  • [Video] A Drive Through the Snow and Musical Accompaniment.


    This is just a video I made driving through the snow in Little Rock on 1-10-11 the day after our “Mini” Snow Storm. I played my new song “New York & Light” and the cover I did of “Silent Night” on the CD player as accompaniment. I haven’t made enough HD videos with my iPhone4 so I wanted to start. Then I started playing with iMovie and there’s some fun things you can do in there. So it’s mostly just play and experimentation, but you might find the scenery pretty. Hope you enjoy the song too!

  • Check Out this Amazing HD Video Tour of CES 2010 with Robert Scoble

    This was done by Michael Sean Wright, of NiceFishFilms and Marc Ostrick, as they follow Scoble through CES in his quest to find the perfect equipment to build his own HD streaming studio. Like they say in the film this is really like a quest, a quest of merging “old media power with the heart of a technologist.” Through the journey we get to see some of the coolest cameras and displays at CES 2010 and get a feel for the conference as a whole. It’s really exciting. Robert Scoble is the No.1 influencer or “trust agent,” as Chris Brogan has termed it, and has the No.1 credibility, on the internet for technology, web services and social media. Louis Gray and Leo Laporte are a very close second. I would highly recommend following him, at least on Twitter if nothing else, even if you aren’t in the field of technology as I am not (I’m a writer and musician) as he will keep you informed on the coolest and most relevant trends. I have found so many valuable services (Soundcloud, Mylikes, to name just two) that are relevant and add value to my daily life just by following Scoble. He makes the best tech related videos on the internet. If Scoble interviews them, you know they are legit. Don’t worry about if you catch every one of his tweets. (He tweets a lot.) Just dip in and out of the stream and your guaranteed to find some serendipity.

    This video is originally here at Eguiders.com, a beautiful looking blog, maybe one of the most beautiful I’ve seen, and worth following two, if you are interested in this paradigm of convergence and the overthrow of old media by new media, in other words as Time referred to as “You.”

  • An Interview with MovieClips.com by Jesse Stay

    Here’s an interview by Jesse Stay with the founders of MovieClips.com talking about the site. This interview was done on Cinch, an audio social network.

    Search over 12,000 clips from six studios

    from their about page:

    we at MOVIECLIPS.com are movie fans – no, we are movie freaks! We love movies. We love to see movies. We love to talk about movies. We love to discover, rediscover and relive movies. For this reason, we have createdmovieclips.com – to bottle that insane, enthusiastic energy and share it with the world. With over 12,000 movie clips, you can search, find, view, discuss and share scenes from your favorite movies.

    for a year, the team at MOVIECLIPS has worked tirelessly to collect clips and make them completely searchable by actor, title, genre, occasion, action, mood, character, theme, setting, prop, and even dialogue. This makes it simple to find a scene fast. We are hopeful that you’ll use this powerful search to discover new movies. For that reason, we’ve included links with each clip to easily buy or rent the feature-length movie.

    we want to thank the Hollywood studios who’ve worked closely with us to turn this dream into a reality. No longer do we as fans have to resort to piracy in order to find, view, and share one’s favorite scenes. No longer do we as fans have to wade through mismarked user-generated crap to find the “real” scene. No longer do we as fans have to put up with low quality, lame viewing experiences that have been our only option.

    MOVIECLIPS beta is here now! We are legal and free to every user. As beta users, we are counting on your participation: spread the word, give us feedback, and recommend more of your favorite scenes. The uploading process takes time, but we wanted to give everyone a taste of what we have before the holidays, and we will be uploading thousands of scenes over the next couple of months.

    MOVIECLIPS.com – a site for movie fans made by movie fans.
