Podcamp Hawai’i Commercial
Hawai’i Geek Week is only a few weeks away, and I’ve shared that I will be on the panel at Mactoberfest. There are more events that I will be sharing in the coming days, but I wanted to highlight an experience of the merging of new and traditional media.
Closing out Hawai’i Geek Week is a 2-day unconference, Podcamp Hawai’i. One of the sponsors of this event is Road Runner who generously gave 300 30-second TV spots. Roxanne Darling and Shane Robinson, the new media minds of Barefeet Studios which produces the award-winning show, Beachwalks with Rox put out a casting call — no, not in a classified ad in the local newspapers but, via Twitter — two days before shooting.
Over a dozen people arrived at the majestic Hawai’i Convention Center, and we filmed a third take just for fun! So, the next time you’re watching Dis-n-Dat, Da Braddahs and Friends or high school football on OC16 — look for Lilinoe on the right of Roxanne or Ryan in his Wordpress shirt and even Jayden listening to his iPod shuffle. If you can’t wait, I’ve embeded the commercial in the right-side column of this site.
Join me at Podcamp Hawai’i!
