Anthony & Enric’s Ex’pression Vlog
In the afternoon of November 18th I went to Expression College for Digital Arts in Emeryville, California. Schlomo and Dave Toole provided an interactive presentation of videoblogging. I joined Ted Tagami and Markus Sandy as faciliators to three volunteer students to shoot, edit, post and view a vlog of the band performing at the end of the presentation. The video on this post was completed by Anthony and I. Anthony shot the band footage, captured and did the edit (the edit was completed in twenty minutes!) I shot the audience footage, uploaded the video to blip.tv and posted it on the Xpression vlog.
I learned a few things watching Anthony edit with certainty of the editing tools (Fina Cut Pro), footage and intended results. Anthony immediately took the sample footage Schlomo provided of seagulls flying above a beach and my audience footage, stripped the audio, cut them and placed them in the second video timeline over song elements. He used a moire filter on the seagull footage and Dip to Color Dissolve leading to white in and out of the seagulls.

Announcing “Tech Alley” (length: 1:09)
Originally my sites focus at Cirne was for Film related videos. However since October I have presented videos on digital technology developments and events. So I created a new site, Tech Alley, into which the future digital technology videos will live. And I’ll go back to producing on Cirne videos about Film.

On Gaming MemeOrandum (length: 1:14)
OK, earlier today I was looking at Tara’s site, HorsePigCow.com, that led me to the linked discussions and Alex Barnett’s screencast on gaming MemeOrandum (sorry if the "O" isn’t meant to be capitalized.) I recalled when I interviewed Gabe on memeorandum at the October 24th Geek Dinner, he talked about people gaming it. At that time I hadn’t looked at memeorandum yet and Dave Winer had been joking about Web 2.0. So I asked about collaboration in memorandum 😉

After TagCamp (length: 9:11)
I was late to TagCamp. OK, I got there at 5:10 pm on Saturday when it was wrapping up. But I’ve wanted to test my theory that the interesting conversation is at the bar after the event.
So here we are two blocks down at Old Pro Restaurant:
- Geoffrey Arone and Bart Decrem co-founders of Flock on the current release.
- Phil Wolff editor of Skype Journal talks about quality of the event. (Phil had more interesting things to say, but I didn’t pay attention to the camera viewer that the tape had run to the end….still learning.)
- The fun and interesting Tara ‘Miss Rogue’ Hunt of Riya – Photo Search on MemeOrandum, Jeff Jarvis, supr.c.ilio.us, Pandora Music…
- Phillip Jeffrey on Jamie Foxx 😉
P.S. This video entry should work on the video iPod. Try it out.
Online Video And The Future Of Television conference
Awhile back on Friday September 30th, 2005 I went to the Getting Ready for Prime Time: Online Video and the Future of Television conference at The Hillside Club in Berkeley, CA. My video camera was broken (the green signal went out.) So I took a bunch of pictures that are finally up on my flickr site.
A range of presentations were given on the future developments of video. Among them were:
- Archival and library fair use storage and access to copyrighted media.
- Technological developments by companies like Vimeo.
- Research and developments in identifying and tagging still and moving media.
and - Coming media access issues like DRM.

Length: 6:05
This is the iPod version of the “Geek Dinner at Fellini” video. Please feel free to upload to your iPod and view. If it fails, please let me know at enric at cirne dot com. (The video should also play on Quicktime 7.)
Below is the information on the video:
Dave Winer threw a Geek Dinner at Fellini Restaurant in Berkeley for Robert Scoble. It was at the back of the resaurant which was had a few posters and movie stills from the films of one of my favorite filmakers, Federico Fellini.
It was a bit crowded since the space for schmoozing was relatively narrow between the tables and bar. But no one seemed to mind much and there was much animated conversation.
Featured in the video are:
- Matt Mullenweg, orginator of WordPress
- Marc Canter, founder and CEO of Broadband Mechanics which released Ourmedia
- Don Hopkins, Sims object developer
and - Gabe Rivera of Memeorandum
