Internet Television and Building Communities: Using Web Video to
Support Education, Research and Outreach

Presenters:
Larry Gallagher, Director, MIT Video
Chris Boebel, Manager, Multimedia Development, MIT Video
David Tames, Producer/Editor, MIT Video

Date: Friday Feb., 2, 2007, 2-3:30 pm
Location: MIT Building 32 (Stata Center), Room 32-141

Internet video, it seems, is suddenly everywhere. In less than a
year, YouTube and video podcasting have become cultural phenomena,
presenting everything from slick network and studio fare to ultra
low budget user-generated content.

Plans are currently being made to launch a "YouTube for MIT,"
tentatively called TechTV. The site will focus on supporting
science and technology education for the MIT community and beyond.
It will serve as an aggregator of existing MIT web video, and
provide a publishing venue for future user generated content with a
science focus. Its goals will be to serve a number of MIT
communities: faculty, students, the administration, alumni, and
prospective students, as well as to foster new communities
dedicated to creating and sharing media about science and technology.

This seminar will look at the rise of Internet video and user-
generated content on the web, and discuss how these new
distribution technologies might best serve the MIT Community. We'll
go through the Internet video publishing process and look at some
best practice cases for using video on the web.
