video

Wondering if people want together for a session during (or after) OSCMS. It would be great if people wanted to talk through some of the existing projects that can work with video in drupal and perhaps lay some plans for collaboration and integration between projects. I'd be happy to help organize this.

Hello,

Just to start with something I want to share my own experience with video in Drupal. Here is what I've found and studied after a couple of months fighting with tasks related to video content.

The first module was, of course, video.module. It is a big and powerful module. I loved it a lot for its features but, nevertheless, I was slightly disappointed because of several reasons (to be short):
1. Video node can't be flexibly extended unless you patch the module (at least when I was trying it).

Torrent for my high quality screencap of the Fourth Lesson is up!. The whole thing is 2:20 and about 180mb.

If you want to post a recode or other derivative, drop a link in the comments here and I'll flesh out the main node with more downloads.

Wheew -

It's been a longish time coming, but last night we launched the Drupal remake of the web site for The Cedar Cultural Center. Made a lot of use of the audio and video modules, and eventually there'll be a lot more.

Old site - http://old.thecedar.org

New Site - http://www.thecedar.org

Whaddya think?

Good news! There are several people that have volunteered to help out with coverage of DrupalCon, and Norbert Fuerst has offered his services to do post production on all footage through his video production company.

I've just posted this request to the front page of the Drupalcon site:

We've already had both Development Seed and CONSEN step up and commit some money at the Silver sponsor level in order to get video coverage of DrupalCon.

However, having looked into getting coverage by a firm that specializes in such things, it looks to be 900EU for one cameraperson for only one day of the conference...which would only cover one room as well. This looks to be too expensive for us.

So, we are looking to the community to come up with some ideas. One person in a comment said they could bring their camcorder, but we need commitment from people to setup and run such coverage.

Anyone have other ideas regarding video coverage?

Other ideas and/or organizing to get full coverage -- please post below.

We captured over 10 hours of video from <a href='http://drupal.org/node/58182">Drupal Camp SF a couple months back. We also have a budget in the neighborhood of $2,000 to put into editing it release. Before we contract someone out to start cutting the video, lets think about what we want to get out of it in the end.

Here is what we covered at the camp:

Day 1
* Bsics of the Drupal framework, community, and theming system.
* Basics of Drupal configuration
* Jeff shows us how to create an alternative navigation menu for users of sites. This will give users a much more streamlined menu interface.

thanks jacob redding!

I need some examples of nice media sites for the Greenpeace UK demo. I already have ourmedia.org - but it would be nice to show a site that did good "photo". Help!
