Are podcasts (only audio) or slidedecks (no audio) included in this project? I'm not precisely sure what types of media "video" includes. 15:53:49 #info 2. Are the videos strictly 'how-tos' and tutorials or will we consider any submission that talks about fedora in some way? 15:54:15 #info 3. I know we will have broad categories for browsing, but what about someone who is specifically looking for a video on how to set up their xx for xx with xx? I.e. Is there going to be a way to search the library? 15:54:18 eof 15:54:26 ! 15:54:30 ! 15:54:51 niteshnarayanlal ur turn 15:55:00 graphite6, 2nd point 15:55:25 if we have an howto video like how to use a particular application in fedora 15:55:32 or how to install a thing 15:56:03 then I think we are referring to fedora related videos only when we come to how to 15:56:19 another thing which I would like to add is 15:56:21 as I was discussing with graphite6 tatica MarkDude and others , we were thinking to have an intro video (really short one )but has to be really catchy 15:56:25 eof 15:56:31 ! 15:56:32 FranciscoD ur turn 15:56:38 Addressing each point 15:56:43 1. Are slide decks = presentations, like pdfs? If so, I wouldn't include them. Podcasts are already in motion iirc. 15:56:55 2. Videos can be anything related to Fedora 15:57:02 rather, anything related to FOSS 15:57:13 x 15:57:40 3. We don't have a very advanced search tool yet. I'm hoping the hosting location, such as archive.org, will have advanced search 15:57:50 * FranciscoD goes to check archive.org 15:57:52 eof 15:57:54 bckurera: ur turn 15:58:19 FranciscoD said what I wanted to share 15:58:23 i ll add later thanks 15:58:25 eof 15:58:26 http://www.archive.org/advancedsearch.php 15:58:32 * FranciscoD sits back down 15:58:42 ok zoltanh721 is urs now 15:59:23 zoltanh721: ? 15:59:25 Mostly what is Francisc has said but for search I would like to suggest update of our search possibility 15:59:26 sorry, my house just lost electricity, I'm back online now 15:59:38 within start.fpo 15:59:48 if it's possible somehow 15:59:51 ! 15:59:52 eof 16:00:10 ok then let me say fast what I think of that questions 16:01:09 1. I would not exclude podcasts sound there (there will be not a lot) presentations, when the are done as video and are after the guidelines, they should be taken 16:01:36 +1 presentations done as videos 16:01:42 +1 16:01:48 2. there was already a discussion about that and so far I see there was a section for videos lik "from fudcon" and such stuff 16:02:10 3. there was the possibility tagging the videos already discussed 16:02:22 FranciscoD: ur turn 16:02:27 #action Talk to websites team about having a fedora videos search function on start.fp.o 16:02:30 eof ;) 16:02:52 #action FranciscoD Talk to websites team about having a fedora videos search function on start.fp.o 16:02:59 XD 16:03:02 ok then next on agenda 16:03:08 ! 16:03:52 all topics are covered they had someone who take care of it 16:04:21 there are 2 unsigned open: Formalize a Step by Step guide on how summit a video Formalize a Step by Step guide on how to make a fedora video 16:04:43 sorry, having internet problems here, reading logs now 16:04:45 niteshnarayanlal: ur turn 16:05:05 I was saying about the intro thing , if anyone interested to take it up 16:05:16 or else MarkDude is willing to do that 16:05:40 eof 16:05:43 ! 16:06:12 niteshnarayanlal: so far I see tatica liked to prepare something for that, but cant ask her because she isnt there ;) 16:06:25 FranciscoD ur turn 16:06:36 gnokii, I really liked the ways http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmvCpR45LKA is done 16:06:44 * niteshnarayanlal sits back 16:07:04 my page already takes care of the step by step guides, doesnt it? 16:07:11 of both? 16:07:18 eof 16:07:30 ! 16:07:51 ! 16:08:00 ok graphite6 was the answers already enough for you? 16:08:13 yes 16:08:25 ok niteshnarayanlal 16:08:28 one more part to my tasks though 16:08:45 * niteshnarayanlal was thinking that we may have a video for the guidelines too namely explaining step by step procedure to submit the video 16:09:08 niteshnarayanlal: been discussed above 16:09:15 ! 16:09:15 FranciscoD: +1 16:09:43 niteshnarayanlal: eof? 16:09:47 sorry 16:09:48 eof 16:10:01 mojavelinux1 ur turn now 16:10:27 so it seems like we are talking about two different types of intro videos 16:10:43 one as discussed above is the final output of having a step by step guide to submit 16:10:55 the other is a call to action to come submit videos, which is what the xda developer videos is like 16:11:13 i like that video style, but the tone of the voice is way too sharp 16:11:23 eof 16:11:36 ok graphite6 16:11:45 Started a draft for the email requesting submissions (would be something people could use on their blogs) 16:11:47 +1 for the last point mojavelinux1 16:11:52 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Graphitefriction/Videos 16:11:58 ! 