Jason Hawkins is a winner. We’ve featured his SOLMI videos here before, and now he’s creating lots of video for other folks in town. I dig his motion graphics, camera work, and the way he (or his camera) captures color.

Also, props to Jason Seifer. Kissy face? Nice work, broseph.

On a very serious note, if you’re reading this blog, you should make plans to go to BarCampOrlando and do a presentation – if you’ve got short films, this is a great captive audience to show them in front of – 20 minute time slots. If you do a podcast or vlog, work in television, motion graphics, design, or anything of the sort, the second day in particular will be of interest to you and you should really sign up to present. As I said on my blog about BarCamp:

I’m recruiting presenters and attendees for the New Media Day. Be there, bring your A-game. (your B-game is equally welcome)

At the last event, I think everyone’s understanding that there were going to be some crazy awesome presentations as well as some mediocre ones was not very solid. I spoke to a few people who presented and said “I thought I was going to be all by myself in a room with like 5 guys all scratching their chins, but I was SO wrong”, the other half of them said “I thought about presenting, but I didn’t think I was ‘good enough’, but then I saw it was just a bunch of guys like me, so I’m going to blow them all out of the water this time”.

Really, those are you only two options. You should have either presented at last year’s BarCamp, or decided that you were definitely presenting at the next one. If you weren’t there, then take my word for it and create a presentation. Really.

- Why ask? This confirms you are a human user!

In this crazy hurricane we call Internet Video, I get a jones for finding things that were made in my backyard. I hope these little blogs can bring a bit of that joy to you, and maybe help you make a new friend. It's the least I can do.
