Open Video Conference!

I’m planning on attending the Open Video Conference this June 19th & 20th in NYC, and if you’re interested in free culture, online video, open source or all of the above, I highly suggest attending as well! There’s going to be a lot of people discussing the future of online video and what can be done to encourage and create open standards.

But it won’t be just tech-talk: there’s going to be showcases of work and talks by some awesome cultural pioneers like Clay Shirkey and Yochai Benkler.

Watch the awesome intro video by Jay Dedman and Ryanne Hodson.

PHLedit - a video editing coworking event

Videographers, videobloggers, and video podcasters: come on down to IndyHall and work on all those videos you’ve been meaning to work on for the last 6 months!

On October 4th, 2008, I’ll be hosting a new event called PHLedit, a video editing coworking/jam session/hackfest event. It will be held at Independents Hall starting at 5pm on Saturday, October 4, 2008.

PHLedit is a free, unstructured video-centric coworking event. Video editors, video bloggers, video podcasters, or anyone who wants to come and edit in a supportive and casual environment are invited to do so. Wifi and power connections, seats, and desks are provided, but you’ll have to bring your own equipment and software.

This event was inspired by similar events across the country-PHXedit in Phoenix, AZ and SF Video Edit and SuperHappyVlogHouse in San Francisco, CA. It is loosely affiliated with Node101, an open-source movement to teach and spread videoblogging.

Some food and drink will be provided, but we’d like to do a potluck of sorts as well. Please bring some snacks (nom nom nom) to share if you are able to.
