Delurking to point out just a FEW of the MANY Filmmaker/Video Artists who Videoblog or Videoblogged or use video in their blogs, some of whom are right here in the videoblogging group:
Aaron Valdez Abe Linkoln Matt McCormick Jonas Mekas (OK, it's not free but still, one of the grandfathers of experimental film for pete's sake!) Jennifer Proctor Miranda July Caveh Zahedi Charlene Rule Joshua Kanies Duncan Speakman Me the list goes on and on. these are just the names that came immediately to mind (and I'm really sorry to any of my own filmmaker friends not listed above - brain is sleep deprived at present). And there are dozens if not more who post what are absolutely works of cinema for the web in many of their videoblog entries, including pionner vloggers like Jay Dedman and Ryanne Hodson and Mica Scalin and others who may or may not call themselves filmmakers as well as videobloggers. Yes, there are HUGE HUGE HUGE and very real issues about posting your work online, esp. work that is intended for other venues, but after 30 minutes of trying to compose a post about all of that I realized it's not a post, it's an article, and I at least wanted to point out in light of the previous comments that we do exist. _______________________________________________________ Brook Hinton film/video/audio art www.brookhinton.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
