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.
• True ease in writing comes from art, not chance. As those move easiest who have learned to dance.
• Story-telling; non-linear Vs linear
