Welcome Back Revver!

Filed under: Revver, TheVideoAwards — Dave @ 8:02 pm

Early on we provided support for Revver and allowed you to partake in the ad revenue sharing program they had. Unfortunately, we had to take it down shortly after because they were still using quicktime and not a flash player. Well good news, they now have flash! So we’re happy to say you can again upload your videos from Revver to TVA. Take a look at our original Revver announcement which discusses the ad revenue sharing a little more clearly.

As usual if you have any issues with posting of videos or have any other suggestions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Thanks!
TVA Team

Yahoo! Has Acquired Jumpcut

Filed under: Video, JumpCut, TheVideoAwards, Yahoo — Dave @ 10:40 am

Wow, this is some interesting news. Jumpcut being only 6 months old has been swallowed by Yahoo!. The news is still new so there isn’t any other details on it. You can see the post on the Yahoo blog and the Jumpcut blog hasn’t made any mention of it yet has a post about it here. I guess we’ll wait to see.

Produce Your Own Semi-Professional Video

Filed under: Video, DownloadSquad — Dave @ 9:39 am

Ryan Carter from Download Squad has written a great article on how you can produce your own video to get your 15 minutes of fame.

…but now I can share my experience with you and the best easy and free ways I found to produce such a video in a day and a half on no budget that looks decent and make customers drool. You don’t need excellent computer skills either, but a little will to learn and a few hours time depending how involved you want this video to be. Take one, marker, action!

Motionbox Gets Funded

Filed under: Video, TheVideoAwards, Motionbox — Dave @ 12:28 pm

Pete at Mashable writes about Motionbox getting funding:

Another video sharing site gets funded: New York startup Motionbox will announce today that they’ve raised $4.2M in Series A funding from Canaan Partners, SAS Investors and ITOCHU Corporation. The cash will be used to build out Motionbox’s technology and for marketing purposes.

That’s great news for Motionbox, but am I missing something or are they lacking the ability to embed these videos on your own site? Not sure how you can possibly distinguish yourself without the ability to spread your videos virally. Not to mention, where’s the RSS?
