Hello, Kostas and me discussed of a video of sort to promote the OSC ('openSUSE Conference, September) De : Kostas Koudaras

...

...
Ok, so my thought is to take small videos of ambassadors calling people to the oSC in their native language

it's a sort of "I'm a geecko" video So we first need to know if you find this usefull? If so, we will need to have as many ambassadors as possible making videos (more on the technical points later) But we also need reviewer to check the videos (to prevent unappropriate contents). The best way should be to have a member check them... given as many langages as possible are wanted we need also OSC logos, posters, to make a beginning and an ending, as we need some sort of sound or music (free, of course) for them. we &lso need a proposal for a short text, to be used as basis, variants being possible I send this to multimedia, ambassadors and marketting, but I think final discussion of how to make and store videos should be held on ambassador list and potential technicals around the hole video making on multimedia, so please post on the relevant list thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help@opensuse.org

Background music would be good, but the video should say something more. By way of greeting: "Hi, I am a lizard, my name is and I am from ..." As a central content area, which is very important that we identify in the openSUSE project. Of course, all this with the time set for the video -- Saludos, cheperobert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help@opensuse.org

+1 I think this would be a fun project. One suggestion, which I'm sure you've already thought of - make it non year specific in the Ambassador calling sections so that we can potentially reuse the material for future osc.

Awesome idea. Make a quick how-to on a wiki page and get an article to news.o.o (which I can help write if you want). And how about ANY openSUSE person do this instead of 'only' the ambassadors? Then we put em on the openSUSE youtube channel and show them on the openSUSE website at random :D

Ok I can make a how to immediately but I am wondering where in the wiki to put it. After that an article will be on the way :-)

...

And how about ANY openSUSE person do this instead of 'only' the ambassadors?

I agree partially mostly because of an idea I just had. I propose to take shots from Ambassadors to make a 2-3-4 minute video as an add and then let's challenge all people with a contest to create a home video calling people to the conference and give some kind of a prize(a Geeko plush or something...) to the one that will have the more views on YouTube by lets say 11 of September. Because of the contest people maybe will try harder to promote their video shot. That way we can win the promotion we want and the one who made the video a prize ;-).

...

Then we put em on the openSUSE youtube channel and show them on the openSUSE website at random :D

Just made a sample video from my mobile(http://youtu.be/iPB9_teC-4M)it is only in Greek so... I think it would be more fancy, instead of saying the same think once in English and once in our Native language to insert Subtitles with the English text. What do you think about that? Jdd is that doable? Allan, yes we could do that we will just leave out word like 2011 and Nuremberg(which I mention in my video) Let me know what do you think Kostas -- http://opensuse.gr http://amb.opensuse.gr http://own.opensuse.gr http://warlordfff.tk me I am not me ------- Time travel is possible, you just need to know the right aliens -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help@opensuse.org

I am a geeko, that the video I did last year that was show at the OSC.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKH_MxTI-mU

Oh that, yeah, how I could have forgotten that? My mind is toasted, sorry ;-) Basically this year we are talking about something a bit different. We are talking about calling people to actually come to the oSC, more like advertising the oSC. The one you are talking about was to show in the conference.
