I am back blogging

I am excited to be back in front of the camera after 7 months away.  I am shooting the videos in my home office now and over the coming weeks will tweak the various components from lighting to audio to support.  I have trial a direct upload from my screen capturing software, what do you think?  Do I need any of the intros etc?  I thought I would whack this video up as a test though.

Anyway I am excited to be back and look forward to being able to announce details of an exciting course I am writing on Online Video Production.

Christian iPhone App

I recently made a christian iPhone app for my wife's site, Daily Devotions.  I used a app making service online from appmakr.com.  I added Google Ads so I could better track impressions and use, and hopefully make a dollar or two to support the site.

Appmakr don't provide any reporting stats but the reports from both Feedburner and Google Adsense indicate between 700-1000 impressions a day and a reach (Feedburners term) of approximately 300-500 users per day.  Also we have seen a massive jump in listeners to the podcast.  The most recent sermon in the podcast section of the app has had over 500 downloads according to Feedburner.  This is a massive jump from the 10-25 downloads the files used to receive.

Later blogs I will provide statistics as I have today begun a SEO campaign to try and rank for the phrase Christian iPhone App, I will keep you posted.

Online Video Production

Producing online video for your company is becoming more and more important. Your clients want to "see and hear" if they can "feel" your product.  Camthecameraman has extensive experience in producing video for both offline and online markets.  From full Broadcast quality HD TV shows to "on-the-road" web cam reports, Cameron can handle them all.

Online Video Production requires different strategies to be successful and Cameron can talk you through all stages of production.  Whether its that you just need "a bit of help setting something up" or to hand off the entire production process Cameron can help.

Contact Cameron via his hotmail account camthecameraman at hotmail dot com (Sorry I cant write it properly, the last time I did that I got inundated with SPAM!!  I think it is fairly easy to understand though ;-) ) Alternatively if you are in Australia you may wish to try my mobile number which is 0413 642 965.

Online Video Production

Online Video Production is something I am very passionate about.  It is also something that this site doesnt rank for, that concerns me on two fronts: One, I should rank for phrases that I am passionate about and can offer value to organisations for and also I have been challenged to rank for phrases hard than the ones I have ranked for previously such as "Zappo the Clown" "Basane" and "Absolute Legend"

As an SEO strategist and video producer I thought it important to rank for a phrase like this and to make my details available for anyone who wants a video producer who fully understands the online space.  My work at industry leaders Stew Art Media allows me to pursue video production for the online space.

This challenge though is more about seeing if I can rank for this phrase "Online Video Production".  I do already rank number one in google.com.au for the phrase "video conversions melbourne" as a result of  an article I wrote on the adwords campaign of a company here in Melbourne.  I will keep the blog updated on this and other ranking attempts.  But his challenge maybe the hardest yet "Online Video Production"

In my article a week or so ago about the difference between Broadcast and Online I alluded to a decision I had to make.  I have made that decision and now that the appropriate people have been informed I feel I can now announce it here.

First I need to update those of you that havent read my CV, about my current work situation.  The decision was essentially about a new job but the issues I presented had a weighed heavily on my choice of new career.
