I found this interesting from BJ's stint on a comedy on tv and web SXSW panel:
The question was asked of Novak if there was any scene that took off in a surprising way, and does he have a feedback loop for the content that is featured online? Novak said that remixes [fanvids] are watched very often and that fanvids are another way to for the fans to communicate with the show. He discussed how every day at lunch on the set of “The Office”, there is a “video DJ” who plays videos on everyone’s computer monitors on the set, and often these videos are fan remixes. He mentioned that everyone was thrilled with the recent Ryan Started The Fire fanvid. The writers can gauge interest in a particular topic from these videos. He also said that the feedback loop is different from TV to web. On the web, people see comments and hit counts and traffic links of where people found the content, whereas on TV, there is simply one Neilsen number.
Wow, that is really interesting. My fave is still the one called Emotionally Magnificent. It's very cool that they watch those.
That's some incredible video editing there. A little too choppy, perhaps, but impressively synchronized to a well-chosen song. That said, the first two and a half minutes made me really nostalgic for a show I used to love.
A little too choppy, perhaps,
Yeah, I was afraid it would give me a seizure. Which is why I decided to share it!
I love fanvids! I favorited a bunch of them last night (most of them I found here LOL)...my favorite is "Ryan Started The Fire".
So my girlfriend stumbled across this. A toast for Jim/Pam for OT's latest contest. Not bad...
No, he's not my brother.
