Seth Godin: Quieting the Lizard Brain</a><br />
<br />
<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/5895898" width="572" height="429" frameborder="0"></iframe><br />
<blockquote>Bestselling author and entrepreneur Seth Godin outlines a common creative affliction: sabotaging our projects just before we show them to the world. Godin targets our "lizard brain" as the source of these primal doubts, and implores us to "thrash at the beginning" of projects so that we can ship on time and on budget.</blockquote><br />
These quotes leapt out:<br />
<br />
SHIP ON TIME rather than being a wandering generality.<br />
<br />
What you do for a living (even webseries creators) is SHIP. You are not creative for a living. Everyone is creative.<br />
<br />
Why do human beings sabotage their work?<br />
The lizard brain.<br />
It's selfish, hungry, scared and horny.<br />
<br />
The resistance (to finishing a project) gets worse the closer we get to shipping.<br />
<br />
The genius part is to get the lizard brain to shut up.<br />
<br />
"I am really careful at the start of a project... to thrash it".<br />

<br />
Came across this web phenomenon, only after a few of years of trying to describe how people can collaborate on a series. It also proposes an answer to the question:<br />
"How do you share 'points' or profits with contributors on works that are still evolving?"<br />
<br />
-- They seem to call it The hitRECord Accord.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>What is hitRECord?<br />
<br />
HITRECORD.ORG is a project (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) started almost five years ago now, and in 2010, we evolved into a professional open collaborative production company. We create and develop art and media collaboratively here on our site. Even this introductory video is the remixed result of a great many contributions. So rather than just exhibiting and admiring each other's work as isolated individuals, we gather here to collectively work on projects together. Videos, writing, photography, music, anything -- we call them all RECords. <br />
<br />
Now and then, when I think something we've made has come out especially well, I approach the traditional entertainment industry to turn our work into money-making productions; and then we share any profits with the contributing artists.<br />
<br />
Are you RECording?</blockquote>MORE HERE:- <a href="http://www.hitrecord.org/reel" target="_blank">http://www.hitrecord.org/reel</a><br />

I've found one of the best ways to explain what we do here is just to show some of the "RECords" we've made together. So I've curated this small selection, many of which were recently screened at Sundance and SxSW. Now, the larger purpose of this place isn't merely to post and play the work of isolated individuals, but to collaborate as a community. So if you like what you see, check out our recently Featured RECords and Collaborations to join in and contribute to the next project. <br />

Okay, I admit it. I'm British.<br />
<br />
Which geographically means I am uncomfortable at selling.<br />
<br />
Which means I hate writing bold, provocative statements to drive sales.<br />
<br />
But what I have noticed is that using the formula tweet and blog post headers below does tend to increase page views and drive traffic to the links...<br />
<br />
<br />
So, wanted to link to these tips from <a href="http://www.copyblogger.com/10-sure-fire-headline-formulas-that-work/" target="_blank">http://www.copyblogger.com/10-sure-fire-headline-formulas-that-work/</a>, if only to have one place where I could click to have some ideas for wording those tweets and blog post headlines.<br />

Here are some more from <a href="http://www.copyblogger.com/proven-headline-formulas/" target="_blank">http://www.copyblogger.com/proven-headline-formulas</a><br />
<br />
<strong>1. Say it simply and directly. </strong><br />
No cleverness. No jokes. No wordplay. <br />
- The Ultimate Tax Shelter<br />
<br />
<strong>2. State the big benefit.</strong><br />
Transforming your major benefit into a headline. <br />
- Get a FREE vase when you buy a dozen roses.<br />
<br />
<strong>3. Announce exciting news.</strong><br />
The product or service doesn’t necessarily have to be newly created to qualify as news. <br />
- Now program your DVR by simply speaking to the revolutionary DVR VOICE programmer.<br />
<br />
<strong>4. Appeal to the “how-to” instinct.</strong><br />
The how-to must highlight the benefit or final result, not the process itself. Look at this example:<br />
- How to make money working from home with your PC.<br />
<br />
<strong>5. Pose a provocative question. </strong><br />
It must relate directly and clearly to the major benefit of the product. <br />
- How do I know which mutual funds may be right for me?<br />
<br />
<strong>6. Bark a command. </strong><br />
It’s not conversational, it’s dictatorial.<br />
- Stop wasting money on Web design. Use InstaSite to create your own Web site in minutes.<br />
<br />
<strong>7. Offer useful information.</strong><br />
What people really want is a sense of order and predictability in their lives. <br />
- Free brochure shows you how to end your money worries for good.<br />
<br />
<strong>8. Relay an honest, enthusiastic testimonial. </strong><br />
It capitalizes on the fact that people like to know what other people say.<br />
- “It’s the first book on personal finance that really made sense to me.”<br />
<br />
<strong>9. Authenticate your proposition with a little something extra.</strong><br />
Add a little something extra to your headline that seems out of place, yet rings true. <br />
- Small Company’s New Golf Ball Flies Too Far; Could Obsolete Many Golf Courses.<br />

