Jaki Levy Assistant Organizerthe venue was ideal. 3LD is a leader in the field of Arts and Technology. Given they have a an intensively beautiful video installation setup, it was ideal for a video for the arts meetup. The only drawback was the sound situation. Some of the speakers were hard to hear because of the large space. The free and tasty wine was an AWESOME addition to the meetup. Thanks for setting that up!

Erik GenslerIt was frustrating that the start time for the event was publicized as 7pm and when I got there I saw a sign that says it starts at 7:15pm. Then in actuality the first speaker did not start until 7:45. I thought that did not respect the time of the participants.

David OliverJulia's done a great job again! Excellent venue for the topic at hand (Video for the Arts) and, by and large, a good group of speakers. Good questions from the audience. I wished, however, there was time for a short "panel" given the divergent opinions among the speakers.

Video is one of the most powerful communication tools we have at the moment--both online and off. Did you know YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world right now? That's crazy.
In this meetup session we'll take a look at how cultural organizations can utilize video to connect with audiences, as well as some of the tools and best practices to help them do so.
The speakers are as follows:
Art21 -- Jonathan Munar is the Web Manager at Art21—a non-profit arts organization and producer of a Peabody Award-winning PBS series on contemporary art—where he manages the Art21 Web sites, edits a column on the Art21 blog, and oversees the organization's social media initiatives. Before joining Art21 in 2008, Jonathan was the Website Technology Manager at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
Tendu.tv -- Marc Kirschner is the founder and General Manager of TenduTV, a broadband network delivering dance and dance-related programming to home users on their computers, mobile devices and reaches over 30 million televisions in the US. Kirschner created the concept of digital licensing for choreography and executed the first such licensing deals in the dance industry. Kirschner was recently invited to sit on the advisory board of Dance/NYC, where he will serve as chair of the technology committee.
Arin Crumley -- Putting real life into film, podcasting to extend the narrative, captivating social network audiences, Google mapping the audience demand for a theatrical release and digitally distributing to millions of internet viewers around the world. The pioneering efforts of Arin Crumley haven’t gone unnoticed as Indiewire, MovieMaker, The Wall Street Journal, The Spirit Awards, The Sundance Channel, IFC TV, & many others have jumped into the echo chamber further demonstrating all that new media has to offer.
Blip.tv -- Eric Mortensen joined blip.tv in 2006 as the Director of Content Development, where he oversees discovery of and interaction with new media content creators. As a founder of the pioneering social bookmarking site, linkfilter.net, a prolific blogger and the co-founder of Digital Dissonance — a digital music collaboration created in 1994 and pre-dating the commercial Internet — Mortensen has spent more than fourteen years as a social media innovator and expert.
And possibly one more to be added...
Presentations will begin promptly at 7:15, so please arrive on time. There will be a complimentary wine cocktail hour after the presentations, so be sure to stick around and socialize!
The 3 Legged Dog theater will also feature a video exhibition: “Why Aren’t You Naked?” is a multimedia exhibition presenting an array of provocative still and moving imagery generated from 3-Legged Dog’s prolific experimental productions over the last 13 years.
