Meet The Vloggers - Midwest: Part II
Part two from Feedburner at Meet the Vloggers - Midwest. I have nearly fifteen minutes of footage to edit and post from them, so expect a few more in the next few days.
DIY week
I took the lens off of one of my Holga cameras and put it on my Nikon D70 dSLR. You can see a few test shots here.
Then I took the lens off of one of my Argus C3 cameras and put it on the lensless Holga body. We have to wait to see the results from that camera, since I need to shoot the whole roll and develop it.
I also made a case for my Nintendo DS games, out of a mint tin…
It currently holds eight games, but I can recut some foam at a later date so that it can hold up to twelve games.
Meet The Vloggers - Midwest: Part I
This video is part one of the Meet the Vloggers presentation, and part one Feedburner portion of the event.
The second Meet The Vloggers - Midwest took place at the Apple Store on Michigan Avenue in Chicago on May 20, 2006. Speakers included: Chuck Olsen from Minnesota Stories, Richard from The Richard Show, Bill from Lo-Fi Saint Louis and John and Justin from Feedburner.
Prior to the MTV presentation was a Node 101 workshop. The videobloggers that were on-hand to help teach visitors about videoblogging and to answer any questions included: Mason Dixon, Doug Meade, David Meade, and me.
More video blogs from the event will be available at ChicagoVideoBloggers.com.
JstreetRADIO
JstreetRADIO broadcasts out of Round Lake Heights, IL every Thursday night from 8-10pm CST on WRLR 98.3 FM. The show brings you music and interviews with some of the area’s independent and underground musicians. If you’re not in the Lake County area, you can listen to the show live on the station’s website or you can listen to it after the fact by subscribing to the podcast [feed/iTunes].
I was at the station last night to help out — answer phones, etc. In addition to the live show, most of the on-air interviews are recorded and edited into an approx. 45 minute podcast. Why should you care? Because I’m the one that “hosts” the podcast and edits it together. That’s why.
