[nabs-l] Webcasting the NFB national convention career seminar. Whowants to help?

[Joe Orozco]

Jim,

Very well done.  What Peter says is true of webcasts.  Yet, if you're as
diligent in your initial planning, I would not be surprised if you found a
way to procure funding from divisions or people in the NFB to make the
project happen.  We'll make the material available online after the fact.
For now can-do, motivated people like yourself will see the project through
completion.  This is exactly the take-charge attitude I was hoping for, and
whether it is webcast or audio recording, the project will succeed because
you chose to step up and encourage others to come up with you.

Sincerely,

Joe Orozco

Hello all,
Several things need to happen to make the NFB national 
convention career seminar available to all on the web. To begin 
with, you need to vollenter to help. I may be going to the 
convention (pending a job interview tomarrow), if I go, I will 
be willing to do my part. But for now, I can get the ball 
rolling. If you are interested in helping out with some or all 
of the following task, please email me OFF LIST (I get the NABS 
list in digest format, so its better to meail be directly) 

First, we need to find the equipment. 
   1  Does anybody have, or have access to,  high-end A/V 
recording equipment?
   2.  If not, then the NFB/NABS needs to rent, or otherwize 
provide the equipment.
          1. NABS board members, what needs to happen to make 
those funda avaliable?
          2. The easiest thing would be to rent it in Detroit. 
We need to find out where.
          3. And we need to arainge for someone to pick-up and 
drop-off the gear.
          4. Perhaps the local college or high school A/V clubs 
would be willing to allow us
             to borrow their gear, or maybe even take on 
recording/production as a project.
          5. It may be worth while to contact the MI affiliate, 
or the Detroit chapter to find local
             resources. Any Michigan students on the list?
   3.  Due to compatability issues, we need to know the specs 
of the P.A. system that
        will be used in Detroit. Can anyone find that info? 

Next we need to focus on personell
    1. Depending on the lenght of the seminar, we may need 
several people willing to take
        turn running the camera. Who wants to take on recording duties?
     2. Depending on the equipment, we may need people running 
sound boards or what
        not. 
     3. Post-convention, we need someone to edit the raw footage
     4. Then we need to get it on the web. (Joe?)

Lastly, we need to contact the speaker
     1. It would be nice to find out her presentation plans so 
we can plan accordingly.
      2. It would be nice to post her slide shows or other A/V 
material along with the video.
      3. We need copies of any handouts, so that they can be 
scanned and upoaded. 
      4. To protect all of us, we need to secure written 
(signed, and dated) permission from
          the speaker to record and post her presentation and 
materials on the web. I know
         Joe mentioned that she already gave permission, but I 
wont take further action until I
         see a signed document. As President Ronald Regan said, 
"trust, but verify."

I hope to hear from you guys,
Jim
