Filmwasters Video Podcast 07 is now online
« on: June 06, 2011, 08:25:01 PM »
"Our seventh video podcast features an extended report from a little insider event in London called, Photographica 2011. Loads of us went along and we had a fantastic time. Before that though the podcast covers Ed's visit to the London Street Photography exhibition at the Museum of London, a nail-biting finish for the Filmwasters Pub Quiz team & a seaside 'photo walk' with Woody the Dog & Leon the Human. Boo ya!

Featuring Ed Wenn, Leon Taylor, Nigel Rumsey & the Filmwasters Photographica Crew."

Woodeeeeeeee!!!  :)

decided to make a playlist of as much of the music off the podcast I could find on spotify (some may be cover versions as the original was not on there) thought I would share it.

I have to agree. Woody stole the show.  :)

Hey Thom...that's a great idea. Thanks for that. And BTW, I meant to call you about this, but I'd like to take the opportunity to thank you publicly for being such a good sport w/ regard to all of the Impossible Project ribbing you got from me. I owe you a drink or two. Thanks for appreciating that I don't really mean it and top marks for sticking to your guns and bringing some TIP film along on the day.

And, to everyone else....it's not just about the bl**dy dog, OK? It's about the revolutionary editing techniques, the insights into photography that no-one else has had, the carefully planned camera angles, the realisation of a concept arrived at through years of deep thinking and the very expensive equipment we use to produce these shows. Throw a cute dog onto the screen and all of the above gets forgotten. It's not even Leon's real dog. "Woody" is a CGI creation. Leon's actual dog is too unsightly for public viewing and usually goes around dressed like this:

Well, I managed to steal a lengthy editing session from my employers last week, but yeah, it's been more difficult than normal to get this one out there.

That's disgusting. I honestly can't believe anyone I'd call a friend would post a picture like that on a forum like this. There's no WAY that was shot on film.

Funniest podcast ever! And subsequent posts about ugly dogs very funny too!! And I have to say, Leon's playful pooch stole the show for me. Especially since he was so excited when they got there and didnt even bother to look over the seat when they were leaving because he was so tired from playing. Awesome! But I also loved seeing all the Filmwaster faces and really enjoyed seeing the second vid from another Photographica.

Good job!

And Woody's such a chatterbox, more like a siamese cat.

That was a really fun podcast. I wish I lived somewhere closer to London, but it seems that I'm moving even further away. Anyway, one day I'll come visit London again :)

I for one am jealous of your Photographica show. The one we have around here is so small and full of junk... dealers bring their unsalable stuff and try to dump it on the market.

Between you and me, Darryl, they're a pretty strange bunch. You're probably much safer keeping your distance  ;)

The best podcast yet.  Woody on the beach--outstanding hound.  I wish that there could be a thread with many more films about photo walks.

Woody is available for weddings, funerals and bar mitzvahs.

Thom - great idea about the playlist.  You've missed the black keys track "act nice and gentle" off tho - it's on spotify.

I'll have a good listen to that when I'm studying tomorrow.

Actually, I had a better idea last night before falling to sleep!
After seeing him run on the video, I was wondering if you ever thought of enrolling him as a seeing-eye dog for the blind? I just thought it would be kinda funny (in a non politically correct way) to see a blind guy trying to keep up in a very Benny Hill way :)

Really excellent job Ed (and Woody), I really enjoyed it. Thanks very much for including the section featuring the quiz that was a fun night, and even better as we won! Brilliant!

Was there any chance that the Mighty Filmwasters would lose a photo quiz?

Hey Jonas, you're 100% right. As a podcast 'consumer' I'm an avid fan of the audio and less so of the video & for exactly the same reason as you. It's hard to find the time to watch 15-25 mins of video, but ironically it seems easier to listen to 60+ mins of audio.

The thing is; it's harder doing the audio podcasts because we have to set up Skype and then arrange a time which is good for all participants - some of whom are calling in from different timezones. Not to mention the editing...again, it's been a big surprise that editing the videos is quicker than the audio.

The weird thing is that - with a couple of exceptions - most of the video podcasts have 'outsold' the audio podcasts in terms on downloads, so clearly most of the FW audience is happy with the video format. Which is another surprise to me.

How many surprises can one man take?  ;D

Anyway, it has recently occurred to me that we could do the audio podcasts in a magazine style (like the videos) rather than always having to have a panel discussion. That might help with some of the logistics. Stay tuned & thanks very much for the feedback.

glad that you took it to heart, ed :)

Not to mention the editing...again, it's been a big surprise that editing the videos is quicker than the audio.

I can actually understand this and it was something that I thought about when posting. I guess it's easier to edit when you have the visual feed and you can speed things up.
And I like that quality has gotten better with the videos! kudos to that :)

Really? Glad to hear it :) Though if I download a podcast one time (or twice with the work computer), I listen to them a whole lot more(!) I think I've listened to episode 13 to 15 more than I can count now! Most 15 because I relly like the discussion but I think that 13 is catching up as I've got it on my cellphone and listen to it when I go to sleep sometimes. That Jobo sneeze always gets me chuckling :D

Sounds great! I'll be looking forward to seeing how it works out :)

Ah yes. Booze. Much of this was edited whilst tipsy, so maybe it won't work for you quite as well when you sober up  ;D