My favourite free video conversion software - FreemakeI was going to write a post about the fact that I archive stuff onto my DVD recorder. I was finding it hard looking for free converters that bounce them straight into files you can then upload to youtube...<br />
<br />
I've put the initial trawl of free DVD conversion software below... but then I came across <br />
<a href="http://www.freemake.com/free_video_converter/" target="_blank">http://www.freemake.com<br />
<br />
<img border="0" height="391" width="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCA9YHoXOtiS1wTvnkZKrkizznf-zn_hwtB-5J1iVUhDufBTMH263ojwzYN_ryVno3Nx-Vr3wYWcOCJQtdlix2KQRccucbCuFBYiRpEY2SWI1kYqyDpDtd7CFkCyrmQSsHaiYy34URbo1S/s400/freemake.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
The others listed below are good - the conversions work, but man, freemake is a dream.<br />
<br />
<br />
The biggest problem I had was that my videos are in 16:9 widescreen FHA (Full Height Anamorphic).<br />
<br />
This means the video files are regular TV aspect ratio 4:3, which means the video files were being kept and ripped as 4:3 files. <br />
<br />
Freemake has an option to stretch to any size.<br />
So I just take my "DVD quality 720x576" file, and convert it to 1024x576, making sure to check the "adjustment" setting to "Stretch".<br />

It also allows you to edit your video into chunks, so you can cut off VT countdown clocks, or edit out segments before saving. And you can save at the same resolution, or convert to another size.<br />
<br />
All the free conversion software seems to do this to greater or lesser degrees -- this one was just really easy to use.<br />
<br />

And because I just wanted to know how to rip DVD to youtube videos, I've not even touched the other input and output formats it converts to...<br />
(Output to AVI, WMV, MP4, MKV, FLV, SWF, 3GP, MP3 Rip DVD movie to AVI, WMV, MP4, MPEG, MKV, FLV, SWF, 3GP. Convert video to Flash and embed it directly to your web page. Convert video and audio files to MP3. Convert Free to iPod, iPhone, iPad, PSP, PS3, Android)<br />

idea happen<br />
<br />
Finding a new community, one filled with people who are already doing<br />
what you want to be doing, will push you to accomplish it yourself.<br />
But only if you jump in.<br />
<br />
Think of your community as collaborators - not an audience.<br />
<br />
Celebrate every person who celebrates you.<br />
<br />
Don’t focus on the monetary aspect of a project too early - build your<br />
brand and community because you love it, and success will find you.</blockquote><br />

<blockquote>Astounding progress has been made by the United States government in the development of the once-theoretical Mach 24 jet engine. <br />
<br />
Fast jets, however, need fast pilots and a program to re-engineer aviators with accelerated reflexes and neural pathways capable of flying these fighters has been a disaster. Four prime candidates were upgraded. All four died horrifically. <br />
<br />
A fifth -- never meant as anything more than a disposable test subject -- has unexpectedly survived the strain to his nervous system. Hunted and confused, he is now a violent fugitive on the run from his grave.<br />

<blockquote>Squatter is an <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/webseries" target="_blank">original episodic comedy</a> about two jaded New Yorkers, Hank Pitman (Brendan Bradley) and Alex Selkirk (Erik Scott Smith), who vow to squat for an entire year. They've had enough of inflated Manhattan rent costs and have a plan for how to solve their housing dilemma. With Hank's frat boy charm and rugged good looks, he is confident that he can seduce women and "take them back to their place" for the night—housing problem solved, and some fun thrown in, too. Alex has a different approach: he is going to live at the office, sleeping in his cubicle and freshening up in the employee bathroom. <br />

