Quite som time since the last blogpost, but all for good reasons. Lots of stuff has happened the past four weeks and I’ll cover some of them in a blogpost later. For now, I just want to announce that I’ve joined Hyper Island’s Program Steering Committee for their Motion Graphics Program. Hyper Island has become world famous for their digital talent and now it’s time to conquer the world of motion graphics. Read More
Yesterday I wrote about the top 5 viral campaigns on Chatroulette. Today I’m going to list some guidelines on how you create such a viral. It’s (of course) not even close to a complete list, but mearly some thoughts on how you increase the chances of a success. Why do I post this list now, almost a year after Chatroulette almost disappeared? Because all of the these tips are valid no matter what service you decide to use as a communication vehicle. So wihtout further ado, how do you create a successful viral campaign on Chatroulette? Read More
Before Chatroulette went into oblivion (more or less, at least) we could see some pretty exciting viral campaigns that made use of this “new” way people started to communicate with each other. Now – a year later – I thought I might write down some thoughts on which ones where successful and why they succeeded. Read More
New beginnings!
During the summer I have finally had time to give the site some love. New design and new content. You can now find my portfolio here and I will update it with new noteworthy cases when they are launched.
How about all the content from the old site? It’s still on a harddrive here and some of it might be put on the new site, but a lot of it was related to my film work and the site has now swithed focus.
Interactive video is the main focus of the blog, and the idea is to have a place where I can collect my thoughts on the subject. The main language will be English, though you can expect some posts in Swedish as well if the subject of the post is local. Don’t forget to add me to your RSS reader or bookmark me.
I’ll see you soon!
In my last blog post I made some predictions of what we will see in the coming years. When I read through them I wonder if I was playing it to safe (except for my prediction about Apple including support for Flash in iOS). Well, here is one of the more wild predictions that didn’t make the cut. Read More
2010 has been an awesome year that brought us some great stuff when it comes to video. We have seen Chatroulette rise (and almost disappear after a very awkward upgrade process), Apple gave us the iPad and a brand new Apple TV, we have been following the interresting development of Piratebay with a trial here in Sweden, video chat is on everyones lips again with FaceTime and, recently, Skype’s mobile video chat, the year brought us some exciting interactive music videos with bands like Arcade Fire and Knight of Wands, we can now film HD video in our phones and Youtube has been overloaded with even more videos of cute kittens.
The list could go on forever and it’s very exciting to enter the new year and see what 2011 has in store for us. I know, I know. There are A LOT of 2011 prediction blogposts out there. I will try to stay away from the obvious ones and concentrate on subjects that relate to video. Here we go: Read More
Is there anything more satisfying than those two words put together? New beginnings and a bright new future ahead of us. This blog will be my collected thoughts on digital, interactive, video, cinema, financing of motion pictures, user participation and so on. But most of all I will try to mash all of those things together, because that’s where the most exciting things are happening right now.
I guess that’s all, for now. Check back in, put me in your RSS reader and feel very free to write your thoughts, criticism and comments on the subjects in the commentary field.
