Its everywhere and its becoming a natural reaction for anyone wanting to express themselves on the web. I wanted to take some time to review a few of the different ways to engage in the act of creating a video blog posting, because there are lots of ways to get your content out besides the regular stops like YouTube and MySpace…
This site is very simple to use and offers a lot of resources for everyone, new and old to video blogging. The biggest resource on this site is how easy it is to get started and there is even a free tutorial that walks you through it step by step. Some posts are fun like “Videoblogs On The iPhone“, or informative like ” How To Install And Setup WordPress“.
This is definitely an artists domain here observing the roots of early film making and how they feel it should transcend to the web. I was impressed by how many different ways people out there were using just static random shots to tell a story. The rules are simple: 60 seconds max. Fixed camera. No audio. No zoom. No edit. No effects.
Vator.tv is definitely a business driven video blogging site. The focus here is to give people with a business idea or existing model a way to connect with possible investors. Here its all about the “pitch” and how well you can sell your concept and find a venture capitalist willing to take a chance on it. There are definitely some heavy duty investors here, even Forbes 400 man Mark Cuban has a video post on there to tell everyone what he’s looking for when it comes to investment opportunities.
These were some of the highest ranking sites for the google keywords “video blogging”. It will be interesting to see what other kinds of sites come about that connect people together to just meet, speak their minds or do business with one another.
Aric Allen sat down with Mike Belasco, a Denver-based SEO specialist, to find out ways introducing video content into a website can generate traffic and boost conversion rates.
iClips provides free live video event streaming and is yet another company taking advantage of the penetration rate of broadband. Dan Plym of Third Eye Media Group was asked out to provide production support which included some camera time for RJD2 who opened on Friday night and for STS9 on Saturday.
“In an era where consumers control their media experiences, rich media provides more valuable and engaging experiences than most standard online advertising. When executed well, rich media can exponentially out-perform standard ad units”
Broadband is here and taking advantage of the penetration rate gets easier every day. eMarketer predicts that by early 2008 over 157 million Americans will be accessing the Internet via a broadband connection. Companies are already enjoying being able to take advantage of “engagement branding”.
My next door neighbor’s front yard is dominated by two towering pine trees that create a canopy touching the roof line. The other day, I was getting out of my car and I heard some commotion coming from those trees. Looking up i saw a huge white and brown hawk burst through and ascended.
In direct pursuit were four laughing crows, they were heckling and taunting the hawk as it attempted to get back the prey they had stolen. The four rumbled around the hawk like a gang of dirt bike kids. And like a bunch of delinquent kids they are good at sharing information but not goods. Crows, like good thieves, steal more then they need and stash the rest. A carcass could sit there and be picked clean by 500 crows in a matter of hours. They won’t eat it all but the news of food spreads out and gathering, they all steal more than they need. To me this sounds like the most popular internet destinations:
Brian Quigley from Fusion Financial recently contracted Third Eye to create a web commercial for his website. We are really happy with the results and so is Brian.

My whole life I have been trapped in suburbia. For most people there is nothing wrong with it, especially here in the Mile High City. Burbs like Arvada, Westminster, Broomfield, and now Flat Irons are pretty nice. Anywhere around here is within an hour of the mountains and there are usually some good spots to grab a bite here and there but that seems to be all there is to it.
In the last 10 years or so downtown has really turned around. There is A LOT to do now. And..AND the public transportation is getting better by the minute. I’m really looking forward to the big move to the city, something I’ve wanted to do since I was a kid. Even better we’ll be practically sharing a property line with our production studio so the commute is a 30 second walk.
I use to think LA was the place for me, but now I find myself excited to see what Denver has to really offer a budding business owner like myself.
