Jenkins is a very very smart guy on media users
If you don't know about how people are using media these days, you might as well make steam engines from the 19th century for the 21st. Learn some media literacy by watching this video.

Colin nails it, again
Gives more great advice on shooting storytelling video. There are a lot of elements to take into consideration when shooting and putting a video together. Have a read of his experiences and lessons.

That's an awful lot of video
Guess how much video is uploaded to YouTube every minute? Just a bit less than there are hours in a day. And this is a site that is losing millions of dollars every month.
Goes to show, online video is EXPENSIVE!!!!!

Making Art from the web
Here is a very cool idea to take individual musical elements -that happen to be YouTube videos- and allow a user to create something new. It's called remix and it's pretty damn great.

2009 BOP Judging Video
2009 NPPA BOP Judging from Poynter Institute on Vimeo.
Interesting video about the judging of multimedia and video content for the 2009 Best of Photojournalism. Seems as though many people are capturing interesting looking video, but that storyline is lacking making viewers ask "what's this about?"
Still comes back to the storyline and the narrative. A bunch of pretty images and interesting sounds alone don't make for a quality production. The viewer/user still needs to be grabbed and drawn in to the story.
Brilliance at its best
Here is another great moment in A.P. history. In its quest to become the RIAA of the newspaper industry, the A.P.’s executives and lawyers are beginning to match their counterparts in the music industry for cluelessness.

Sweet Music Video Mashup
Really well done remix and mashup of existing videos into a new one. Wish I had half the skill and forethought to pull something like this off. There are seven other vids on the site. Have a look.

Jon Stewart's Moral Majority
Here's a really interesting column from The Week talking about how Jon Stewart could possibly be the most influential television personality after the build up to and subsequent dismantling of Jim Cramer.
It's a good read, and if you haven't watched any of the Stewart vs. CNBS/Cramer stuff, you should. Very interesting how the comedian has had to take over as the window to the deeper issues that have wrought havoc with mainstream media.
How'd all this start? Watch these below:
The Beginning
In Cramer we Trust
The Personality Clash
The Battle Previewed
Then the three-part Finale above.

POYi Documentary Project Winners
The Roanoke Times beats out the likes of Los Angeles Times and National Geographic for first place. Lots of other interesting outlets in the honorable mentions.
Will have to come back to this and get a better sense of all these productions. Too much to look at right now, holy crap.

Documentary Advertising, the future?
Pretty well done production from Honda. The cinematography is nice and the lessons behind the veil of the ad are good too. So do you feel like watching an eight minute video ad makes you want to consider buying a Honda the next time you need a car?

Stewart calls out the media so easily AND so well
CNBC's Rick Santelli – the "reporter" that went ape on the trading floor complaining about bailouts – was supposed to be a guest on The Daily Show, but was a no show. Well, like when McCain bailed on Letterman, you don't bail on high profile talk show hosts. Jon Stewart opens up a can of whoop @ss on Santelli and the entire network. Still find it amazingly saddening that it takes a comedian and parody show to reveal any freaking honesty in the media-on-the-media realm about issues that are impacting every single one of us, everyday now.

Web 3.0?
Pretty interesting tool under development at Mozilla for better web usage. Should be interesting to see the lines start to blur more and more between web spaces.