<br />
From <a href="http://www.wired.com/techbiz/it/magazine/16-03/ff_free" target="_blank">wired.com:-</a><blockquote>Once a marketing gimmick, free has emerged as a full-fledged economy. Offering free music proved successful for Radiohead, Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, and a swarm of other bands on MySpace that grasped the audience-building merits of zero. The fastest-growing parts of the gaming industry are ad-supported casual games online and free-to-try massively multiplayer online games. Virtually everything Google does is free to consumers, from Gmail to Picasa to GOOG-411.<br />
<br />
The rise of "freeconomics" is being driven by the underlying technologies that power the Web. Just as Moore's law dictates that a unit of processing power halves in price every 18 months, the price of bandwidth and storage is dropping even faster. Which is to say, the trend lines that determine the cost of doing business online all point the same way: to zero.</blockquote>MORE HERE:-<br />

From <a href="http://www.newyorker.com/online/video/2006/10/09/predictable" target="blank">The New Yorker:-</a><blockquote>Malcolm Gladwell talks about success in the film industry and engineering hits. From the 2006 New Yorker Festival.</blockquote>LINK HERE:-<br />

<br />
Gladwell covers Dear Frankie, the Death of Diana, The Interpreter, and nobody knowing what constitutes the sublime.<br />
And a great summary here from <a href="http://thekriegergroup.com/blog/?p=18" target="blank">The Krieger Group:-</a><blockquote>Several years ago, Malcolm Gladwell gave an interesting talk for The New Yorker Festival in which he reported on a group of researchers who had developed algorithms to predict whether a script could be developed into a hit movie. The researchers used a technique called neural networks to predict, based upon elements of the script, if the movie would be a box office smash. In fact, the researchers were able to predict the profitability of a movie accurately 6 out of 9 times, even before the director or cast was chosen. In several cases they were within several million dollars. Now 6 out of 9 may not seem great, but Hollywood’s record is poor; successfully predicting gross revenues on only 1/3 of their movies (after all, if they did not think it was going to be profitable they would make the film, unless its Woody Allen).</blockquote>MORE HERE:-<br />

This is more of a <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/writing" target="_blank">writing resource</a> for myself.<br />
<br />
You'll either find the next four columns extremely useful, or a complete waste of screen space.<br />
<br />
Either way, they will be permanently linked with all the other <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/writing" target="_blank">WRITING</a> <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/Resources" target="_blank">RESOURCES</a> in the sidebar down the right hand side.

<a href="http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/000932.html" target="blank">HOW TO BE CREATIVE by Hugh MacLeod.</a> <blockquote><a href="http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/000932.html" target="_blank"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5284235083276089058" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjK476b3cGZejv3Qcrz92b9YFE-p2NPHy4OElrj0xRGh_mh7GthlnhFGtu3sywej7OzgbTT_gSWUnOD9ci1qkZ_xFaIOLx6F2MXh7vWuWZGAk6i4ws9xyqMF6-oMev6_zArEnma75YirYLw/s400/GAPINGVOIDHUGH.jpg" align="right" border="0" /></a>So you want to be more creative, in art, in business, whatever. Here are some tips that have worked for me over the years:<br />
<br />
1. Ignore everybody.<br />
2. The idea doesn't have to be big. It just has to be yours.<br />
3. Put the hours in.<br />
4. If your biz plan depends on you suddenly being "discovered" by some big shot, your plan will probably fail.<br />
5. You are responsible for your own experience.<br />
<br />
6. Everyone is born creative; everyone is given a box of crayons in kindergarten.<br />
7. Keep your day job.<br />
8. Companies that squelch creativity can no longer compete with companies that champion creativity.<br />
9. Everybody has their own private Mount Everest they were put on this earth to climb.<br />
10. The more talented somebody is, the less they need the props.<br />
<br />
11. Don't try to stand out from the crowd; avoid crowds altogether.<br />
12. If you accept the pain, it cannot hurt you.<br />
13. Never compare your inside with somebody else's outside.<br />
14. Dying young is overrated.<br />
15. The most important thing a creative person can learn professionally is where to draw the red line that separates what you are willing to do, and what you are not.<br />
<br />
16. The world is changing.<br />
17. Merit can be bought. Passion can't.<br />
18. Avoid the Watercooler Gang.<br />
19. Sing in your own voice.<br />
20. The choice of media is irrelevant.<br />
<br />
21. Selling out is harder than it looks.<br />
22. Nobody cares. Do it for yourself.<br />
23. Worrying about "Commercial vs. Artistic" is a complete waste of time.<br />
24. Don't worry about finding inspiration. It comes eventually.<br />
25. You have to find your own schtick.<br />
<br />
26. Write from the heart.<br />
27. The best way to get approval is not to need it.<br />
28. Power is never given. Power is taken.<br />
29. Whatever choice you make, The Devil gets his due eventually.<br />
30. The hardest part of being creative is getting used to it.<br />
<br />
31. Remain frugal.<br />
32. Allow your work to age with you.<br />
33. Being Poor Sucks.<br />
34. Beware of turning hobbies into jobs.<br />
35. Savor obscurity while it lasts.<br />
<br />
36. Start blogging.<br />
37. Meaning Scales, People Don't.<br />
38. When your dreams become reality, they are no longer your dreams.</blockquote><br />

