I started a job yesterday at a new startup company in NYC. I’m employee #2. I can’t say much about it yet, but will say that it’s going to be fun work, and lots of it. I’m confident in the idea, and the CEO. We’re going to change the world. Or at least make a bunch of money.
My session title for PodcampNYC this year is “Podcasting Television”: Why are the majority of video podcasters using television paradigms, self-censoring, and dumbing down their material? I’ll make a case for doing the opposite.
I’m going to make notes here on this post and try to arrange it into something coherent in the next couple weeks.
What are the rules of television shows? Why is it different on the web?
Freedom of creativity in Broadcast vs Cable vs HBO vs Internet
Purpose of the Internet
What does self-censorship do to a video?
Why do producers censor their own work?
Youtube vs The Internet; walled gardens;
Who is your audience? Are they smart?
Why do producers resort to l.c.d. methods and fodder?
Mouth-breathers
Putting television lessons to good use.