16:12:05 it needs work 16:12:26 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Graphitefriction/Videos 16:12:29 and to be added/completed when submission guidelines donw 16:12:33 * mojavelinux1 just wanted to add link to minutes 16:12:45 guys 16:12:49 brb 16:12:56 eof 16:13:07 * FranciscoD back 16:13:24 #info graphite6 prepared a call for video text https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Graphitefriction/Videos 16:13:38 FranciscoD: ur turn 16:13:48 I just want to put a clarification in the logs: 16:14:10 When we say "intro", we're referring to the "template" that we will add to each video. 16:14:14 "Branding" if you will. 16:14:57 Lets not refer to the videos related to calling for submissions and the how to make a video as intro videos. It will create confusion. 16:15:15 "How to make a fedora video" is a good enough, clear name for such a video 16:15:19 +1 16:15:24 +1 16:15:25 which will also have an intro 16:15:33 so I hope you see the difference 16:15:34 +1 F 16:15:34 clearly 16:15:35 eof 16:15:42 +1 16:15:43 +1 16:15:58 * FranciscoD wishes he got these many +1s on g+ XD 16:16:16 on the intro I hope tatica comes not up with such fancy stuff, it makes it only harder to produce videos 16:16:35 so time for open floor 16:16:49 ! 16:17:05 FranciscoD: shoot 16:17:20 i dont think the complexity of what tatica comes up will matter 16:17:55 Ultimately, the video submitted will be appended at the back of the intro (customized to the particular video) and then published 16:18:09 although we need to do all of this and confirm each step 16:18:23 we are still looking at the entire process theoritically 16:18:31 and theory and experimentation do differ :) 16:18:32 eof 16:19:02 s/experimentation/practice 16:19:34 gnokii: open floor then? 16:19:40 mom 16:19:55 where? 16:20:07 * FranciscoD looks around 16:20:09 #link tatica take a look what jimmac prepared for the openSUSE screencasts once http://gitorious.org/opensuse/art/trees/master/screencasts 16:20:11 :) 16:20:15 so now open floor 16:20:20 ! 16:20:25 FranciscoD: shoot 16:20:30 Here's the thing 16:20:43 I'd like everyone in the project to go ahead and actually make a video 16:20:50 #task *everyone* make a video 16:20:52 why? 16:20:52 +1 16:20:57 well, testing 16:21:04 +1 16:21:05 ! 16:21:07 +1 I've been itching to do that since I first heard the idea 16:21:07 we need the entire process documented, streamlined 16:21:21 if more people make videos 16:21:28 on different hardware, software 16:21:29 http://zoltanh721.fedorapeople.org/Fedora%20-%20Join%20(640x480).mp4.tar.xz 16:21:36 with different styles, 16:21:46 we'll run into more issues before the public begins to flood us 16:22:03 and this will certainly help us later, certainly prevent panic 16:22:08 also might give us a FAQ page 16:22:14 lots of advantages 16:22:21 so please, pick a topic, make a video 16:22:27 ! 16:22:29 #info document each step 16:22:34 #info document each issue 16:22:43 #info document each solution 16:22:48 and the rest 16:22:49 eof 16:22:59 mojavelinux1: ur trun 16:23:02 turn 16:23:37 +1 to all of FranciscoD's steps 16:23:42 I think we should have an ideas page, just a running list of video topics we might want to create and that will help give people an idea of where to start 16:24:11 +1 idea dump 16:24:17 ok, think both have right so mojavelinux1 would u prepare such a list? 16:24:25 for instance, bullet points might be "how to use workspaces", "how to setup empathy and log into Fedora IRC channels" 16:24:51 yep, I will create a page for video submission ideas 16:25:22 #action mojavelinux1 prepare a list with topics for videos 16:25:22 and these are specific ideas, not just categories 16:25:37 quite a few ideas here already, can pick from here mojavelinux1 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Classroom#Suggest_a_class 16:25:38 get's people thinking, helps us share ideas so we don't have to beat our head thinking about what to screencast 16:25:39 eof 16:25:58 #action all pic a video from that list and do a video for testing the process of doing videos 16:26:34 cool, okay, I can add to that list 16:26:59 * FranciscoD calls dibs on VIM since /me did a classroom on it already 16:27:20 +1 vim rules 16:27:35 ok is there something else?
