"The Decision", the Monmouth Film Collective's 48 Hour Film Project short is now online at blip.tv and on YouTube. I've inserted the YouTube version below. blip offers better viewing, including a Quicktime version (best quality for online viewing, but it will take longer to load).

I've posted the Willamette Valley Film Collective's entry in the 2008 International Documentary Challenge to the web, both at blip.tv and YouTube. The YouTube version is inserted here, and links to the (better quality) blip.tv versions are below.

Taking some license, I'm sure, with a recent loosening of the International Documentary Challenge's warnings against posting entries online, I've put the Willamette Valley Film Collective's 2007 entry, "Visual Vitriol: The Art of Punk," up at lo-fi cinema on blip.tv. Our genre was "art" and the theme for the year was "faith." More details at blip.

If you're a Dazed and Confused (1993) fan, I suspect you'll like my newest post to lo-fi cinema. And even if you're not, it's an interesting, if minor, experiment with the pliability of digital media; I made the video from digital still photos taken of a TV broadcast of the movie on Encore. If nothing else, it's a short look.

Lo-Fi Cinema is now in the Miro Guide. I caught it on the "Just Added" page:

And here's a shot of the channel page:

My favored alternative to YouTube, YouAreTV, seems to be at loose ends and perhaps not long for this world. So, I recently opened an account at blip.tv. I've resisted this site because of how heavily it pushes the TV model, but after doing another round of research and taking a closer look at its features, I decided to sign up. I've also added my "show," Lo-Fi Cinema, to Miro. You can subscribe by clicking on the Miro button in my sidebar (this also the case on Short-Circuit Signs, my TypePad blog). Content will probably come in bursts rather than in regular episodes, but if you already use Miro, and your experience has been like mine, you'll probably appreciate having a few channels that only update periodically.
