Every week, on every Wednesday, on every computer that reads the Indy Mogul blog; MAKE (Out) Wednesdays will be around. I'll hunt Make's podcasts for what I feel will be the best tip for YOU, the independent Internet video creator. Because why spend money on prebuilt things, when you can construct them yourself, with love … and hugs …...

On The Lot: Episode 13 (Fox Television)

POSTED BY , 01 August 2007 | PERMALINK

At this point, it’s nice, because "On The Lot" can finally breathe.

Yes, it does know it won’t return after the final episode, but it at least knows it will make it to the final episode. Does that mean it can give the finger to selling out and let the filmmakers do whatever they want? Hell no. This week’s episode, which calls itself "road’" week is merely advertising for the shows top sponsor,...

POSTED BY , 31 July 2007 | PERMALINK

Boston 2007 Vidblog from Jon Devine and Vimeo.

While I was on a wild adventure during spring break with my housemates; my friends Max, Alex, Jake and Jon took a trip to Boston. After months of careful editing (and careful breaks), Jon showed us the video. I really like the soundtrack to this and I think it fits the cold Boston scenery and aquarium shots really...

Someone Elses Home Movies from Ian Lucero and Vimeo.

There are tons and tons and tons and TONS of film reels and video tapes that no one will ever see again. Maybe they were lost, stolen, or just completely disregarded. But, either way, there is still tons of untapped footage on a cornucopia of family events. And if no one is around to watch this footage, does...

Kaltura, YouTube for Communists

POSTED BY , 27 July 2007 | PERMALINK

Most of my time on YouTube these days is spent reading through messages from viewers like you! And also viewers NOT like you. One of which was MelisaaJamesons, who gave us a link to her Kaltura page. And my first thought was "What the hell is Kaltura?". And my answer was easily discovered with a quick visit to the land of Kaltura.

As it stands right now, editing videos with footage sent...

Timbervision Clips from ccir601 and Vimeo.

After posting yesterday's Vimeo Vid of the Day, I talked to Ian from The National Parcs (Ryan's video was on his Vimeo page). He let me know about the new project he's working on, The National Parcs. It's an audio/video DVD album that they recorded and shot out in the woods. Which I think is especially cool because of...

Vimeo Vid of the Day, "Freeform "GRASS GROWIN' ON CARS" " by Ryan Crouchman

Freeworm "GRASS GROWIN' ON CARS" from ccir601 and Vimeo.

The second I saw the name of this video, I was instantly reminded of my time in Puerto Rico and how I frequently saw abandoned cars on isolated roadways that had been left behind for years and years. They have a very unique presence, especially with the environment eating them up. It's like reverse global...
