I write about editing and my canon sd300. When I got my camera, I heard that the screen on the back breaks. This makes sense because it’s fragile and really big for such a small camera. Since I carry it around in my pocket, I made a safety screen out of .8mmm lexan. Lexan is a window product that can be used for insulation or if it’s thick enough, it’s bullet proof. I use lexan for making shadow puppets because it’s strong and you can cut it with scissors.

Chris Ritke interviewed me and then I interviewed him! In this video he gives some good advice for interviewing and lots more. He also shows off his gear and tells about an amazing hack job he’s done to record phone calls which I would love to duplicate! Thanks for the great interview Chris!

This last weekend, Zadi and I had the privilege of meeting and interviewing Rene in person at Webzine2005. Rene works on really cool collaborive vlog projects like the green thing project and this last weekend she had the ultimate project, “Meet The Zinesters.” She put up a green screen and video-taped everyone who would have it at the conference. Then she edited it so that their website showed up behind them as they were talking about it! What she ended up with is a series of videos that document the people on the bleeding edge of independent online publishing. Besides thinking up cool projects, Rene is an editing genius who does really cool things with video effects. I’d travel from Seattle to San Francisco in a heartbeat if she ever offered a class in Final Cut Pro. Go to her site, watch it all and Subscribe!
Chris Ritke of 49Media is very cool. He’s a really great interviewer. His relaxed interview style allowed me to access my passion for grassroots media. Go listen!
Take a listen to me go off on the power of online media and suggest the idea of speedpodcasting! Thanks Tagami!

Zadi got written up in the NYT today and I interviewed her about her video here in San Francisco where we’ve come to hotwire the media revolution at the Webzine 2005 conference. She’s great and even though she’s worried about a cease and decist letter, she’s super positive about making a difference in the world by doing what you have got to do to tell your story.
I’m curious about the whole copyright grey area of mashups. We live in a digital age. I’m curious about what people think about artists remix things.
Go read her vlog and watch her remix video.
Technical Note; There is a lot of shaking the camera at the beginning of this video. I’m still gettingused to using the Canon sd300 to take video. It’s a teeny little stills camera and takes great video
