Cyphers NEW Pilot Episode


CYPHERS is a web series that reveals the danger that lies just beneath the surface of an average New Mexican town, where serenity and blissful innocence mask a sinister reality. Based on true life controversial corporate stories, CYPHERS reveals a diverse group of conflicted, predominately female characters. All the characters are drawn together by a series of inexplicable phenomena, and must struggle to decipher and expose a dark corporate conspiracy that reaches far beyond their town. The one certainty is that their lives will never be the same again.

Downsized: Season 2 Episode 3 Personal Property


In Episode 3, Andy (Conan McCarty) goes door-to-door with his self-help program The E Trinity and discovers that his ex-wife Priscilla (Meredith Zinner) is selling off their property in a House Sale.

Written and directed by Daryn Strauss, Downsized is a made-for-the-web ensemble dramedy about the extremes people go to when faced with an economic crash. The critically acclaimed series, told in the mosaic style of Magnolia with the dark humor of Nurse Jackie, follows the lives of several New Yorkers as they try to balance work, love and their checkbooks post-economic crisis.

Nominated as Best Web Comedy by Clicker.com in 2010 and an Official Selection at the Cologne Conference 2010 in Germany along with HBO's Treme and AMC's Mad Men, Downsized is also one of the few scripted web series granted a partnership with YouTube.

Video Game Reunion 14

What is a view?



http://twitter.com/iawtv/statuses/72846795251785729

It appears from the tweet above that the IAWTV Standards Committee is having a discussion with the organization membership about the controversial issue of view counts. Over the past couple of years we have seen some very heated discussions about how video views should be counted. Technically we should be talking about "video plays" since the mere sight of a video could technically be considered a "view" going by the description of the word on Wikipedia. That aside, what is considered a view has a fundamental role in the ability to sell adds against a video property.

Paid Distribution Becomes a Mainstay of Web Series

http://gigaom.com/video/paid-distribution-becomes-a-mainstay-of-web-series/


So, what is a view? Most rational people would consider a view to be the absorption of some tangible meaning from the content of the video. We do not know the exact number but Youtube appears to consider a view something between 30 and 50 percent of the video. While this means the viewer has not absorbed the entire content it is reasonable to expect that they have more than a passing interest in the video and have watched enough to grasp at least some of its meaning. Of course every video creator hopes the viewer will watch their video to the end but that does not always happen for a number of reasons so the Youtube approximation seems fair.

On the other hand some consider a view to be when the video starts to play. Seems a little absurd right? So why do that. Well it creates a higher view count that can be used to sell the project to advertisers. Don't worry about the deception, they say. We will get funding for your web series, they claim in order to get others to buy into this crazy scam. This definition is further complicated by the presence of prerolls, autoplays and so called "paid views" whose primary purpose is to get the viewer to watch the preroll advertizment without any concern as to whether they watch or enjoy the actual content being promoted.

So the question is: where will the IAWTV come down on this issue. Well they appear to have a Standards Committee working on the issue but to date they have not solicited any public feedback so we can only guess. Most IAWTV discussions take place on a private discussion board so we can only hope that the discussion there has been fair, balanced and reasonable and truly reflects a meaning to the word view that has some authentic meaning to the general public who is doing the viewing.



UPDATE: Reaction from paul kontonis of the IAWTV

@modelmotion our public is the #IAWTV membership and that is who this organizations serves


@modelmotion standards committee engages with industry, membership, reps from key stakeholders in the most responsible way possible #iawtv

The one certainty is that their lives will never be the same again.

MIKE RELM - THE DOCTOR WHO REMIX

Google Chrome: Lady Gaga


Lady Gaga builds one of the world's largest fan bases by using the web to talk directly and openly to her community.

This film celebrates Lady Gaga's special and unmediated relationship with her fans, the Little Monsters. The making of this film is a demonstration of the power of the web in its own right. The entire project, beginning with Lady Gaga's shoot in NYC on May 8th, to shipping materials to the television networks for air, took 10 days. Within hours of the release of her new single "Edge of Glory" on May 9th, fans began uploading videos on YouTube, making the song their own by dancing to it, singing it and playing it on all kinds of instruments. Lady Gaga then posted a message on her website asking for more videos to be used in the film project. Fans responded within minutes and uploaded hundreds more videos. Back in the editing room, in real time as fan videos streamed in, editors were putting them into the film. The film was completed on May 18th in time to air during Lady Gaga's performance on the season finale of Saturday Night Live, and to also live on the web forever.

I would also like to thank Phil and Shane for their help, guidance and all-around awesomeness.
Ok, so I haven't slept yet so I should probably go to bed.
