It is <a href="http://www.seetoo.com. " rel="nofollow">http://www.seetoo.com. </a></p> <p>We make our users share their media contents with their friends instantly, skipping the lengthy file upload phase. We provide synchronized watching experience for the Initiator (broadcaster) and the Viewers (friends).  And furthermore -  the file size is unlimited, you can run any size you like! </p> <p>The Initiator have to go through short setup, while the Viewer just should have a Flash player in his browser (same for the Initiator). We support almost every known media formats. </p> <p>The trick is online media transcoding and streaming from the desktop to SeeToo servers. The synchronization is achieved by constantly monitoring and feedback of all participants and adjusting both the up-going and the down-going streams to the feedback parameters.</p> <p>We are in operational beta state. All core functionalities are on and working. We are currently working on further enriching the functionality scope.</p> <p>I would appreciate any your remarks, comments or hints.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>     Alex</p> <p> </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/sell-your-own-instructional-content#post-35637 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 17:28:59 +0000 Ellen 35637@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>If you have any instructional content / "how to" videos that you own (8-10 minutes in length), upload them to the MindBites.com instructional video marketplace and receive 50% of the proceeds each time someone purchases your video.   This is a great way to earn money for yourself or any charity of your choice.</p> <p> On ebay you make money by selling what is in your garage and at MindBites.com, you can earn money from sharing what you know. </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/i-am-looking-for-folks-who-can-upload-their-own-how-to-videos#post-35636 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 17:21:50 +0000 Ellen 35636@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hello there.  My name is Ellen and I am looking for new video authors for MindBites.com.   A video author can be absolutely anyone who knows how to do anything that they can share and teach. </p> <p> MindBites.com is a new instructional video marketplace where anyone can upload their own "how to" videos and put them up for sale.  Typically 8-10 minute instructional videos are sold for $1.99 per download and MindBites splits the proceeds 50/50 with you.  In other words, you will receive $1.00 everytime someone purchases your "how to" video.   If you can operate a video camera and have basic editing skills, you are a candidate to become a MindBites author.  This is a great way to earn residual income.  We are looking for "how to" content of any kind as long as it is in good taste and useful.  </p> <p>MindBites.com focuses on the authors of the videos as we share from the first $1 of revenue and we have programs in place to help folks succeed at all levels.  It cost nothing to get started and upload your videos.  Unlike other instructional video sites, we are interested in you personally and what you know, not just your videography skills.</p> <p> You never know what knowledge people are looking for until you upload what you have to share.   Check us out <a href="http://www.MindBites.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.MindBites.com</a>  Here is a press release that provides further information: </p> <p><a href="http://prweb.com/releases/2008/3/prweb792124.htm" rel="nofollow">http://prweb.com/releases/2008/3/prweb792124.htm</a></p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/post-your-favorite-books-on-filmmaking#post-35169 Tue, 19 Feb 2008 06:26:43 +0000 maxzilla 35169@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Post your favorite books on filmmaking with the author and a short description about the book.</p> <p><strong>The Guerrilla  Filmmaker Movie Blueprint</strong> by Chris Jones</p> <p>  The books goes into heavy detail about the process of production and what role everyone plays in production covering crew sizes from 10-ish (low budget indie) to 40-ish (low budget industry), and i'm guessing if you've got a crew bigger than these you should probably already have enough experience and not not need this book. This is really an awesome book to have.</p> <p><strong>Directing: Shot By Shot</strong> by Steven D. Katz</p> <p> This book teaches you the very technical, tedious, and often challenging process of visualizing your ideas for shots, being able to storyboard them, and then actually shooting them. There are over 20 chapters, but the book basically is divided into 3rds, visualizing, storyboarding, and shooting. The book contains many storyboards from Empire of the Sun, The Birds, Citizen Kane, and Blade Runner.</p> <p><strong>Directing: Cinematic Motion</strong> by Steven D. Katz</p> <p>I've haven't read this book yet, but I am going to be purchasing it very soon. It basically covers the non-technical aspects of directing, and focuses on blocking and staging your scenes with your actors within the frame. It's a direct sequel to Shot by Shot. If it's as good as that book was, I'll be able to recommend it, but we'll see. If anyone has already read it, please post your opinion.</p> <p><strong>Directing Actors for Film and Television</strong> by Judith Weston</p> <p> Your actors are the elements that truly bring the screenplay and the film itself to life. So why not get the absolute most out of them. Judith Weston runs directing actors workshops across the country and based on what I read in the book, she must really know what she's doing. This book educates you to better understand your actors in what's going through their heads when they're preparing their role and while on set, but also the different approaches you can take in helping them improve their performances and also to avoid the wrong approaches. I can also recommend this book to actors who are interest in film or television as it will help you direct yourself and better understand what the director is telling you.</p> <p><strong>The Film Director's Intuition</strong> by Judith Weston</p> <p> I bought this book last month and haven't gotten the chance to read it quite yet. This book is an immediate sequel to Directing Actors. It covers script analysis and rehearsal techniques. If it turns out to be as good as Directing Actors I will be able to recommend it.</p> <p><strong>Screenwriting for Teens: 100 Principles  Every Budding Writer Should Know</strong> by Christina Hamlett</p> <p> No matter what age you are, this book is AWESOME. This book could easily be used as textbook for a screenwriting class at a high school. Basically each chapter is a principal, 1 page long, and on the back of that page are movies that you can watch that contain this principle and also brainstorming exercises that you can do. This can easily be a self-taught course. It's a little over 200 pages, but you could easily read it in a week.</p> <p> I've got a bunch of other filmmaking books in my collection, but not any really great or unique ones that don't have a couple hundred just like it.</p>
