LaunchPad Weekly Boost

Before anyone 'jets off' (pun intended) into the wrong direction, I would like to clarify what I meant by 'feedback' regarding the Weekly Boost Webisodes: useful info for someone embarking on this endeavor would be some samples of programmes you like and a comment or two about why you like it...why you watch it, what information you depending on gleaning from it...pooling this information will prove invaluable to a developer like Bill. A successful production will need to be tailored to 'specific needs' within this community ...for example, how would you imagine the content of a 60 sec round up video, delivered weekly would look like... would it be interviews, on-location cutaway shots.... what sort of information would you focus on gathering... would you like to see videos that re-cap an event..? If this Boost Webisode were to be longer than 90 sec ( a TV commercial is 30sec) would you want the option to view segments...? Anyway, just some thoughts, as a producer of video, I'm sure I'm not alone in seeing the potential and value of this tool... all of us getting in here and helping with the 'structure / format' of this addition to our beloved LaunchPad would only benefit us all. Video is such a 'short hand' device to communicate a volume of information. Large companies spend fortunes on this research; that budget is not available to a start-up, so it's us. Some other useful info would be to offer if you watch online video and what makes you click out of it, or stay in it. Please provide links to videos you now watch on a regular basis...Sorry if this sounds like a lecture... intended to help this community endeavor. bye4now, petrushka

Is Bill really fragile? Because he seems to me to be a Lyon of Courage!! I say we really think about what we want to see and tell him! Petrushka

Hi Bill,
Nice touch to the website! I would like to discuss how to have the Smooth Jazz Society featured on the Weekly Boost.

Thanks for the great comments and for joining the community. We will be posting a new webisode next week and will send out a notice each time we post a new one.

Thanks again and keep the comments coming!

Bill -

Definitely a great idea. Adds a lot of vitality and added value to the site. I'm sure that ideas will be flowing soon.

Please let me know how/when I can help.

I definately like how this can add a new dimension. Looking forward the scheduled format? Specific subjects that we can key into? Maybe multiple clips per week that key different industry groups?
Billl, the make-up looks great its the lighting that may be a little suspect. *wink*
