The Viddler Spotlight

15seconds - New Viddler Group

Brandice — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 15:00:00 +0000

So, just a thought, but why do we need a separate video hosting service for videos under a certain length? Why not just create a group for micro-video-updates that are 15 seconds or under?

I don’t know about you, but I like to keep as much of my video in one place as possible, so I’ll be putting my quickie vids in our new 15seconds Group. Here’s my first try:

AND, there’s already a 15seconds question of the day! Can you describe love in 15 seconds?

Gary’s Keynote at New Media Expo

Brandice — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 09:00:51 +0000

The footage is up and available for viewing! Watch below to see Gary Vaynerchuk of Wine Library TV speak at the opening keynote at the New Media Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada. This was a really great way to start off the Expo, and Viddler got a lot of great exposure, as Gary discussed our new player, our new options for branding and customization, and the value of using tools like ours to really own your content.

Apologies for the sometimes shaky cam hands and the less than stellar audio in this video… it was filmed by myself, Colin and Kyle from the audience, two of us using Flip Ultras on the fly. The keynote itself more than makes up for it, we promise!

Ecc1977 actually went to his parents’ home and dug out his “School Days” book to give us a picture of everything he’s wanted to be over the years for his When I Grow Up video. I really wish my school had done something like this… what a neat idea!

Is Raphael a movie director?

Brandice — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 15:32:52 +0000

Peter Jackson might have beaten Raphael to a movie adaptation of The Lord of the Rings, but it sounds like he’s still working a field that he’s always wanted to be a part of, from the sounds of his When I Grow Up video.

DavidMichaels - An Apple store kid (music!)

DavidMichaels never fails to make me laugh, and his When I Grow Up video is not exception. I think David and I might have grown up to be the same thing…
