Journalism 2.0
How to survive and thrive in the digital age

This blog is a companion to the book I have written. It will teach current (and future) journalists the skills they need to do better journalism with the help of digital technology. More information about the book.

 

User generated audio and video all mixed up

One of the new companies given the spotlight at the highly touted TechCrunch 40 conference this week may be of interest to the online journalism field.

According to the TechCrunch blog:

StoryBlender is an online collaborative video production platform where people can work together to “blend” their content into a new multimedia show. StoryBlend’s online editing tool lets users create videos by “blending” images, sound, text, and video clips. When users have created new video blends they can then share it with their friends and the StoryBlend community.

I haven’t had a chance to play around with it, but at a glance, it looks like Soundlides plus video plus user generated content. Whether it takes off or not, it gives another clue to the direction online content is heading.
