Another attempt at a trailer for my videos, but still not where I want it to be. The challenge is that most of my videos don’t make sense when you only see a few seconds of them, so it’s hard to decide whether to show 20 seconds of just a few, or go rapid fire footage with music… maybe the answer is a blend.
You’re running a brand that is trying to “dip your toe” into social media and online video, and you’re facing some important questions: Is my brand right for this? How can I experiment without ending up as a “case study” failure? Can I convince my company that we should do this? What are my options…
I don’t often quote press releases, but this release by Vmatrix is quite accurate: Two hottest trends in online marketing – streaming video and video SEO – will take off in popularity in 2009. According to online marketing studies, Google’s universal search algorythms, which allow multimedia to appear in search results along with web page…
Seems that lady who fell into the mall fountain while texting (in a video that went viral, and resulted in her heartfelt news appearances) seems to have some prior convictions on her record… a few retail thefts and a hit and run. At least she didn’t appear to get any shoplifted goodies wet. For more…
“Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan” opening has been a wild success, and the movie remains #1 in America for a second week. But as Steve Garfield reports, not all of the film’s extras signed on with an understanding of the film’s comedic nature. Star and screenplay author Sacha Baron…
You can touch the grey arrows to the right and left to advance to the next video if you have ADHD. The arrows vanish when you start watching a video, but they’re still there just like God when times are rough. You just can’t see them. Click on the right or left side of the…
Blip.TV has automated the process of uploading videos to its site and then blogging about ’em. That last post was an example. I didn’t log on WordPress to post it. I just selected “blog it” once I had uploaded my video to Blip. Quite cool. I initially had problems with it, and received quick feedback…

Hey… I actually quite like it. Needs a “movie trailer guy” voiceover… “In a world where a camera lens is the eye, and laughter is the voice… One man rises like a Feces from the ashes to restore peace to the Universe… This summer has “Fart” written all over it… and that fart is… Nalts.”
I forgot about the crackberry addict. LOLs. I need to send that to MrsJimmer, she’s been accusing me of doing the same thing.
I made it through the first 15 seconds.
OMG! A trailer?! Aren’t those usually like 30 seconds to a minute long? Whatever happened to your 2 min rule and that was for a complete video!?!
I say rapid fire with music. Oh, and leave the Renetto bit out. I don’t like seeing you without hair. (I don’t mean your everyday balding self either)

What the fuck? Why do you need a trailer? You’re making crap. Crap doesn’t deserve a trailer. Only big budget movies get trailers.
@11 Crap needs a trailer. Why else would anyone buy crap?
If you’re talking about making a trailer like a “best of nalts” highlights reel under 2 minutes to show your advertisers, you’ve got to do better than the shit you’ve got in there. Huddle with your peeps for suggestions. And by peeps I mean us.