Re-posting some of my best <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/webseries" target="_blank">webseries</a> links and posts through August.<br />
<br />
Wanted to take another look at this, because it was so damn weird. <br />
<br />
The video explains and ties up everything, but it was a real time journey webcast event, as narrative.<br />

Okay.<br />
<br />
This is *really* different. But you have to catch it quick, as it seems to end on December 24th.<br />
<br />
It takes a while to load and click through, and I'm still not fully sure what it's all about.<br />

From <a href="http://www.lovedistance.jp/" target="blank">lovedistance.jp:-</a><br />
<blockquote>From Tokyo to Fukuoka,<br />
one long distance relationship.<br />
The distance, over 1000km.<br />
<br />
The relationship, 2 and half years so far.<br />
A man from Fukuoka, a woman from Tokyo,<br />
to prove their love, they run.<br />
<br />
This documentary is, until the saintly night of Dec 24th when the reunion happens, broadcasting the two's running paths. Their text messages, blogs and video chats, are open to the spectators in real-time.<br />
<br />
This documentary will, for about a month, continue living in real-time.<br />
We the audience, is going to observe their love relationship for the next one month to reconsider this monster, "love".<br />
<br />
In order to virtually experience their long distance relationship, a male is directed to "a man" site, a female is directed to "a woman" site, in other words, you will be separated apart. This takes away internet freedom.<br />

To tell a truth, this documentary is an advertisement. On the saintly night of Dec 24th, the client will be revealed.

Spending August revisiting some of my <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/FAVOURITE%20POSTS" target="_blank">favourite posts</a> and <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/web%20series" target="_blank">web series</a>.<br />
<br />
This one isn't a <a href="http://storygas.blogspot.com/search/label/webseries" target="_blank">webseries</a> - it was a one-off web event - which, in itself is an interesting take on how to use online release to create a buzz and possibly a community around your project?<br />

From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Horrible%27s_Sing-Along_Blog" target="blank">wikipedia:-</a> <blockquote>Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog is a 43-minute musical film, initially produced exclusively for Internet distribution. It tells the story of Dr. Horrible, the aspiring supervillain alter ego of Billy; Captain Hammer, his nemesis; and Penny, their mutual love interest.<br />
<br />
The movie was written by writer/director <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joss_Whedon" target="_blank">Joss Whedon</a>, his brothers Zack Whedon (a television writer) and Jed Whedon (a composer), and Jed's fiancée, actress Maurissa Tancharoen. The writing team penned the musical during the WGA writers' strike. The idea was to create something small and inexpensive, yet professionally done, in a way that would circumvent the issues that were being protested during the strike. On October 31, 2008, <a href="http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1852747_1854195_1854133,00.html" target="_blank">Time Magazine named it #15 in Time's Top 50 Inventions of 2008</a>.</blockquote>MORE HERE:-<br />

So... What's it about, and why is it special?<br />
<br />
From <a href="http://station.newteevee.com/2008/07/11/dr-horrible-preview-whedon-rocks-the-blog/" target="blank">NewTeeVee:-</a><br />
<blockquote>Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, Joss Whedon’s web series, is a bold experiment in online distribution — the series will be available for free for just one week before becoming available on DVD and possibly download — but it’s also damn entertaining. <p></p><p>The tale of an aspiring supervillain told mostly in song, this WGA strike-spurred project treads an odd line between the professional and the amateur, making full use of Whedon’s considerable resources while still carrying a whiff of we-don’t-need-no-stinking-permits filmmaking. The end result is kinetic and inspired, while still bearing the trademark wit and pathos of a Whedon project.</p></blockquote>MORE HERE:-<br />
