phones and other mobile devices, allowing immediate posting 
of user-generated content. WITNESS encourages participants to create 
groups with shared interests. A public premiere of the project is 
planned for 2007. Witness is led by Gillian Caldwell.



[videoblogging] Helping Vlogs to Flog (Advertising payments to vloggers)

Helping Vlogs to Flog

The Investor: Steve Krausz, general partner, U.S. Venture Partners

What he's backed: PodTech Network, Verity, Vontu

What he wants now: A matchmaking site that brings new forms of
advertising to one of the Web's fastest-growing new phenomena, the
video blog. Popular vlog Rocketboom got the concept off the ground
earlier this year by auctioning off 15-second house-produced ads at
the end of its Web newscasts; then-host Amanda Congdon also wore
T-shirts from startups eager for exposure.

Krausz wants a startup that can offer a clearinghouse of placement
opportunities from major advertisers like Apple (Charts) and Nike
(Charts) - from 10-second trailers to insertion of products in the
creative. Videos would be subject to screening and approval by the
advertiser, but Krausz thinks that's a service that could eventually
be outsourced. Payment to vloggers could be negotiated any number of
ways: They could receive fees based on impressions, click-throughs, or
both. The startup, of course, would take a healthy cut. It would
allow this explosion of user-generated content to get an additional
revenue stream, Krausz says. Nothing like this exists yet.

What he'll invest: $2 million for a proof-of-concept site and sign-on
from a handful of top advertisers

[videoblogging] Re: Time Magazine's Person Of The Year

2006-12-19 Thread J.D.
I see Time magazine has acknowledging the force of ordinary people 
changing our world through what is now termed Web 2.0. It has become 
such a huge force that the media is basically scrambling to keep up 
especially the vloggers. It is as though the internet has become a 
collective humanity living thing that is making the biggest impact 
(mostly positive in my perception) on our world, which makes it really 
not just one Person anymore. As well Time magazine made up the whole 
Personal of the year topic and if they want to change it that's their 
prerogative. Sure is interesting to watch how quickly people react 
without getting a broad spectrum of information (facts), and how 
negative and critically reactive people can be - Reminds me of the 
theme behind the book Who Moved My Cheese Heaven forbid something 
should change without first warning the sheeple!  LOL :-)

This could probably be easily done for low cost with two programs.
Camstudio - Free (screen capture)
Vlog It - ~$50 (video in video/telepromter and much more)

Happy Creating,

 I am trying to find what software is used to produce the video on this
 page.  It's quite a tool and I've never seen it before.
