Keynote: Blog World Expo “The Future of Video”

Meet me in Las Vegas with Dermot McCormack, EVP, Digital Media, MTV Music Group, Dick Glover, President and CEO of Funny or Die and Jim Louderback, CEO of Revision 3.

BWE Keynote

Questions I plan to ask:

  • “What are some cool ways and tools to make it interactive as well as how best to monetize?”
  • “What’s the mix of video going to mobile clients (iPhone, Android, etc.) vs. computer today and what do they expect it to be a year from now?”
  • “I’ve been running sales at blogTV for almost a year.  We are a big player in the live video broadcasting space.  Anyone with internet connection and webcam can broadcast live to an audience and said audience can interact directly via real-time chat.  It’s social meets video and really gives meaning to “social media”.  So…was hoping that you would include “live video” in your keynote since I noticed your topic is “the future of web video.”
  • If you don’t have an app strategy you are nowhere.
  • The video, in the end, doesn’t matter as much as the community you are able to aggregate around your video property.
  • We’re rapidly moving to a “best screen available” world, where video is viewed on whatever happens to be lying around.
  • Retinal displays are going to be wall sized in 10 years.
  • What category of video, in descending order, is most popular/most frequently consumed? (Glover)
  • Where is the bar now online for web video production? What is a no no? A deal killer? What is the latest technique or production capability that sets an online video publisher apart/above the competition? (Glover)
  • How do you differentiate yourself from your competitors?
  • What are three deadly mistakes a blogger or online publisher frequently makes with their video content?
  • What’s the newest growth area for online video?
