Re: [videoblogging] Let's stake our claim by cross-promoting vlogs

2005-11-02 Thread Michael Sullivan



some people have added intro/promo videos attached to their vlogdir entries.
wish more existed. 
examples:
http://vlogdir.com/permalink/975
http://vlogdir.com/permalink/405
http://vlogdir.com/permalink/456
http://vlogdir.com/permalink/836
 
i could provide a list of all promo videos in the vlogdir... i am actually working on a few things like that i want to rotate these intro/promo videos more prominently on main page... and also adding a 'revlogdir' subdirectory for video submissions.

Gabe at xolo.tv also often calls out for promos to share on his vlog, but
the main problem seems to be a lack of promos to show.

I would not be surprised if one significant problem is that there are
so few "show concept" videoblogs at the moment. It's both tricky and
slightly pointless to make and share a promo if you have no idea what
video you might do next.

FYI, this has been proposed before, but I don't know what happened to
the repository of trailers. Another cross-promotion effort comes from

[videoblogging] Let's stake our claim by cross-promoting vlogs

2005-11-02 Thread wazman_au
The big media do it, so why don't we? Let's put trailers in our 
videos that promote other vlogs we like. Everyone could make their 
own trailer for their podcast; post it somewhere, maybe in a central 
repository; and others could include them in their videos as they 
see fit. I'd be happy to include a five- or 10-second clip with 
Crash Test Kitchen episodes.

There are some vlogs out there attracting a fair-sized audience and 
getting exposure through the likes of iTunes. I'm happy with how 
Crash Test Kitchen is doing and I notice other people on this list 
cropping up in the Top 100 podcasts. We haven't yet, but we got on 
the front page once!

I'm sure there are other vlogs equally worthy of exposure that, for 
no good reason, haven't been in the limelight so much. They could 
benefit if the higher-rated podcasts helped promote them.

The big media are already starting to bombard podcasting, so let's 
stake our claim as a group. We could brand ourselves as the 
Independent Video Podcast Network or something more catchy. A catchy 
animation, logo or something would help with the branding.

I know there are some people doing similar things - like Steve 
Garfield with his Vlog Soup - and I think we should take it a step 
further.
