Lamar Morgan 954-603-7901 | | I suppose it is fair to say that most interactive podcasts are audio in nature. But, I have seen some video podcasts. What I have not witnessed is video podcasts where the person being interviewed was at a different location than the person hosting the podcast. Is that even being done?
I have seen numerous Youtube videos where you heard the voice of the host off-camera you saw the guest talking on-screen. But, this was not a talk show with guest callers into the program.
Well, if this is being done, I would like to know how it is being done. Are folks able to use the features of Skype and Camtasia Studio to pull something like this off successfully? Or, are their different tools that are needed?

I'm not exactly clear what a podcast is.
For Towncrier's purposes we facilitate an interactive broadcast where the viewers can participate without requiring any downloads or subscriptions and the 'cast is archived for later viewing. More Here
Additionally; We can also do a split screen 'cast where viewers can see and hear both host and guest. (Again without requiring guest or viewer downloads or subscriptions).
Usually we host archives on our own resources which lets us present some other ideas/promos when the archive is viewed while at others .... we'll select a Youtube or Metacafe.
My "Welcome to Ryze" is archived on Metacafe.
I'm becoming more interested in Metacafe since they have a programme that pays posters and I discovered that one had pocketed over $100,000 in just under 2 years. More in my Blog. Click Here
We're using Stickam for streaming the broadcast and while it's not exactly what I would like; It is a solid platform and we're well satisfied.

Dave Jackson | | Unfortunately I'm under a Do Not Disclose agreement, but there are systems beta testing the ability to record a video interview with each person in a different room, in a different country, etc.
It's on its way...

Lamar Morgan 954-603-7901 | | Dave,
I have Camtasia Studio on my computer. I also have a webcam and Skype. Therefore, I could call someone, record the call and upload a video to a site like Youtube or as a part of course to PodClass.com. But, there is the aspect of bringing in an audience and being able to control the audience and record the video at the same time. Is that what you are working on? Is that what Teddy Towncrier is already doing? In both cases, I doubt we are talking about Web 2.0 innovation, where you get a free service in exchange for the content uploaded. This is a straight-forward service, correct?

| Jun 02, 2008 4:35 pm | | Questions About Video Podcasting - Mogulus and A Cheat Way | # |
Penny Haynes | | Go to http://www.Mogulus.com. There you can do multi web cam recordings with people anywhere in the world, just as if you were doing a news show. Very cool.
Also, if you and the interviewee both have a webcam recorder, you can both record yourselves at the same time and then they can send you their recording, and you can edit them together. If you don't have a multitrack video editing system, where you can lay them on one track and you on the other simultaneously, a cheat way to do it would be for each of you to record each segment as a separate video, i.e.:
You record yourself doing the introduction and asking the first question. You stop recording and save that as lm-01. Then they record themselves with the answer (let's say it was Teddy) and save it as tt-01. You do that until the interview is over. It is not quite as fluent, but you end up with a really good quality video with no one talking over the other person, and you can paste them together in Camtasia very easily.
Just an idea. :)

Thanks, Penny:Â Â Â Â I'll gladly defer to your expertise ....
However; I'm hesitant to use a Webcam for recording due to synch & latency issues.
My preference would be for each side to record themselves with a Camcorder and edit/splice afterwards.
I've already created a dual screen viewing set-up which will take input from geographically dispersed cams and diplay host and guest side by side at one url. Â Â Â Â Again; Latency issues are noticeable.
If you would like to kick the tires ... Just holler.
Even though Mogulus is touted to be the cat's whiskers and some broadcasters are cranking out impressive listener numbers; I'm not enamoured with it since I can't get it to work worth a darn.
BTW.   Something's different in your pic.  Is that a new hairstyle?

Hi folks.
My default OS is XP Pro and I tried Mogulus in IE, Firefox and Safari all to no avail.
When I switched OS to Vista. Mogulus ran sweeter than a new Bentley.

Leesa Barnes | | Dave, shame on you for being so secretive. How dare you keep a lady waiting ;) Can't wait to hear about the launch of this new service. Do share once it's up and running.
To Lamar's question, check out http://www.oovoo.com. This service is just like Skype, the only difference is that you speak to each other via webcams. You can then record it and do whatever with it, including podcasting.
Rob Schultz also does some split screen interviews. His website is http://www.interviewproductsecrets.com/ and you can see what he did for my friend Milana Leshinsky at http://www.richcoachpoorcoach.com/newcoachingmanifesto.com/blog/?p=11.
Not sure what type of technology or software he used to do this, so I can't advise.
I use Camtasia for my video production. I've used it for almost 7 years now, so it's all 2nd nature, but you can follow Penny's advice to record a split screen or try out ooVoo.
Thanks,
Leesa Barnes

Skype can be used for face to face video conversation as can Yahoo and MSN if both parties have the required software loaded.
It's even possible to have 3 ways using Skype MSN & Yahoo in the same video conversation.
Asking the other party to load and learn strange software is frequently a stumbling block and one that I prefer to avoid.
For that reason we created our own and each party simply logs in and starts broadcasting with both being seen and heard, by viewers, side by side on the same screen.
Optionally; Chat can be activated to accomodate viewer participation.
Without any muss or fuss, unfamiliar downloads or anybody caring how it works.

Hey folks.
Just checked out a few live Telecasts over at Mogulus.
I checked into the Ron Paul broadcast. The package is pretty neat and while not cable TV quality the synchonization isn't too bad.
The picture becomes a bit pixelated when expanded to full screen but is better than The BBC archives.
Now that I have it working; I may be able to use this somehow.

Lamar Morgan 954-603-7901 | | Leesa,
I went to www.oovoo.com. You can have up to six people on a video call. But, does the video download and can you upload it elsewhere? You see, you can upload audio clips to Talkshoe.com without having recorded them on Talkshoe. If you can upload video recorded elsewhere and showcase that as well, I think that would be awesome. Why? Because I have folks on Talkshoe who have chosen to follow via RSS feed my program. Every time I record a show that show is automatically sent to their computer via RSS feed. But, that is not all. Each program is automatically uploaded to the iTunes Music Store's Podcast Directory. I don't know if video clips are just too much bandwidth to be allowed on Talkshoe. But, if they are not, I think that would be a wonderful place to put them. Even if you could not place the actual file on the Talkshoe server, if you could at least place the link to the video site somewhere on the Talkshoe show page, I think that would be wonderful.
