The article’s conclusion, is that most amateurs are just happy for having their clips posted on sites for everybody to see. However, more and more media companies are offering prices or even paying for user generated content. Even Yahoo is said to have signalized that it is moving away from creating its on content in favor of user generated material – and are willing to pay for it.

So what is so compelling about user-created material?

  1. It is cheap
  2. It taps into the social aspect of interactive media

But while user-generated materials can attract a lot of attention and drive a lot of traffic to sites like Myspace , the article points out that so far it has not been regarded as a winning format for major advertisers. Myspace is adding up to a million registered users a week, but has attracted little advertising reveune relative to its audience.

In response to this, Viacom’s chief executive, Tom Freston, is qouted saying, “It’s like inserting the advertising into a conversation between two people, and there are still a lot of questions about advertisers supporting user-created content.”

Still, I believe that there really is a good window of opportunity for user-generated content sites and networks over the coming two years, because at the end of the day, its one of the things that makes people tick’. We are all looking for a stage, for a little fame even if it is not on a American Idol format level, but rather amongs our own little circle of friends and peers.

Ad Age tells us that that according to a study done by Frank N. Magid Associates ,among those actually planning to purchase a video iPod, 72% said they would be more likely to download a TV program in exchange for watching an ad. The Magid study surveyed 798 iPod owners between the ages of 12 and 55.

“It appears that the option to download content of choice for free will dramatically increase interest in purchasing a video iPod, thus potentially increasing video iPod sales and penetration,” the study concluded.

Adrants, says that this shows that people are cheap. Don’ t know about that, it seems to me that they are just smart. Why pay for something is some advertiser can?

Here’s a great story from about mobile phones and film-making from South Africa:

Here’s a great story from about mobile phones and film-making from South Africa:

South African director Ayran Kaganof, created the world’s first feature film shot entirely on cell phones. Equipped with eight cell phones, $160,000 Kaganof made SMS Sugar Man over 11 days! The movie tells the story of a pimp and two high-class prostitutes moving around Johannesburg on Christmas Eve.

The film will have its premiere in May will be screened on traditional cinema as well as in a truly innovative fashion – beamed to cell phones in three-minute episodes over a month.

Another amazing thing is that while a Hollywood picture usually cost around $40-$50 million (and easily exceeds $100 million) SMS Sugar Man only costed $160,000 to produce…

Could this be the future of film-making?

BTW, the brrreeeport sounds extremely familiar to a certain bodily sound that Adam Curry happens to let loose in the Daily Source Code on a regular basis like a 30 second spot…sponsored by (oh you know by whoom..). The worst thing is that even I find myself writing a post on it..Is this the sad true state of the blogosphere today, or is it just what makes people tick’?

Looking at the more serious side of it (if there is any..) when I was running a blog campaign for Samsung Mobile’s Anyfilms.net some time ago, I noticed that Google Blog Search by far out numbered Technorati and the others in tracking the posts. Technorati turned out to be really disappointing as a reliable tracking tool (which was a pity since I really like their service). The big surprise however, was MSN Search tracking far more blogs with the tag “anyfilms” than the others (after Google of course).
