Online Video / Videoblogging

Online video allows "anyone" to create their own internet tv channel. Whether your message is personal, professional, political, or just playful, the tools are now accessible and affordable. And though it's easy compared to creating traditional video media, it still requires a bit of geekiness.

We will take you through the pros and cons of adding video blogging to your online presence, and demonstrate a few sample workflows - from "get it up now!" to building a branded internet tv presence for you and/or your business.

Bring your cameras - even most small "still" cameras will take decent video clips these days.
