Re: Re: Re: Re: multimedia


Hi Vincent, Sydney is a bit doubtful for me at the moment as I'm about to leave the ABC and begin work at Radio New Zealand. However I'd love to be able to present, discuss and share the experience of Sharkfeed with interested makers. I've already been contacted by a couple of people which has been really terrific.


Best wishes, Matthew

dear Matthew,


hope to meet again in Sydney! We'll see if we can do something with your project on next IFC; we'll discuss that on our next projectgroup meeting in February in Brussels. See you at your place,


Vincent

Replying to:


Hey Vincent, thanks for your message. The SHARKFEED site was put together by three people. An artist who was a writer/photographer who developed the 'storyboard' and handled the overall direction of the visual material, a graphic designer/programmer who really worked out how to deliver it, and I did co-writing and sound design. It has been designed to be hosted within the features and documentary area of ABC arts (radio-eye) and needed to fulfill all the usual editorial expectations of that. It was made with quite a large sum of monetary assistance from the Australian Film Commission. A version of the work was also displayed at the Museum of Sydney last year during the Olympics.




Most interesting thing from the sound point of view is the degree of limitation imposed by RealAudio. The main thing is that things that would work as say, a stereo mix, DON'T work for the web. We also had to scale it down to the lowest level of delivery to ensure that the majority of people could access it - which was the main reason for doing it in the first place.




In our case - I have to say that I have been very disappointed with the response from the official MULTIMEDIA types here at the ABC who seem incapable of talking about CONTENT at all... they can only talk standards. An interesting attempt to bring elements of the radio feature/documentary to the internet. Very keen to hear what others will make of this...




Best wishes to radio-making colleagues everywhere, especially those I had the pleasure to meet in Warsaw....

OK Matthew, thanks a lot. How are things over there? Didn't we last meet in Warsawa? And didn't you travel to Greece??


I can advise others: visit www.abc.net.au/sharkfeed


and surpise yourself. Hannu and I will see what we can do with this. Untill now we're collecting possible contributions for the workshop. Looks good what you've made.


Did you design it, was it a team? Were they internet-spcialist or (radio) documentarymakers? About this we'll be in contact late,r


Hope we'll meet in your place, Sydney of the third millenium.


Greetings, have a good Christmastime over there (no snow, it must be paradise) and beautiful New Year!
