Since these were rendered in extreme widescreen I compressed them both into one video. The left audio channel is for the song “World Town” and the right the final version of “Bang”. Listen to them separately with headphones.

I know we’ve all been taught to have a beginning, middle, and then end with a strong conclusion, but in web video if you’re going to end up with a 5+ minute discussion, you’d do better to structure your content like an article. Think upside down pyramids. Tell me what I’m going to hear about so that I’ll consider sticking around.</p> <p>Otherwise, this is fascinating. Beside all of the things I didn’t know about tea, I like that Kevin is focusing on a niche topic that has a community with a lot of passionate people. Besides his regular audience, he’s sure to convert new devoted viewers by sharing a passion that people can relate to.</p> <p>Via: <b><a href="http://clintus.tumblr.com/post/93159337/types-of-tea-on-vimeo-via-vimeo-an-introduction">clintus</a>,<a href="http://vimeo.com/3899443">Vimeo</a></b></p>http://www.mdfvideo.com/post/94537772http://www.mdfvideo.com/post/94537772Thu, 09 Apr 2009 11:20:51 -0400teakevin rosediggonline videovideoblogging<p>Oof, comments are all broken (at least on Firefox).
