Verbal Updates

Jason's Update

  • Hacks posts - didn't get anything online for the past two weeks. We must fix that. Run idea by Havi and make it happen.
  • More video content? What are our blockers?
    • [sole] Editing / post-production is a huge time sink. Can we hand this off to a third party? [jason] I'll look into that.
    • [jensimmons] I do all of my own video editing, but I do use Jim Metzendorf of http://www.audiopodcastguide.com/ to do sound editing when needed. I can also refer folks to a few other people. Ryanne Hodson and Jay Dedman are great video editors. http://www.ryanishungry.com I'm pinging them to see if they have availability. If not, I know a lot of other people we could consider.
