Blogging'. Enric asks what this has to do with videoblogging. I think that
is a very good and important question. Personally, I want people to view my
work. I want them to think that I've said something important. I want to
change peoples lives through my work. (Granted most of my work is still
text based and isn't really life changing. That is part of why I come here
to learn from some of you.)
I guess my reaction is something like this: If a videoblogger posts a video
of a tree falling in the forest, and no one watches the video, does it
matter?
In light of all of this, I would like to take Enric's question to return to
talking about technique, method, and related activity. What technique's and
methods are going to help me produce videoblogs that people won't dismiss as
shallow?
I have a very specific motive in this. I am convening the citizen
filmmaking track at the Media Giraffe Project summit at University of
Massachusetts, Amherst on June 29th. I am looking for the videos that
illustrate the depth and beauty that videoblogging can provide. I'm looking
for people that can help others improve their craft.
So, let me ask you a favor. Can people on this list nominate people and
videos that I can contact?
** Who are the best people to introduce others to how to make online videos?
Here, I'm looking for real nuts and bolts stuff here. Who can speak best
about different cameras? Who can speak best about different editing tools,
etc.
** Who are the best people to introduce others about making animations?
Here, I'm looking at various styles, Flash, Machinima, 3D animatios, AMVs,
etc.
** If you could attend a master class on film making, aimed at
videobloggers, who would you want to teach the class?
** Who are the best people to talk about getting videos distributed online?
Here, I'm thinking about the people that can talk most intelligently about
pros and cons of different services like YouTube, Blip.TV, vSocial,
ClipShack etc. I'm also thinking about the best way to get other people to
find your videos. Thoughts about sites like current.tv etc. Finally, I'm
interested in if anyone is doing stuff with bringing the best of video blogs
beyond the web, for example to public access TV.
** Finally, what are the best videos out there?
Please let me know your thoughts on this. Don't be shy. Feel free to
nominate yourself if you think you have something special to offer.
