Re: [videoblogging] Re: Four Eyed Monsters
Hi JV, I just scheduled them for the next Node101/Boston Media Makers Meeting on March 5th. Arin Crumley and Susan Buice of the film Four Eyed Monsters, http://www.foureyedmonsters.com/ , are going to come and talk about making better videos. They are also going to talk about their experiences with MySpace. Arin and Susan are also interested having a conversation with us about where we think this is all going. http://www.feevlog.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17 On Feb 21, 2006, at 9:33 PM, JV wrote: Steve, you should get in touch with them.

Excellent. Yes, we are all gifts from God. But there are some here who don't get that. Awesome report JV. Lucky you to have direct contact with the FEM creators.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Four Eyed Monsters
Yes you are right. I was given JOY. I was given INSPIRATION. I was given ENTERTAINMENT. I was given LOVE. I was given HOPE. I was given IMAGINATION. I was given HUMILITY. All of this was given to me by a pair of youngsters from Brooklyn out of the goodness of their innocent hearts.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Four Eyed Monsters
I'm slightly off on a tangent...but here's an idea: Arin and Susan, if you are reading this, come on out to Vloggercon in SF! We can create something akin to a flash mob. If I am not mistaken, FEM is looking to get enough people to vote for a zip code to show their film. Now just supposing we dynamically registered a SF zip with each Vloggercon attendee?! We could have a Thurs or Fri night showing of their film in a theater!

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Four Eyed Monsters
Whats also great about FEM is that it helps other non-bloggy filmmakers get it. I showed that to some non-geek friends and they really began to understand the concept of posting regularly, staying subscribed, being personal, and not always thinking about the product in terms of how they can immediately make money. Plus its so nice and indy touchy-feely. Glad they were able to profoundly affect your life and bring you closer to nirvana, Taylor. bOn 2/21/06, Enric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, JV [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Aren't we all gifts from god?

They are using digital media , like many people on this forum, in new ways to an uncertain end. Also, like everyone here, they are very passionate (maybe not as sensitive though ;) ). I saw their film when they came through San Diego a few weeks ago. Both the podcasts and the film (in my oppinion) are better with each other. It is a good film and they have good video posts, but the product combined is greater than the sum of the parts. Combining different formats and presentations as a single product is not a trivial step. Hopefully it will be financially viable for them and we will see more projects come from them. Remember, this is not a zero sum game. Just because someone is getting something (newspaper stories, web traffic, free candy bars) doesn't mean it is less candy bars for everyone else. The more news articles about Fireant, the better for mefeedia. The more four eyed monster subscribers, the better for verdi. The more people posting videos of any format, the better for DivX.That is true.With the potential distribution to billions of personaltheatres (individual iPods, mobile phones, computer screens, etc.) thescarcity and control of large audience theatre locations is somewhat disintermediated.-- EnricYahoo!

I'm hoping that once everyone is equiped with the same tools they'll have a better understanding of how media works. Then they'll know they that have other choices. They'll realize that they can do things other than consume. Maybe some of them will start to communicate with each other or make art or just document thier lives. This is where competition becomes irrelevant. Sure there will always be things that are more popular than others but maybe there will be a chance that some of those things will just fucking fantastic instead of well marketed. -Verdi-- Me: http://michaelverdi.comRD: http://evilvlog.comLearn to videoblog: http://freevlog.orgLearn to videoblog in person: http://node101.org SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO!
