Jim Kukral: Announcement: Making The Leap To Video Blogs Only In 2008 - No More Text

  • Stormy · 1 year ago
    Right On, Jim! You're inspiring me as I make the slow crawl to moving my sites new content to video. Looking forward to seeing where you go. I'd say You Go Girl, but, well the girl part doesn't apply so You Go!

    Right on! If I had time to produce, I'd be right there along with you. I tried the podcast thing late last year, and just producing those were really time consuming. Video is even more. I hope you have a fast fast computer with lots of memory and a huge HD before you undertake such a venture --- and oh --- LOT's of time. :)

    Good luck, and I look forward to seeing what you do.

    Great post you just convinced me that my next blog is going to be a vidoe blog. Been thinking about this for weeks now and i think your article just help me decide.

    I trust you will be providing closed captioning or subtitles so as not to alienate your hearing impaired readers (including me), right? :-)

    @Stormy, Can't wait to show you what I've come up with!

    @Rex, Yes, it will be time consuming, but satisfying. I'm not doing HD, that's for sure. Adds too much time to editing. Using my flip cam :) www.buytheflip.com

    @Marketing Blog, Glad to help you do it!

    @Lincoln, well, I'm going to have to figure how to do that. For now I'll post the scripts for each show below the videos.

    Don't forget, you can't "print out" video, lol. I've heard that one a couple times.

    As for the the impaired, you've been alienating the visually impaired since 2001 by not providing an audio version of this blog! Good video summaries win both worlds.

    have fun jim, ignore the haters.

    Jim, only teasing, sort of. ;-) Project ReadOn attempts to caption many Internet videos so it might be something to look into if you want to make your videos as accessible as possible.

    Thanks Jim for leading the way! I'll be watching and learning from you. :-) I too have become convinced that video is a smart marketing move. I look forward to your videos and learning from the master.

    it can be a problem in beginning when starting making own videos, you look now in your videos like a professionalist, congrats!

    Personally, I do not like to watch videos. I prefer to read. Good luck though.

    I have been doing an HD Video blog and the biggest problem I'm running into is time. Capture, edit, compression and uploading take so long. I've got a flow down now but it still is a time sucker. Here's an example of my show: http://acircleofjerks.com/a-circle-of-jerks-no-...

    A circle of jerks, you have a great show there. I like it a lot! But you know, editing in HD is a lot tougher. I don't do HD.
