ByNalts

It’s a showdown, folks, between Triscuit the Cat and Rusty the Dog (pets of babysitterofnalts). In this video, sponsored by Reader’s Digest, the cute animals duel on the cutest Halloween costume. I can’t stop watching this video, because my wife’s squeeky voice cracks me up. My low-pitch Rusty voice is based on J.K. Simmons (remember him…

Best Consumer-Generated Advertising?

ByNalts

What’s your favorite consumer-generated advertisement? (See Joseph Jaffe’s dated but comprehensive iMediaConnection article to get a better understanding of what CGA is). A classic is when iPod lover and teacher George Masters creates his own online campaign for Apple iPod. HappySlip’s Mac Beautiful is one of my favorites, and it was seen more than a…

ByNalts

Want to get your stuff seen? Should you obsess with YouTube or go for the “long tail“? Let’s explore this important debate, and obviously the right answer is “do both.” But don’t hold your breath waiting for a million views on YouTube, or kill yourself getting your video on the homepage of some niche blog…

How Will Amateurs Make Money from Online Videos in 2007?

ByNalts

Right now there are only two ways for an amateur to make money on short online videos, but this will soon change. Provide a website or network exclusive rights and get a one-time payment. We've seen certain amateur content creators already stop producing content for YouTube because they've been presumably approached by "content scouts." Remember…

Editing, MovieMaker and VideoBlogging

ByNalts

I asked folks on the Yahoo Videoblogging group if they knew of good sites that review online video software. Josh Kinberg suggested FreeVlog.com. On this site, authors Ryan and Michael recently posted an entire chapter on video editing (from their book “Secrets of Videoblogging). The chapter is free and meaty. Here’s the PDF to download…

  1. An email I got last year:
    “We know you’re sick of internet celebrities getting attention for doing nothing. We’re giving you a chance to be heard and make a difference in this community. Be creative and change what buzznet means to you.”

  2. There’s something wrong with that Sally Struthers post down below. It sucks life from my machine every time I TRY to comment there. It’s evil.

  3. Now I’m confused. Don’t you aspire to be some sort of social-media douche-bag, Kevin? Or virus video maven? Or consultant to the douche-bags? Something like like? Didn’t Slater fix you up?

    Holy moley! I just noticed: yesterday the little Tubemogul counter said 101 million views and today it says 102!! Jayzus Keerist! You’re on the move faster than a Nutcheese bowel movement!

  4. I think it’s fitting that the avatar has one of those douchebag goatee things. I’m always wary when guys grow one of those. Like that David Letterman extortionist guy. Guys with those things always have something unsavory they’re hiding. Except anybody on this blog, of course.

  5. ^ Ewwwww! I want something unsavory to hide! I’ll start growing my unsavory goatee thing immediately, if not sooner!

    P.S. Kevin
    All the shit I give you for being so successful?? It’s pure jealousy, my man. Nothing else.

  6. @4 Goatees are awesome! I’ve not shaved mine off since I grew it out in June 2008.

    Kevin, you should grow your goatee back out. It looks good on you. (Great. Now NutCheese is going to yell at me for kissing your ass. Oh well, que será, será.)

  13. @12 I’m not sure who Gentleman and Jan are, but are you saying you are growing your goatee out again?

    @9 That was a pretty cool video (a bit on the long side though). I loved the throat singing and the Scheming Weasel music reminded me of Nalts’ Airport Crawling video.

  14. @13
    Thanks. And thank goodness for Kevin MacLeod’s music. I used to compose my own backgrounds in Garageband and that was WAY too time consuming! That stuff’s better left to the experts.
