Social Media Breakfast Ottawa #4 coverage coming

I attended Social Media Breakfast Ottawa #4 yesterday.  It was a panel discussion about online communities moderated by Jen Evans (Founder & Chief Strategist, Sequentia Environics) and featured Luc Lévesque (Founder & General Manager, TravelPod — whom I worked with at BCE Emergis/Bell Security Solutions), Gérard Métrailler (Sr. Director, Product Management, Graphics, Corel) and Ian Skerrett (Director of Marketing, Eclipse Foundation).

Historically, I’ve publish a podcast that covers the SMB event on the same day it occurs.  I can only imagine the surprise of the SMB Ottawa crowd that I haven’t published the show, yet.  It is coming.  I have some client deliverables that I’m working on so look for the podcast to be published this weekend.

Producer’s Commentary – Making online video interactive

Mark Blevis sound connectionsHave you ever checked out the special features on a DVD you purchased or rented? Many of them come with some form of commentary which allow you to listen to the Producer, Director or Actors — or a combination thereof — talk about how the movie was put together.

This is my first attempt at delivering a special feature commentary of my own and comes on request from Daniel Johnson Jr. to provide commentary on the Social Media Breakfast podcast I produced called Making online video interactive.

If you would like to hear commentary on a particular episode I have produced, send me an email (markblevis@gmail.com) or call my community hotline (+1.206.350.6487) and tell me which one you’d like to hear.

Making online video interactive

It was standing room only at the offices of Overlay.TV today for the second Social Media Breakfast Ottawa. The presenter, Rob Lane, President and CEO of Overlay.TV, shared how his company is turning the passive video consumption experience into one of engagement with viewers in the online world.

This podcast features excerpts of Rob’s presentation as well as comments from some of the participants of the event — including Bryan Person, founder of the Social Media Breakfast phenomenon.
