Ready, Set, Launch

September 15th, 2009

Many of the large brands we know in today’s corporate world were built on big launches through TV, radio, and print ads. Billions of dollars were spent on telling the world that their products were a must have in everyone’s lives. Well those days appear to be long gone because I can’t remember the last time I saw a 30 second TV commercial for the 250 million+ community that is Facebook. In fact you are likely on your profile page right now (on another browser tab) so if you wouldn’t mind could you please tell your friends that you can’t wait to produce entertaining videos with individuals from across the world very soon on Spidvid, thanks!

We aim to have a very soft launch with no live events or expensive ad campaigns, but through social media, the press, and reaching influeners within the video production community. For our public beta launch (later this year/early next year) it would be great to share some drinks with those who share our passion about what the future of the video production landscape will look like in the next 3-5 years.

We originally planned on spreading the word last week but want to wait until our What Is Spidvid? video has been fully produced and is squarely set on our homepage. We believe in the quote “you only get one chance to make a good first impression” and feel that capturing people’s attention with a quality video is the top way to do that. If it wasn’t then I think we would have never developed Spidvid in the first place.

We expect to start sharing Spidvid’s existance next week as we polish everything on the outside as well as on the inside. Our goal is to ensure a positive first experience for the community we can’t wait to start building, learning from, and growing with.

Podcast Show Launching Soon

September 5th, 2009

Over the last few days there have been lengthy discussions taking place with podcast hosts about helping us start an audio show. This show will feature conversations on how social, connective, and collaborative tools are redefining the traditional video production model.

There is still no name for this show so if you would like to voice your opinion on what you think would work well, then by all means contact us with your ideas.

The ideal length for the show will be 10-20 minutes because we want pure gold with no filler, and want to respect our audience’s time.

Look for the first episode in about a month from now (or possibly sooner), and be sure to save room on your iPod for what should be a remarkable show.
